Description
The Undisputed Enduro Leader
Composure in the chaos. When the track gets wild at race speed, the 38 doesn’t flinch.
While many challengers have followed with 38mm Enduro forks, the FOX 38 has remained on top since it's debut in 2020, this past year winning 2025 EDR World Championships under Richie Rude and Elly Hoskings. Now, the latest evolution brings all our most recent developments into a fresh, ground-up design that preserves weight, while increasing performance and fine-tuning ride feel.
Available from 160 to 180mm of travel, the 38 continues to define modern Enduro - built to charge hard, race flat-out, and tackle the steepest terrain with total confidence.
Support Without Harshness
GRIP X2 is the most tunable, supportive and smoothest descent-focused damper ever created by FOX. Sit higher in the travel, keep tires glued to the ground and corner with increased traction, all while reducing overall rider fatigue.
High Stiffness. Low Friction.
Using the learnings gained from the FOX Podium, we increased bushing overlap by 20mm to push the fore-aft stiffness by approximately 9% while reducing friction under load at high speed. The new arch optimizes torsional stiffness even further for steering responsiveness and handling.
Smooth Under Pressure.
The seamlessly compliant FLOAT Glidecore air spring reduces friction and bind by moving with the fork under dynamic load. Large cross-section O-rings dampen and control this motion while also reducing breakaway friction of the air spring. The result? Smoother suspension action.
