from San Diego Date Reviewed: June 1, 2008 Strengths: The travel settings of 100-130-160mm are perfect. Super burly and stiff without a huge weight penalty. Adjustments are easy to use and it's easy to get dialed in. Fox's version of the thru-axle is super easy to use as well. Most importantly--it's a FOX. Weaknesses: None!! Price is a little high, but I got a smokin' deal on mine. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Noble Canyon Duration Product Used: 3 months Purchased At: BB Similar Products Used: Marzocchi AMSL 1--total crap. Fox Vanilla. Fox 32 TALAS Bike Setup: Yeti 575.

from Boulder, CO Date Reviewed: April 29, 2008 Strengths: 20mm Axle, Super Plush and probably the smoothest fork i've ever felt once it is set up right. All the knobs are really low key and burley so they dont get in the way of anything. The 08 is really light for what it is Weaknesses: None really, I guess I thought it wasn't that great before i set it up right but now its total butter Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Similar Products Used: Fox 32 RLC, Fox F100 Bike Setup: Giant Reign 0: 36 RC2, Mavic Crossmax SX wheels, Avid Juicy 7's and all the other parts that came on the bike

from Bristol, UK Date Reviewed: November 27, 2007 Strengths: Very strong and stiff with the thru axle, plush, responsive. Adjustable compression Weaknesses: Not as good traction as a coil sprung fork. The advances this year in damping make it almost pointless difference especialy with the weight and adjustability advantage Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: mybigtoesituatedonmyleftfoot@gmail.com Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $800.00 Purchased At: Ebay Similar Products Used: Z1, Float 32.

from Orlando Fl. Date Reviewed: September 9, 2007 Strengths: FOX out-did themselves this time. This fork is absolutely awesome. I have always been a Marzocchi fan, but ever since Marzocchi announced that there Italian made fork's will be made in (((China)))I had to drop them. FOX put there engineer's to work to make, in my opinion the lightest, stiffest, most well rounded all mountain/free-ride/cross-country fork ever. The FOX 36 with its new 20mm skewer quick-release is yet an other remarkable plus. I can take my front wheel off nearly as fast as the non-20 mm skewers I used to have. You are not going to get any complaints from me on this product. FOX is proud of there fork's and there $$$expensive$$$ but you get what you pay for and FOX is American made. Thats all I needed to know. I posted some pic's of my baby! She rides like a Cadillac!!! Enjoy! http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=6555637 Weaknesses: NONE!
