Fox Suspension 34 Float SC Factory Remote ForkIf you’re serious about gaining a competitive advantage on the toughest cross country (XC) racing trails, the 34 Float SC Factory model is the ideal mountain bike (MTB) fork choice. Its Kashima coated stanchions ensure super-smooth travel to help you maintain your speed over tree roots, rock gardens and anything else the trail throws at you.Part of Fox Suspension’s renowned Factory Series, this suspension fork is specifically tailored for the cross country (XC) racing with a build that’s feature-packed and to exceed the demands of Factory-level riders. It’s equipped with an updated chassis that’s 15% stiffer than the 32 standard model as well as a revised arch shape that offers improved head tube clearance with shorter rakes. Developed from the ground up to deliver uncompromised XC racing performance, it’s also kitted out with a Float EVOL air spring and a FIT4 3-Position damper for a high level of tuneability and control. Coming complete with a genuine Kashima upper tube coating that’s slippery smooth and ultra-durable, this is a great choice of upgrade for dependable front-end suspension performance on the most demanding of racing conditions.XC Fork with Float EVOL Air SpringReturning with the same legendary suppleness and longevity, the EVOL air spring in 34’s now has an enlarged negative air spring to assist with mid-stroke support. The 34 SC also comes with the option to tune the negative air spring with a volume spacer.FIT4 3-Position DamperIn its fourth generation, Fox Suspension’s patented FIT4 closed cartridge system provides three on-the-fly compression damping positions (Open, Medium, and Firm) to adapt to varying trail conditions. Factory Series forks feature an additional 22 clicks of low-speed compression adjust in the Open mode, allowing riders to fine-tune their exact damping preferences.Features: Upper Tube Finish: Genuine Kashima Use: Cross Country (XC) Axle: Kabolt 110mm Boost Air Spring: Float EVOL air spring Damper: FIT4 3-Position Remote Push to Lock (PTL) Steerer Diameter: 1.5" tapered Wheel Size: 29" Max Tyre Size: 29x2.40" Rotor Size: 160mm direct Post Mount, Up to 180mm compatible Remote Compatible: Yes (sold separately) Offset: 44mm Weight: 1496g (starting weight)Technologies: Factory Series: “Factory” says it all - feature-packed and designed to exceed the demands of Factory-level riders. What we sell is what they race. Factory Series products feature slippery smooth, ultra-durable Genuine Kashima Coat Adjustments: Three on-the-fly compression damping positions Open, Medium, Firm. Additional low-speed compression (Open mode adjust) 22 clicks, Low-speed rebound 10 clicks Lower Leg Bypass Channels: As 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. Fox Suspension’s 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. Another benefit of these channels is that lower leg bath oil is circulated to the upper reaches of the lower legs, continuously lubricating the foam rings and bushings as the fork compresses and extends through its travel Lower Leg Arch: Stiffness-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. Modern frame designs and geometry trends require modern suspension design solutions. The arch design is designed to pair perfectly with modern trail bikes. Head tube profiles have grown larger and larger, and fork offsets shorter and shorter. Fox Suspension’s new arch shape takes this need into account by jutting forward to provide ample headtube clearance at full compression. State-of-the-art computer modeling techniques helped us to create an organic lower leg shape that optimizes stiffness with the absolute minimal amount of materialBuy Fox Suspension Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
