2010 40 RC2

OVERVIEW

At the 2008 World Championships in Val di Sole, Italy, FOX 40® equipped riders Rachel and Gee Atherton were crowned downhill World Champions. This double victory marked the culmination of what we learned during countless hours of testing on the world's most demanding courses, and working with the best athletes the sport has to offer. Great athletes have the ability to adapt quickly to their equipment and then ask for more performance. Our engineers and race technicians have not only kept up, but anticipated their needs and championships are the result. The 40's purpose-built downhill chassis has been optimized for maximum grip and weight savings, features massive 40mm stanchions and a direct mount stem upper crown. At its heart is our world-class FIT RC2 damper with separate, externally adjustable high and low speed compression damping circuits and a titanium coil spring. The FOX 40 is a sub 7 pound, full 8-inch travel Downhill Champion.
