Just a little pre-Sea Otter teaser here: Fox has upped production of their Kashima Coat forks and moved it back to the shocks, too, as we previously mentioned.
What this means to you? It means the Kashima coated forks (and now shocks) are no longer aftermarket only, they’re now available to manufacturers as an OEM option, meaning these things are going to be popping up everywhere, probably immediately.
Also, they’ve redesigned their seals and internals to drastically reduce friction, and from what we hear from a few peeps that have ridden them, the difference is astounding. We’ve got an appointment with Fox’s new marketing man, Jim, at Sea Otter, so look for the full scoop soon. Until then, there’s another pic after the break to tide you over…
