Basically I was wondering if it live up to your expectations in terms of reduced stiction and added durability?
To be honest, I bought my 36 Floats so everyone else would know I had more money than them.
Best upgrade ever. I couldn't go back to riding a non-Kashima fork now.
I like your style Ox
Care to expand on that doof?
I got enduro seals and use fork juice and their seems to be no difference between that and my mates kashima's!!
No particular maintenance on mine & not a sign of wear. I just wash round the seals then lube with some garlic infused olive oil.
(Keeps the Vampires off.)
the bushings, kashima coat and stanchions are bolloxed on my 180 36's
That's coz Fox are shite 🙂

My 36 Floats are fine a year on, service them regually anyway theyre super slippy. If Fox were charging extra on top Im not sure I would buy it as an extra.......Devilles are too close in price
Sorry, I was being a bit tongue in cheek. My '11 Van is leagues better than my old '08 Float 36, but a lot changed in those 3 years. I saw a worn kashima fork on mtbr, but I always take those stories with a healthy dose of salt.
Funny how you don't hear about Canadian riders complaining about stanchion wear, and those forks must get some of the most abuse in pretty horrible conditions.
