The Fox Podium Factory Grip X2 29" Fork delivers downhill-level performance in a single crown package, combining unmatched stiffness, class-leading smoothness, and precision damping control. Its inverted design, oversized components, and custom Grip X2 damper work together to give riders total confidence when charging technical terrain, steep descents, or high-speed race lines.Key Features and Benefits:Oversized 47mm upper tubes and generatively-designed crown: This overbuilt design boosts fore-aft rigidity to levels close to the dual-crown FOX 40. This means the fork resists flex under hard braking and rough impacts, so riders can hold lines with more precision at speed.Custom 20x110mm steel Boost DH axle: Larger than the usual 15mm standard, this axle adds vital torsional stiffness where inverted forks lack an arch. The result is more responsive steering and control under cornering loads, especially on technical trails.175mm bushing overlap in the inverted chassis: Increased overlap reduces friction and spreads load more evenly across the fork. This delivers smoother performance when the fork is under stress, giving the rider more stability and better traction in rough terrain.GlideCore air spring with lateral and axial compliance: Built to move with the fork under load, not against it. This reduces internal stress, improves tracking, and keeps the fork moving smoothly even during heavy hits.Custom-tuned GRIP X2 damper: Offers increased compression and optimised rebound for the Podium s low-friction, rigid platform. This setup lets riders sit higher in the travel while maintaining grip, improving control without increasing fatigue.Reduced unsprung weight with carbon guards and inverted design: By moving heavier components higher on the fork, the suspension becomes more sensitive to small bumps and quicker to respond, giving better tracking and faster recovery across all terrain.Choice of crown diameter; Standard 58mm or 68mm: This allows the fork to match different head tube sizes, especially on eMTBs. Using the correct crown ensures optimal fit and stiffness, maintaining chassis integrity and handling precision across a wide range of bike setups.Podium is built for riders who demand maximum descending control without switching to a dual crown. Its high fore-aft rigidity, low-friction chassis, and custom-tuned damping work together to create a fork that feels smoother and more stable the harder you push it. With options for standard or oversized crowns to suit everything from trail bikes to full-power eMTBs, it s made to meet the demands of gravity riders at any level.Get the edge that top riders demand with the Fox Podium Factory Grip X2. Designed to charge harder, steer sharper, and respond faster every ride, every line, every time.SpecificationWheel Size: 29"Travel: 170mmOffset: 44mmDamper: GRIP X2 (HSC, LSC, HSR, LSR)Steer tube: 1.5 TaperedAxle Options:20x110 Upper tube Finish: Kashima CoatCrown Diameter: Standard 58mm or HT68mm...
