Yeah, like I look at the News stuff.

seems asif the market for tough SC forks has been nopted by producers, marzocchi 66, RS pike (or is it the reba? ones a XC fork ,the other 'freeride') and now the fox 36.
Should be good, esp for all the "freeriders" out there who, at the moment have a relatively small SC fork selection that are also able to handle other forms of riding.

 

[Ride_Guy]

well hopefully manitou wont own it at burly SC fork market. But way back 5" sc forks were just like WWWWOOOOAAAAAAA. So it could just be progression.

Looks the goods, hope the price isn't too outrageous.

I wonder why Fox went with the "36" name? I suppose 666 might have been pushing it.

 

[Ride_Guy]

FOX is pushing technology ahead again by using oversized 36 mm upper tubes which allow the fork to handle extreme loads, offer excellent strength v's weight, and once again provide unparalleled steering precision. The 36 is equipped with TALAS adjustable travel system, allowing the rider to tune their travel from 110mm to 150mm and will weigh under 5 pounds in its’ single crown, 1-1/8 steer configuration. Similar to the new FOX DH fork, the 36 has a stepped 20mm thru-axle allowing the lower leg to settle into a lower friction point.

Maybe thats why.....

to put a out a top of the line sherman
using 1.125 headtube to give
the rest of the forks some competition
