Text excerpts from Consumer brochure: Fox Racing TALAS Fork

Cover Headline:
Want to take the shock out of everything you ride?

First spread:
When you click in and crank, you expect lots of things. You might be looking for big air, a faster time on that sketchy trail, or just impressing your bike buds. The last thing you want is a sore body from a wimpy fork.

Fox’s TALAS forks adjust for whatever you ride. They're plush on anything you want to pedal, from the worst rutted singletrack to tree-rooted downhills. If you’re bombing your favorite fire road and want balanced speed, set TALAS for less travel, as low as 90mm. Got a washboard downhill with lots of rocks? TALAS has up to 130mm of log-absorbing travel.

They're smooth on the uphills too. TALAS RLC models give you adjustable low-speed compression to go with adjustable lockout when you’re climbing or threading the rock garden - no more low-speed bob and weave!

TALAS has a linear air spring rate so it feels more like those coil springs you’re used to, while keeping the weight down. TALAS’ beefy stanchions and stiff hollow crown make sure your bike goes where you point it.

Need even more? The TALAS XTT adds TrailTune, Fox’s inertia valve technology. What's that mean in plain English? You get a smooth ride on the rough and no bobbing when you’re cranking uphill or speeding through easy stuff - without adjusting anything. You can think about picking lines around those cows on the trail and smiling, instead of playing with knobs and levers.

TrailTune works so well it’s patented - nobody else offers a ride this fast and plush!

Still want to twiddle the knobs? The TALAS TTX lets you if you want a little less travel and spring rate to match, or you want more suspension through the climbs.

Either way, you get great moves: bump-absorbing performance when you need it, selectable or automatic locked-out speed when it’s flat, light weight, and an integrated disc brake guide for the best stoppers.

If you want more left in your wallet, TALAS R’s your fork. You get adjustable travel, a plush ride, and the lightest weight, without the lockout and low speed compression adjustments.

Choose a TALAS fork for the smoothest, fastest ride on any trail. We can’t guarantee you’ll win like Brian Lopes, but you could beat your buds back to the trailhead!
