Fox 36 fact we fought with a grip tube
1:03
dampener shorter offsets or a 44

1:10
it's actually a sixty four point five
1:12
degree head angle on this short stem and
1:15
a nice long reach so this is a large you

nice and long nice it's like great for
1:24

1:26
as well yet you've steamed up the seat
1:28
angle on it 77 degrees so that mean it
1:30
will just you know climb really well
1:32
digging great on the climbs so whether
1:33
you're riding between stages or trail
1:35
centers whatever you are on horrible
1:37
cold Adel climbs yes what we're gonna do

1:44
shock all new suspension out and does it
1:47
all new completely on your frame room
1:49

1:51
bash guard on the bottom there so to
1:53
stop any kind of rock strikes yes you
1:56
switch infinity patented switch infinity
1:59
suspension system which is tuned for
2:01
their at the 150 mil travel and this
2:04
this gives great anti-squat
2:05
characteristic so great still great on
2:07
climbing that's one of the yetis
2:09
was known for great climbing great
2:10
descending and so is the rear axle moves
2:13
up which this this carriage slides
2:15
upwards on the to 2-shot asan and then
2:17
near the end of stroke it moves back the
2:19
other way just to give it a real nice
2:20
bottom almost kind of feel so you don't
2:23
really feel like any kind of harsh
2:24
bottom out so which would be great on a
2:25
bite like this where you you're tackling
2:27
anything from DWS stage to to Scotland
2:30
to Wales to your local trails so yeah so
2:32
