Hi Guys
Does anyone have the 2016 Fox 36's? How easy is it to remove the wheel? Reading a review and it isn't clear if it is the 2015 version or the 2016 version.... I take the wheel off every time I take the bike out to put in the car this would have an impact on what bike I was buying.
Cheers for any help

The 2015 36 didn't have a QR so this is why I was wondering

I've got the 2016 Fox 36 FiT4, I've got a 15mm QR, mate also has 2016 36's and he has a 20mm bolt through.

So is Bolt through a pain in the tits to get the wheel off? One of the bikes I am looking at comes with 20MM THROUGH AXLE SYSTEM so I am assuming this is a bolt through which makes taking the wheel off a pain

Pain in the arse. 5mm Allen key, 4 pinch bolts and main bolt through. You'd have to leave one in the car. Didn't enjoy it much. Do the pinch bolts have to come out just to take the wheel off? I thought it would just be 5mm Allen key which granted I feel like is a major pain in the arse I genuinely don't think I can be arsed with. Although I do like the Fox 36 |
