  • 160mm Fox 36's – other options?
  • stevied
    Free Member

    I’ve got some 150mm Float 32’s and have decided I want to go for a little more travel for my Intense.
    I’ve had 160mm 36’s in Talas variety before and liked them but that was 6 years ago.
    What other options are there? Any recommendations?

    160MM 34’s. Save some weight on the 36’s. Very impressed with mine so far!

    I’ve just gone from fox 36 float R to a Rock Shox Lyric Rc2 Dh for and it really good. I’m very happy with it and I got them new from Germany for £575.

    Lots to think about then.. DeVille’s might be too much money. Lyrik’s look like possibility, where you get them form @rhysw?

    If the new Pike lives up to the hype, that, have mine ordered already, if not Devilles.

    Marzocchi 55 are a little heavier, but I’m guessing g you are after a more gravity focused bike, so not the be all and end all. 2010+ Marzocchi reliability is much better than previous years.

    +1 for 55 RC3 having had two sets of Fox 36s

    BOS Devilles are much the same price as Fox 36s

    Quality fork, long service intervals, mega stiff and their UK support system is now a lot better

    I think you’ll find some around in the sales as well

    I’m a big fan

    My 2010 55s are mint – better than my 36s and almost certainly less troublesome.
