Fox 32s @ On-One, every one might know about these and those that don't I am not sure I should be telling! I was just having a look to see how the carbon frames are coming along (just looking...) and see a link to these....

People have mentioned them before, but they don't suit the current trend which has gone away from traditional 9mm axles.

They don't come with shock pumps you know. It's a scandal! Nearly wipes out the £400 saving off RRP 😆

Shit!!!

You mean if I bought those and fitted them to a bike I wouldn’t actually be “on trend”? Christ how could they sell such products the chancing gits….

Exactly! And obviously you wouldn't be forced to buy a new front wheel too 😉

Well we can’t have that...

I’ll get some Mavericks instead; I like my forks expensive, unreliable and with the axle as non-standard as possible…

and you can fit spacers to take the travel down to 120mm or 100mm travel so they fit frames designed for 'just riding around' too. It's a disgrace I tell you.

Edit...

Is the travel adjust straight forward?

travel can be adjusted easy peasy, you dont need to send em to mojo or tf or whoever, just need to put some spacers in the leg (im sure theres a how to on tinternet somewhere) and fannys your aunt or uncle 😉

there's a 'how to' on their site too. you can perm any combination of spacers as well, which is nice.

They are the F120 Rs, not float RLs though

True, but 20mm travel is not that much difference, and personally I never use lockout so a simpler fork with less to go wrong is more appealing. And they're bolt through.

Lockout an travel aside, the F-series and Float are totaly different forks though. The F-series is the lightweight xc version and I read somewhere that you can't adjust the travel with internal spacers like you can on the float.

its not actually a 9mm QR its a standard QR

if you have compatible hubs; dt, spesh, halo, some bonty, hope

you can get a 9mm thru axle to beef up stiffness
