The Fox 32 Step-Cast is available for 650b and 29' wheel sizes in Factory and Performance spec, all having 100mm of air-sprung travel, a tapered steerer and standard or Boost hub spacing with a 15mm through axle. These use thicker-walled upper legs to increase stiffness and so deal better with the extra bulk of an electric bike.

There are also E-bike specific versions of the Fox 34 and Fox 36 series.

They're pitched at the lightweight cross-country andВ lightweight trail markets respectively.

Step Cast modelsДЇox has introduced 'Step-Cast' versions of both the 32 and 34 series, which use a narrower stance plus slimmed down, stepped lower legs to help reduce weight.

The Rhythm forks have a slightly less adjustable GRIP damper and the lower legs are cast from a heavier but more affordable grade of aluminium to keep costs down. This is an original equipment (OEM) only level of fork that you'll on see specced on complete bikes. The lower legs are the same as the higher end forks, however. Different, less complicated FIT GRIP dampers are used and the upper legs are again black anodised. This is the entry-level specification of Fox forks that are available on the aftermarket. This is the middle of the Fox forks range and while they share the same high-end damper technologies as the Factory forks with FIT4 and FIT GRIP2 options, the upper legs just have a black anodised finish rather than the Kashima coat. The Kashima treatment creates microscopic pores on the upper legs that retain lubricating oil as the forks cycles through the travel, making it much slippier. All these models have high-end FIT4 and FIT GRIP 2 dampers and use the distinctive golden 'Kashima' coating on the upper legs to reduce friction and increase wear life. This is the highest level of Fox fork and is priced accordingly. In addition to these base chassis designs, here are a number of different specification levels for each of them, which is why the FoxВ fork range adds up to around 160 different models. All of Fox's aftermarket forks use air springs.
