per ora si parla solo di variazioni in tema 36,con nuove versioni a molla con escursione portata a 160mm,e del nuovo ammortizzatore ad aria DHX
Fox Racing Shox.
Fox wasn't making any noise about it but there was some 2006 Product behind their pit. I haven't had much time on the Fox 36 but I've ridden it enough to know it's the real deal. The fork is slightly over five lbs with six inches of travel and it's stiffer than a cadaver on Everest. What's new for 2006 is two coil sprung versions called the 36 Van RC2 and the Van R. The RC2 has high and low speed compression adjustment as well as rebound adjustment. The R has only rebound damping. Both are said to test to the same stiffness standards as the Fox 40 so they should be up to the rigours of freeride. Travel for the coil version has increased to 160mm or 6.5" making it a nice match for bikes like the Specialized SX Trail or Enduro or the new Santa Cruz Nomad.
Fox has also come out with a new rear shock; the DHX AIR. This air-sprung, piggy-back unit was developed with the urging of the folks at Specialized. The basic features mirror the coil DHX; position sensitive damper and Boost Valve technology, adjustable ProPedal, externally adjustable bottom out resistance, an adjustable tuning range using a schrader valve as well as rebound damping adjustment. The bottom out and ProPedal can be adjusted independently of each other because of the Boost Valve Technology. This leads to a shock that shaves a full pound off versus a coil sprung shock. This shock is available in sizes up to 9.5" eye to eye with a 3.0" stroke.
