It looks like the crown is a lot narrower than the old forks
Looks like the Titanium crown that has been on team only forks since 2010/ 2011 or so on the orange versions but not sure on the all black OEMs (look different to me but it may be my eyes playing tricks on me!).
I'm assuming the cutouts mean that the bottom of the damper and air spring have been moved up in the lower to save weight (like the SID's) leaving the bottom section of the leg as just a carrier for the dropout.
Impoverished weight weenie wanna-be!

Hah!
Not that novel some may say.

except those were unreliable, heavy yet flexy & didnt actually work that well. everything in mtb has been tried before at some point. its the quality, performance & for utmost importance for this forum, weight that make this new Fox 32 look like a very promising fork. I've got 1 on order
Not saying it's a bad fork and not saying the old Mazza was good, just correcting the 'novel' bit.....obvious from my wording really?
