Make every ride limitless

e-SUV Optimized

E-SUV Optimized

The explosion of electric assist technology has rapidly changed the cycling landscape. Mountain e-bikers are exploring new ways to ride over greater distances. Cyclists on hybrid e-bikes are riding further, faster, and hauling more gear across more varied terrain. Capabilities across the entire e-cycling world have ramped up, putting a whole new set of performance–and safety–demands on bikes and their components. Riders need proven, high-performance suspension that can handle these greater demands.

 
 
Race Pedigree

Race Pedigree

Leveraging FOX's extensive experience with building the world's highest performance off-road suspension systems, the AWL line is based around our acclaimed FOX fork chassis. The AWL features 34mm stanchions, tracking precisely without any unwanted flex, regardless of the dirt you plow through. The AWL HD sizes up to 36mm stanchions for the increased loads encountered at higher speeds and more aggressive terrain. External adjustable rebound and compression settings on the AWL's sealed Rail damper are tool-free and easily accessible, delivering exceptional performance, proven reliability, and hassle-free maintenance.

Adventure Ready

Everyday Adventure Ready

The stout chassis of the AWL is available in both 27.5" and 29" and 29" only for the AWL HD, with all wheel sizes and rigorously tested to withstand a 169kg total weight rating. Fender, rack and light mounts are integrated into the fork for optimal compatibility, durability and versatility. Rocks and roots will no longer harm your zip-tied fenders. Designed to track smoothly and precisely over any terrain under increased load, the AWL and AWL HD unlock your bike's electric potential and bring adventure to your everyday ride.
