At Cykel House, we are committed to bringing you the best products at the best prices. If you find a product cheaper elsewhere, contact us via email or via live chat and we'll see if we can match that price.

We do have some criteria to meet when offering a Price Match.

To request a Price Match, provide the URL to the competitor’s lower price. If in-store, you can show us on your phone or a printed copy.

The competitor must be a UK-registered shop. All our products are brand new and genuine, therefor we cannot match prices from private sellers, auction sites, or international businesses.

The product must be identical to ours in condition, model, colour, and size, and the competitor must have it in stock at the time of the Price Match.

The competitor’s price must include VAT and delivery charges, and be listed on their website. We cannot match prices combined with other offers, including vouchers, clearance, or discontinued items.

Price Match offers cannot be applied after the sale is complete.

We cannot offer Price Matches for orders using insurance vouchers or on products purchased through finance or cycle-to-work schemes; these items must be paid in full using our usual payment methods.

If your Price Match is accepted, we will provide a discount code or link to complete your order. Only one discount code can be used per order.

All Price Match requests are subject to Cykel House's discretion, and we reserve the right to decline, alter, or withdraw this offer at any time.

Please note, whilst we can Price Match the majority of products, sending this information does not guarantee a price match is viable.

THE APEX OF ALL-MTN

Since 2005, the FOX 36 has led the single crown fork market with best-in-class performance and unrivaled stiffness-to-weight ratio.

The latest evolution of the revered 36 brings big fork energy to All-Mountain riding. An updated chassis and significant increase in bushing overlap adds 20% torsional stiffness over the previous 36, approaching the steering responsiveness of the 38.

A new compliant FLOAT air spring and inboard bypass channels make 36 considerably smoother throughout its travel, especially when engaged at higher loads and at faster speeds.

All-Mountain riders are pushing their bikes harder in rougher terrain and want no compromise in their bike’s handling. The 36 gives riders a true Enduro ride feel of a 38, without the weight.

Features

ARCH TO RIVAL

Generatively designed and optimised by FOX engineers, the new 36 arch wraps around the lowers to increase torsional stiffness of the fork by a full 20%. This now gives the 36 a veritable 87% of the torsional stiffness found on the 38 (up from 75%), while remaining 275g lighter than the 38.

COMPLIANT AIR SPRING. FOR SMOOTHNESS UNDER LOAD.

A large enough bending force—such as hitting a large rock or root at high speed—can cause the air spring to bind to the inside of the stanchion when the fork is compressing through its travel.

The redesigned and compliant FLOAT air spring decouples the stanchion from the air shaft, allowing the piston to move with the fork while under these bending loads, rather than resisting them.

The result? Smoother suspension action overall, especially when the fork is experiencing high loads from speed or weight of a rider.

MORE BUSHING OVERLAP

As the fork is loaded sideways (such as running over an obstacle on the trail), that bending force is translated from the lower leg to the stanchions through Teflon-lined sleeves called bushings. “Bushing overlap” refers to the distance between upper and lower bushings in each leg.

In suspension forks, this greater overlap reduces friction between the stanchions and lower legs throughout the stroke. By adding an additional 30mm of bushing overlap over the previous 36, chassis friction is reduced significantly for a smoother-feeling fork overall, as well as adding fore-aft stiffness for a more stable-feeling at higher speed.

INBOARD BYPASS CHANNELS

Bypass channels help curb pressure ramping for increased small bump sensitivity, as well as recirculating oil to lubricating bushings and seals. By relocating the bypass channels from the aft side of the fork to the inboard side, they are now out of the fore-aft load path. This further reduces friction and wear, as well as increasing overall sensitivity of the fork.

GRIP X — UNCOMPROMISED ALL-MOUNTAIN PERFORMANCE

Trail riders no longer need to choose between a descent-focused damper or a lightweight endurance damper. GRIP X exudes the exemplary descent performance of GRIP X2, refined for less weight, easier set up and an easy access firm mode for pedalling efficiency.

ADDED UTILITY

Low profile bleeders. Grooved design allows pressure to escape around your finger as you press the bleeder.
Air spring top cap. Now uses the common Shimano cassette tool for easy volume adjustments.
Mudguard. Mounts to seal flanges and arch instead of bleeder ports. Refined aesthetic, durability and seal protection. Long and short styles.
