36 E-Optimized Factory GRIP X/X2 Suspension Fork

The award winning 36 continues its all-mountain domination with a reinforced chassis to handle the increased loads of eMTB and World Cup EDR-E racing. Available in both trail-focused GRIP X and gravity-focused GRIP X2 damper options.

• GRIP X damper exudes exemplary descent performance, refined for less weight, easier set up and an easy access firm mode for pedaling efficiency
• Generative design-assisted lower leg arch shape increases torsional stiffness by 20%, while reducing overall material
• Additional 30mm bushing overlap than the prior model 36, reduces chassis friction, increasing stiffness and boosting performance
• New compliant FLOAT EVOL air spring design allows for a slight misalignment under load, reducing chassis friction noticeably
• Lower leg bypass channels were relocated 90° inboard to a lower stress area, reducing dynamic friction under bending forces
• Double-butted stanchion (on damper side) shaves weight, helping us achieve goal of zero weight increase
• New air spring top cap for easier air volume adjustments, removable with cassette tool (Sold separately)
• Redesigned bleeders are sleeker and easier to operate
• Kabolt X axle shaves grams while increasing torsional stiffness via a sleeveless, single-sided pinch bolt design
• Kashima Coating on upper tubes for added smoothness and durability
