2026 FOX 36 FACTORY

All-mountain riders are pushing their bikes harder than ever, driven by advancements in frame design, components, and tire technology. With the new 36, we set out to elevate the performance of these boundary-pushing bikes—delivering a fork that not only meets but exceeds the demands of modern riders. The new 36 combines the confidence-inspiring Enduro feel of the 38 with a category-optimized design that’s lightweight, responsive, and playful. Big fork energy without the weight.

Since 2005, the FOX 36 has led the single crown fork market with best-in-class performance and unrivaled stiffness-to-weight ratio.

The latest evolution of the revered 36 brings big fork energy to All-Mountain riding. An updated chassis and significant increase in bushing overlap adds 20% torsional stiffness over the previous 36, approaching the steering responsiveness of the 38.

A new compliant FLOAT air spring and inboard bypass channels make 36 considerably smoother throughout its travel, especially when engaged at higher loads and at faster speeds.

All-Mountain riders are pushing their bikes harder in rougher terrain and want no compromise in their bike’s handling. The 36 gives riders a true Enduro ride feel of a 38, without the weight.
