Fox 36 SL: Short Travel. Hard Hitting. All Trail.

With 36mm stanchions and a svelte weight, the Fox 36 SL is the perfect fork for short travel bikes that punch harder than their travel numbers let on. With DNA from the hard hitting 36, the 36 SL is a light weight alternative that still has your back when you get in the deep end and need some added stability. Ready for anything from all day cross country rides to all mountain adventures, the 36 SL is built to be versatile and shine in a wide variety of conditions.

Fox redesigned their air spring with compliance in mind, allowing the air spring to freely move as the fork absorbs the hits from the trail. A little wiggle room goes a long way, and prevents binding as you go through rough sections of trail, keeping the air spring supple at all times. 

Key Innovations:

  • Optimized for Trail Riding – Designed for 120-140mm travel, the 36 SL delivers the perfect blend of stiffness, compliance, and lightweight performance.
  • Arch Above the Rest – Generatively optimized crown and arch provide 20% more torsional stiffness over the previous Trail-class fork, the 34.
  • FLOAT Glidecore Compliant Air Spring – The Glidecore air spring decouples the stanchion from the air shaft to maintain smooth travel even under bending loads from speed or rider weight.
  • Extended Bushing Overlap – 20mm additional bushing overlap over the 34 ensures reduced friction and improved suspension feel.
  • GRIP X Damper – Combines excellent descending performance with an easy-access firm mode for pedaling efficiency.
  • Inboard Bypass Channels – Strategically relocated to reduce friction and optimize suspension feel.
  • Low-Profile Bleeders – Redesigned with a grooved structure for easier pressure equalization.
  • Air Spring Top Cap – Now compatible with a standard Shimano cassette tool for simple volume adjustments.
  • Refined Mudguard Mounting – Mounted to the arch and seal flanges instead of bleeder ports for improved durability and aesthetics.

Not all fork travels are offered directly from Fox. To get you the exact fork for your bike we may need to change the air shaft assembly to achieve this. As an authorized Fox Service Center we will replace the air shaft with a new one in the length you need and we'll put fresh lubricant on the air spring seals and the proper amount of bath oil into each leg. This does not affect the warranty of your fork. Read more here.

A Frother that Won't Turn Off? Great Service. Lost Package. Great Hot Chocolate. Worth It!
Color: Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
I saw this item (or one similar) on an Alton Brown short video. He recommended a frother and I thought "what the heck? If AB recommends a uni-tasker, it must be something good." The item came in, loaded with batteries and all. I removed the plastic tab that interrupts the power and the unit kicked on. I wasn't pressing anything. It just started and would not stop. To return the item is not worth the time or money, especially since none of the "free return" options are anywhere close to me. Called the company and told them what had happened. I spoke with a very nice woman and after I described what happened, her response was not faux sympathy, but "that shouldn't have happened. We'll make it right." She offered not only to replace the unit, but send a second one free of charge. When I declined the second one, she said "take it for your troubles. Give it to a friend if you want." The order was sent out. Tracking via USPS was sent. The package was supposed to be delivered on a Friday, which was great as we were supposed to get cold temps and snow. I was anticipating making frothy hot chocolate. Suddenly the tracking showed the package being delivered. It was not. You cannot ask the USPS to find a package for 7 days and my local post office doesn't answer the phone. Disappointed, I started to make dinner and looked out the window and I could see my postal carrier's truck a block away. I waddled over to the truck and talked to her. She said "I know where it is." She had delivered it 3 blocks away. Same house number, but different street. She went and found the package, brought it to me and Bob's your uncle. That night I made hot chocolate and used the frother. I was surprised that the long shaft did not vibrate or waiver. It stays true. The speed is fast, but not overly so. The thing made a difference. It seemed to make the hot chocolate "lighter" and smoother. I threw a piece of chocolate in the mug, waited a little and then frothed again using the frother. No issues with the frother. I now had frothy, really chocolate-ly hot chocolate. For kicks and on the advice of a friend, I added a tablespoon of peppermint schnapps and used the frother again. Best hot chocolate from a mix I ever had. The frother worked better than advertised. Woo Hoo!! Because the first one didn't work, I have to knock a star off of the rating for the product. But the customer service and actual accountability of the women with whom I spoke is refreshing in the world of product support and customer service. The item is really good and would recommend whole heartedly.

Worth it!
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
It works great! Makes a big difference and my coffee is better! Easy to use and clean. The stand is perfect to keep it accessible. Only thing I would warn customers is to pay attention to instructions on how to insert batteries.

High Quality and Surprisingly Powerful
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
The Pros: Unexpected Power: I usually know exactly what to expect with the products I order, but this unit really blew me away. It is surprisingly powerful and handles everything much better than I anticipated. Premium Batteries Included: It was a great surprise to find that it came with Duracell batteries. Seeing a name-brand battery included really speaks to the overall quality of the product and shows they aren't cutting corners. Solid Build: From the moment I set it up, the unit felt sturdy and well-constructed. It is rare to be this genuinely pleased with a purchase right out of the box. The Cons: Operating Noise: Because the motor is so powerful, it does produce a bit more noise than some weaker units. It isn't a dealbreaker, but it is noticeable during extended use. Bottom Line: This is a high-quality product that exceeded my expectations in both performance and presentation. The fact that it comes ready to go with reliable batteries is a huge plus. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Pleasantly surprised.
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
Honestly, I bought this because it was on sale and I needed to add something to my cart to get one day free shipping. I had zero expectations and thought I'd use it when I travel and won't have access to my espresso machine but I'm blown away by what it can accomplish in its small form factor. It took 30s to froth the milk and it was well-incorporated into the milk, not with just foam on top and milk at the bottom. I could have the frothed milk all day. It's easier to clean than the steam wand and it does plant-based milk cold foam!! It blows the Ikea one out of the water for about the same price point. Glad I stumbled into it!

Works great for daily use, just be prepared to replace batteries
Color: Absolute Black, Size: Z1 Motor + Batteries
I use this every morning to mix protein powder into my coffee, and it works well. It is quick, easy to use, and does a great job blending everything smoothly without clumps. For the price, it’s a great little tool and has definitely been worth it for daily use. The only downside is that I do have to replace the batteries fairly often, about every 3–4 weeks with regular use. Overall, it’s a very convenient and effective frother, especially for the cost. I would recommend it, just keep extra batteries on hand if you plan to use it daily.
