Overview
The RXF38 m.3 Coil combines the stiffness of 38mm stanchions with the unmatched small-bump sensitivity of a coil spring. Perfect for aggressive enduro racing and e-MTB riding, this fork excels on technical terrain where every bit of traction matters. The steel coil spring provides a linear, predictable feel without the need for constant air pressure adjustments, while the TTX18 damper delivers race-proven control and support.
