Not every ride is filled with velcro dirt and blue skies. Often times, the shoes get pulled off the boot dryer from yesterday's antics, and they'll be right back where they came from in a few hours time. Fenders are a mainstay on every bike in our neck of the woods, and integrated OEM options like those from Fox offer a sleek and effective dirt mitigation strategy. Fox has changed their fender designs over the years, and their integrated fenders must be paired with the correct generation of fork. Mismatched fork and fender generations are not compatible, and this guide will help you get the perfect fender for your fork. Whether that's a 36, 38, or any other Fox fork, we're here to help!

Let's clear up exactly which style of fenders are compatible with which generation of forks!

Once you've figured out which style of fender you need, you get to choose between the Short and the Long fenders. It's easy to overthink this one, but don't worry, the choice is pretty simple. If you're out riding while it's actively raining during the wet months, we definitely recommend getting the Long fender, no matter which fork you have. There's really no downside to running the longer fender besides a couple of extra grams, which is well worth the added protection! But if you live in the Southern California endless summer and want a little protection for the occasional creek crossing, the Short fender will be perfect for you.

Check out this chart to get the perfect fender for your Fox fork!
