hi guys,

im currently a mechanical engineer student at glasgow caledonian university.

for my dissertation im looking at the stresses and strains between 15QR and QR on the fox suspension fork to see if there is a big difference.

but what i wanted to know was if anyone on here knew what material the fox lowers were made out of ? i have searched the internet and cant see anything along with emailing fox themselves without a reply.

if anyone knew that would be awesome ๐Ÿ™‚

thanks in advance

Not sure, I think is Magnesium.

Be interested on hearing your findings as to whether QR15 is stiffer than std QRs and by how much.
