34 Step-Cast Factory 29" Fork

The lightest 34 ever, the all-new 34 Step-Cast is designed from the ground up to deliver uncompromising XC race performance with class-leading tunability, chassis stiffness and strength.LOWER LEG BYPASS CHANNELSAs a fork compresses, the air volume within the lower legs decreases, increasing air pressure. The more the fork compresses, the more pressure increases. This effect can have the unintended consequence of preventing full travel from being achieved. The lower leg channels help alleviate this issue by dramatically increasing air volume within the lower legs and thereby reducing the amount of additional unintended pressure ramping.LOWER LEG ARCHStiffness-to-weight is the ultimate metric for bicycle design. Engineers invest countless hours poring over every ounce of material in an effort to optimize this critical ratio. The all-new 34 pulls out all the stops, shaving every possible gram while making sure not to compromise the stiffness or strength requirements of modern trail riding.FLOAT EVOLReturning with the same legendary suppleness and longevity, the EVOL air spring in the fox 34 now has an enlarged negative air spring to assist with mid-stroke support.FIT4The fourth generation FIT4 closed cartridge system provides three on-the-fly compression damping positions: Open, Medium, and Firm, to adapt to varying trail conditions.Details:Wheel Size: 29"Included Axle: Kabolt 110Damper: FIT4Upper Tube Finish: Kashima CoatRotor Size: 160 direct Post Mount, Up to 180 compatibleAir Spring: FLOAT EVOLSteerer: 1.5 TaperStarting Weight: 29 3.30 lb / 1496 g (F-S, 34 SC, 29", 120mm Travel, Kabolt 110, 3Pos-Adj)*
