Fox Podium Fork | Is MTB Ready for Inverted Forks?

#MTBSuspension #MTBTech #LoamWolf
Fox has been teasing prototypes of an inverted single crown suspension fork for mountain bikes throughout 2025, creating a great deal of anticipation. With the release of the Fox Podium, they’re aiming to finally crack the formula for “upside-down” suspension for aggressive trail and enduro riders.

We’ve been putting the new Podium fork to the test, and connected with the Fox engineering team to dive deep into its development. The inverted design brings a range of advantages in friction reduction, small-bump compliance, and bushing pressure control, but not without some serious engineering hurdles. Dive in with us as we learn how they solved those challenges, and of course give our initial impressions on how it performed.
