Spotted: New Fox 38 RAD Prototype
I know it would weigh more but after hearing how they decided to use steel for the podium axle I wonder how it would affect a standard fork. Would it have similar ride quality? The line that got me thinking was something like there were aluminum axles that were stiffer but not better.

Ohlins Announces New 38mm Enduro & DH Forks, and TTX Air Shock
I am pretty sure the 36 already has or had this part in it and it separated the damper oil from the bath oil. I wonder if the the damper oil isn't as good at lubrication? Anyway, I am just speculating on why they would go away from it, and then back to it later.

The Ti nitride on the shock was part of their Ohlins factory racing upgrade but the fork coating is new for sure.

Feb 15, 2025Medium Pivot firebird w/new 2024 float X2
$1800 USDI have had this frame about 18 months and decided to drop to a switchblade. It has been ride wrapped since day 1 and the only rock damage is on the RT and photos are included. The ride wrap in the RT is pretty shredded from the rear tire but it seems to have done its job. All the dimensions are spot on and it is in great condition. Lower link bearings are new and upper bearings are still running smooth. I am not hard on frames or parts. Let me know if there are any questions.
1800 covers fees and shipping to make it easy.
I will discount for local pick up and cash.
For an extra 150 I can include older SRAM XO shifter and 10-50 RD.
Inluded:
Pivot headset
Axle
Seat collar
Shock
Extra RT
Cable routing foam

Why Are Modern Mountain Bikes Getting Heavier?
The cynical side of me says bikes are getting heavier because parts are being developed to be e-bike compatible.
