Formula, Discovering the Thirty-Five Enduro Fork - Video

Formula | Discovering the ThirtyFive fork

Formula suspension forks, bred from moto, are engineered for greater performance through masterful design, custom tuning, and easy adjustability. From the beginning, Formula forks were made to be the smoothest and lightest with the highest level of features to transcend average performance becoming the pinnacle of trail and enduro forks. The Formula 35 lives up to this level of scrutiny and design pressure to be the lightest enduro fork with the highest level of custom tuning options available.

The Formula 35 benefits from our IFT (Internal Floating Technology). The IFT allows the damping cartridge to be structurally merged with the fork from crown to lowers. This creates a cartridge that can remain active with extreme lateral stress commonly placed on all suspension forks while riding on the roughest terrain. This, more than stanchion coatings, decreases the overall friction of the fork allowing for more travel usage and greater tuning for better trail control. With the IFT, the fork can maintain small bump compliance while being progressive enough for any enduro racing set up.

The overall fork compression damping profile can be adjusted based on the rider’s needs by changing the CTS (Compression Tuning System). This set of three valve heads changes the compression rate from soft (grey), medium (blue), and firm (red). Located under the low-speed compression knob, the valve heads are easily switched with a simple tool without losing fluid or needing to bleed the cartridge.

The high-speed compression is managed by our wide range lockout lever, located on top of the cartridge. Our RCC (Remote Cartridge Control) is a handlebar mounted 13 position lever created put control in the hands of the rider. Becoming a part of the cartridge, the RCC adjusts the high-speed damping from fully open to completely locked out. Its innovative design eliminates cables and hydraulic fluid; instead, the hose rotates with the movement of the lever changing the compression damping.
