Fox GRIP2 vs FIT4 / Which is best for you?
Рет қаралды 475,782
5 жыл бұрынFor 2019, Fox offers two different dampers in their Float 36 forks; the GRIP2 and the FIT4.
Although the GRIP2 damper is brand spankin' new and feels amazing, I believe it may not be the better choice for some riders.
Check out the video to figure out which will be better for you while you're either upgrading your current fork or building up a new bike with some sweet Fox suspension!

@TheLostCo 5 жыл бұрын
Hey Kit! The damper you have is referred to as their FIT HSC/LSC. This damper has been phased out to the new GRIP2 damper which is the upgraded replacement for that damper in the Fox lineup. That damper was great too! If you ever feel like you'd like to have that adjustable high-speed rebound, you can easily swap out your damper with a GRIP2 which you can order from me @ misterlost.com/forks/2019-fox-36-grip2-damper-upgrade-kit 😃

Bought the cheapest version of a good-framed branded mtb on sale, to choose the upgrades that I want, instead of getting a high-end version, with only so-so parts.
@cterry538 5 жыл бұрын
Good vid. Rider A vs B is a solid philosophy to start with. I've tried both forks and really liked both. Where I believe Grip2 is better is with Big brands that are just borrowing geometry trends from niche brands & haven't thought through the overall kinematics & thus extra adjustment is well appreciated or just super OCD Type A riders. Fit4 is terrific for good niche brands because the geometry & kinematics is painstakingly thought through. For example Pivot or Transition, loved Fit4 on those bikes, yet those brands really think through everything & thus you pay more but get more which equals less to think through on settings vs. big brands. My 2 cents. Totally OK to disagree cause if you do...just means you,'re passionate abt Mtb 🤘

Before watching this video, I had my heart set on getting the Grip2 damper, but now I’m not so sure. My current fork (34 Rhythm) has the Grip damper (basically only a lockout lever and rebound adjust) and I’m pretty happy with it. I mainly want Factory for the lighter weight as well as to match to the Kashima of my DPX2 shock, so I think I may just go with the Fit4
@That.Guy. 8 ай бұрын
I just bought the 36 in 150mm with fit4 because bizarrely fox wont sell the grip2 as 150mm but they told me i can buy it as a 160mm and then get a shorter air piston to reduce the travel to 150mm. This makes no sense.

I’m actually building another hardtail SS and see the new 34FOX has the Grip2 option. I don’t know if I would notice the marginal improvement on a Grip2 so I’ll probably just get another Fit4.

This is a great guide. I have a question about how this relates to the 2019 Fox 34 forks. On the 36 forks, the Grip2 is more expensive than the Fit4, which is totally understandable. But, on the 34, the Grip fork costs less than the Fit4. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Is the Grip Damper on the 34 fork anything like the Grip2 on the 36 fork? I'm definitely a Type B rider. I currently have a Float 32 CTD on a 2015 Trance 2 and I'm thinking I might update it. I like being able to lock out the fork, so it seems like the Fit4 would be best for me. Thoughts?

HAHA! The answer is: because you are a mountain biker, you are naturally a tinkerer and are always considering how different things feel on the trail! Thats actual why I enjoy bikes so much, because its s super personal feeling between you and your bike. Your car might have worn out tires, suspension is beat down, etc, but you don't exactly have that much of a connection between your hands, brain, and the vehicle. With a bike, though, there's not as much going on as with a car and you can feel every little difference. That was a long answer to a short question! 😂

In opposite with low speed , below 25km/h feels less comfortable. Wondering it is wrong adjustment of my Fit4 or this is just normal behavior of Fit4. To increase low speed comfort/control I should change for Grip2?

I am a tinkerer by heart but since i don't have the money to invest in high end bikes which comes with high end suspension am i limited to the fairly limited range of adjustments of the entry level forks and shocks. I'm currently running an almost bone stock trek remedy 7, I have only swapped out the tires. so i have learnt to go for what feels good and stick with that. but I hope that my next bike in like 5-10 years time will be a higher end piece of equipment. i'm planning on building up a frame to my specs so I can save where I don't feel as much difference and shell out on things like the suspension and rims

fit4 rider on 120mil 34 here. Now that we can upgrade to grip2 too, this has become a question. Honestly, I think I have much more to gain by tuning the spring rather than changing the damper. Look at you, Vorsprung Luftkappe! Should make it more subtle off the top and give mid-stroke support. I tried relying on the damper for support, but it just makes the whole thing feel sluggish and not active at all.

Same with my Fox 40 fit 4. I do not care that much. My type is like B, i used to be A and loose a lot of time with settings. But then i understood what i want from the fork. Not to change the settings on every damn trail. It's somewhat fine, could be better of course. But it's not worth my time, i am not a pro. I am still fast on the trails and have fun. This is why i do this hobby, FOR fun. Not to loose too much time with settings, i would rather spend that time riding and having fun.
