| 04/18/2001 | The Fox ForxFox has been making rear shocks for suspension bikes and motorcycles for several years. Now they have added a front shock to their line of shocks. Fox has put a lot of R&D into their forks and these forz will retail for $400 to $600 depending on the model.
The Fox Forx has Precision Steering Control which is a chassis design in which the geometry and engineering created by FOX has developed the best "stiffness to weight" ratio suspension fork on the market. The lower leg and steerer-crown-upper tube assembly make up the slidable chassis of a suspension fork. The design of these parts determines the rigidity, steering precision and stability of a suspension fork. A rigid, stable, chassis slides easier under high bump and braking loads because the bushings are not binding onto the upper tubes. The super-lightweight forks on the market today spend as much time bending fore and aft as they do cycling up and down when negotiating high speed bumps.
The Fox Lubrication System (FLS) automatically lubricates all key parts during every compression stroke of the fork. FLS consists of creating passage ways on many of the internal parts and pumping oil to the key parts where friction is present.
The Shimmed Damping Control (SDC) is the new damper system used in all FOX FORX models. Both compression and rebound oil flows through independent sophisticated multi-stage blended circuits to maximize suspension control. The sophisticated circuits automatically give you the correct amount of damping for any given shaft speed.www.foxracingshox.com
