I'm planning on buying an '05 Fox fork within the next couple weeks, but I am curious what the '06's will be like.

Has anyone seen any photos/news about the '06 Fox lineup?

EDIT:

Found something at MBAction, shoulda known.

Im just getting a Vanilla 130 RLC for the "all mountain" bike. Looks to be the same as '05 anyhow.

Would love to try a 36 Vanilla R on my DH'er tho.

They've changed the casting on the arch for the 40 as many are cracking

the vanilla is black and the talas is dark brown(even for 06) or so i think(could be wrong)

lets just say that prices for fox forks are much better on the other side of the border.... much, much better and since are dollar is pretty good right now and the us shops are willing to give out deals.....it just makes an already good thing that much better.
this is my first single crown fork in 5 years, just sold a v10 and a set of dorado's to build up a lower travel, lighter, all mountain bike for the winter(s).

I have fox 36 Van and ridden it for over a month. Great single crown fork for riding the shore. But then, there are so many nice forks lined up for '06...

the van 36 is damn sweet. I can back that up with having ridden one.
Super good feel to the travel, and well paired up with a SX Trail type of bike.
