The 34-Series chassis is designed to be lightweight as well, with fork weights starting at 1778g. Fox also offers an eMTB-specific configuration utilizing a special chassis the company calls Speed Pedelec. These 34-Series eMTB forks range in travel from 120mm up to 150mm. Among Singletracks survey respondents who voted for a Fox 34 Series fork, the 140mm, Kashima-coated version received the most votes.
