The 47 mm stanchions, a massively reinforced and revolutionary fork crown, along with a 20×110 mm Boost DH steel axle, provide the Up-Side Down Podium Fork with extraordinary bending and torsional stiffness for maximum tracking on the roughest terrain. The GlideCore air shaft significantly reduces friction, especially under axial forces, such as when rolling over a large rock or root at high speed. Thanks to its special design, the GlideCore can better absorb such loads, resulting in less misalignment or pressure against the stanchion.
Podium Performance with increased bushing overlap allows for 175 mm of guiding overlap – 32% more than the FOX 38, resulting in minimal friction and continuous lubrication of all seals for optimal performance. The finely adjustable GRIP X2 damper is specifically designed for the upside-down chassis. Enhanced compression support and tailored rebound damping enable the best setup for precise suspension tuning for every rider and terrain.
The engineered inverted design chassis makes riding noticeably more agile, while the carbon fork guards reliably protect against stone impacts and scratches on the Kashima-coated stanchions.
