Description
Ultra-light. Gravity-ready. Trail unleashed.
The sub-1800g 36 SL blends plush suspension feel with sharp steering responsiveness, redefining what a Trail fork can achieve. Built for riders who demand efficiency on the climbs and confidence on the descents, it delivers a uniquely capable ride feel—lightweight, yet ready for aggressive terrain.
This Factory Series fork strikes the ideal balance for modern Trail riding. The chassis maintains precise handling through technical sections while keeping overall weight to a minimum, allowing riders to push harder without compromise. Air channels and bleed valves ensure consistent performance by managing internal pressure, while the Genuine Kashima Coat provides ultra-smooth action and long-lasting durability.
At its core is the gravity-ready GRIP X2 damper, updated for maximum control on steep, fast, and technical terrain. With unmatched adjustability and damping consistency, it pairs seamlessly with the FLOAT EVOL GlideCore air spring to deliver a supple initial stroke, supportive mid-stroke, and controlled end-stroke performance.
Built for 29” wheels, the 36 SL Factory gives modern Trail riders the confidence to ride bigger lines, tackle tougher descents, and maintain efficiency—without the weight holding them back.
GRIP X2 Damper Control
The GRIP X2 damper delivers elite-level tuning with independent high- and low-speed compression and rebound adjustment (HSC, LSC, HSR, LSR). Designed for demanding terrain, it provides exceptional sensitivity, support, and consistency—keeping the fork composed through steep, rough, and technical trails.
