Built for the highest level of downhill competition, the all-new FOX 40 Float Factory GRIP X2 is a no-compromise fork engineered for ultimate speed, precision, and control. Featuring the next-generation GRIP X2 damper and a redesigned chassis, it delivers maximum tunability and performance for elite racers.
Key Features
GRIP X2 Damper
Equipped with a 24mm base valve and a 23-valve stack, the GRIP X2 damper offers unprecedented control and adjustability. Riders can fine-tune high and low-speed compression and rebound with minimal cross-talk between circuits. Built to respond instantly to terrain changes while reducing fatigue over long descents.
Factory Series with Kashima Coating
Stanchions are treated with FOX’s signature Kashima Coat for ultra-low friction and long-term durability.
203mm Travel
Long-travel performance with an EVOL air spring that delivers plush initial sensitivity and ramped mid-stroke support.
Stiffer and Stronger Chassis
New arch design improves head tube clearance while increasing overall fork stiffness:
Air/Oil Bypass Channels and Bleeders
Integrated bleeders and optimized internals maintain consistent damping and pressure in extreme conditions.

GRIP X2 Technology
The GRIP X2 damper scales up the capabilities of the original GRIP2 by increasing the base valve from 20mm to 24mm and boosting the valve count from 7 to 23. This allows for improved sensitivity, greater support, and finer control over a wider range of terrain and speeds. The damper also auto-balances pressure for consistent performance at any altitude or barometric condition.
