Have just had the LBS do a nice fork, stem and bar upgrade on my nearly 2 yr old Levo SL and now have this shiny new Fox 36 😁. I have setup to the pressures and compression, rebound etc as per the manual for my 13 stone self and have pavement tested. Hoping for a proper ride tomorrow…

So, any setup tips, it has 1 token as standard and I’m at 83 psi air.

It replaces a 34 Float 29, 150mm, Grip, 51mm offset, which is having a service in the shop and will be getting sold soon.

Same fork i have on my spectral and found a couple of clicks + in the hsc worked for me as it was diving through travel at times. Similar set up to your air pressure as well.

don't expect much adjustment range from the damper.

90kg here, running slightly over recommended pressure (can’t remember exactly what) but with token removed. Both compression wide open and a click less on both rebound dials.

Not a big jumper and not hitting big drops. Do a lot of woodsy stuff, so value a supple fork over roots and ruts, but that returns quickly. Stock settings felt a bit slow over this kind of stuff.

Had it since Feb and my first Fox fork for 7 years. Not as nice as my Lyrik at slower speeds but feels better the faster you go. Feels much more composed at my limits.
