Very nice fork. not only does it look nice it performs pretty good aswell, easy to maintain, dont need to service as often as fox if you look after them (clean around the seals) i would reccomend using a flat crown as the drop crowns look naf.
Superb Forks - with the adjusters and also the fact they are coil, it makes them easy to use and maintain. Upgraded my Rockshox Domains for these, best upgrade I have done. The weight difference is noticeable making it a less heavy ride.
awesome fork easily adjustabe, easy to get dialled in and easy to get used too, i use these on my DH and would put them on my next one too great fork never heats up even on long rough descents
All I can say about this product is B.O.X.X.E.R they are great and they are and will always compete for the best DownHill forks around at the minute!

THE LEGEND STARTS HERE.
Featuring long-travel-specific Mission Control DH damping, DropStop bottom-out systems and a 35mm dual-crown chassis, the legendary BoXXer is downright fast. Upgraded damper technologies and a revalved design give an unwaveringly smooth and consistent feel to the reliable Coil and the decadently light, adjustable and fully redesigned Solo Air spring. Striking a perfect balance between weight, stiffness and performance, this fork isn’t for those who live to ride. It’s for those who live to ride faster.

|---|---|---|
| Weight | 2882 g | |
| Color Options | BoXXer Red, Black, White | |
| Travel | 200 mm |
Travel - refers to the distance the wheel can move in respect to the frame. Typically measured in millimeters, most forks range from 80 to 203 mm of travel
|
| Spring | Coil | |
| Crown | Dual | |
| Body Type | Magnesium | |
| Rebound | External Rebound |
Rebound - is how quick your fork returns to a fully extended position after being compressed. Almost all after-market forks feature external rebound adjustment for easy fine tuning.
|
| Stanchion material | 7000 Series Straight Wall Aluminum, Low Friction Anodized | |
| Steer Tube | 1.125 | |
| Damping | Motion Control lS |
Damping - The process of absorbing the energy of impacts transmitted through the forks or rear shock during the compression stroke, and absorbing the energy of the spring during the rebound stroke.
|
| DropOut Options | Maxle | |
| Compression | Low-Speed Compression, Internal Spring Preload |
Compression - This is the damping circuit that absorbs the compression energy force on the damper. Compression damping is used to adjust how quickly a fork or rear shock compresses when hitting a bump, and is adjustable on some products. When compression damping is too soft, this condition allows most of the available travel to be used without attaining control of the wheel. When it's adjusted too firmly, the wheel will jump or "dance" about when hitting small bumps, again failing to gain control of the wheel.
