from John Stevenson & James Huang's New Arrivals section:
The cross-country market seems to have settled on a sweet spot of about 100mm for fork travel these days, with maybe 20mm either way of wiggle room for short races on smooth courses or endures on rough trails. The air-sprung Float 100RLT is Fox's lightest model at a shade over 1600g. As with the rest of Fox's cross-country line, the Float features an ultra-rigid chassis with 32mm diameter stanchion tubes and cast magnesium lower legs. The advanced damping system includes a manual lockout with adjustable blowoff threshold and rebound damping. Our disc-specific test model also includes a nifty new integrated brake housing guide; woo-hoo, no more zip-ties!/JH
