Fox Racing Shox 36 Float 29 Factory E-Optimized Grip X - Black 2026

The 36 Float Factory GRIP X is the ultimate All-Mountain fork! Designed for aggressive riding, it relies on a stiff 36 chassis and 160 mm travel to deliver Enduro-level performance—without the weight of a Gravity fork.

This e-Optimized version has been specially reinforced to withstand the additional stresses of electric mountain bikes.

The latest evolution of this iconic fork features a redesigned arch for greater torsional stiffness (+20% vs. the previous model), air/oil bypass channels to improve lubrication, and a floating Kabolt-X axle for better stanchion alignment and minimal friction.

Its FLOAT Glidecore air spring provides a more fluid and consistent feel under dynamic load, delivering smoother and more responsive suspension over repeated impacts.

Hydraulic-wise, the fork uses the GRIP X damper: a lightweight, ultra-precise Trail cartridge with 3-way adjustability (rebound, low-speed compression, high-speed compression) and a quick-access FIRM mode—ideal for efficient pedalling between technical sections.
