This versatile mountain bike (MTB) fork features a hard-wearing straight wall aluminium leg construction, which allows it to handle all of the intensity that's associated with training and competing. Coming equipped with an Expert Air spring, VTT compression damping and In-leg adjustable TPC rebound damping, this model allows riders to dial in their ideal riding preferences to match their style or the terrain conditions. Its adjustable air, rebound and three-position compression (Open, Trail and Lock), means that you'll enjoy a more rider-tuned feel with increased performance and reliability, as you tackle every off-road challenge that comes your way. Expert Air Spring This trail-ready model features the Manitou Expert Air spring system, which contains a unique balancing valve that equalises the positive and negative air chambers during the air fill process. This gives the spring rate a consistent feel without any flat or dead spots in the stroke, along with giving riders of different weights the same initial stroke feel. Variable Terrain Tune - 3-Position Compression Adjust When developing the VTT Pro damper, Manitou set out with a goal to maintain a rock-solid lockout without compromising the open and mid settings. The downside to many dampers with firm lockout modes is that in any other position than lock-out you will reach some critical shaft velocity that chokes off the low-speed flow path. When this happens the damper peaks at nearly the same lock-out force as the locked-out position. This translates to harsh force in the hands and possibly lack of control. The goal with VTT is to eliminate that high-speed spike while maintaining the lock-out force demanded by most XC users. This allows the fork to have a less progressive high-speed response while maintaining some low-speed support. This is achieved through independent shim stacks (one for Lockout, one for the other two positions). By controlling the shim stack through which the oil flow is diverted we can manipulate the characteristic of the damper to be Lock-out, Digressive, or progressive to meet the demands of the rider and terrain. Chassis When developing the chassis of this Manitou fork, the goal was to find the perfect balance of weight, stiffness, and reliability. Thanks to its Reverse Arch, Manitou is able to position the arch further away from the axle. The lower tyre clearance behind the fork relative to the centre of the axle allows for a shorter arch which yields 13% increased stiffness compared to a forward arch fork of the equivalent weight. Because of this, Manitou is able to use 32mm stanchions to save weight, while keeping stiffness closer to that of a larger stanchion fork with a forward-facing arch.

The Clutch Hub is a traditional clutch-based coaster hub design that eliminates all of the problematic elements on ordinary hubs and only keeps the parts that work. A super-strong Full 14mm axle, bearing configuration, and drag mechanism design stops the need for constant repairs. Equipped with external slack adjustment, which can be done with a 2.5mm hex key through a hub shell access hole (can be adjusted without removing the wheel), and an improved plastic hub guard spec. The Clutch V2 is laced to the Odyssey Quadrant Rim. The Quadrant rim is made from 6061 T6 aluminium and uses a double wall design with one large hollow chamber through the middle for added strength. The Quadrant rim uses a unique pinned joint which uses 4 pins instead of the usual 2 to make a joint comparable in strength to a welded joint while saving costs. ###section### Product Specs WHEEL SIZE:20" HUB:Clutch V2 AXLE:14mm DRIVE SIDE:RHD/LHD Options RIM:Quadrant SPOKES:14 Gauge NIPPLES:Aluminum WEIGHT:TBC
Using the same chassis as Manitou's Mezzer Pro suspension fork, this model features 37mm stanchions that are constructed from 7000 series aluminium and Reverse Arch technology. This allows it to deliver exceptional stiffness and strength, while also being incredibly lightweight at only 2030g (27.5” option). As a result, the Expert is the second lightest fork in the Enduro category, second only to the Mezzer Pro of course. Another highlight is it comes race-ready with an Expert Air air spring with Incremental Volume Adjust (IVA) for an impressively smooth feel as you charge across challenging terrain conditions. It also offers a wide range of adjustment features from its Variable Terrain Tune (VTT) damper that can easily be tweaked to suit any terrain thanks to its six positions. With adjustable Air, Air Volume, Rebound, 6-position Compression (Open, Trail, Lock), this suspension fork is the smart choice for anyone looking to dive into the Enduro Fork market. Enduro Fork with Expert Air Spring Expert Air is derived from Manitou's Dorado Air system and features a unique balancing valve that equalizes the positive and negative air chambers during the air fill process. This valve is activated only when the pump is threaded completely onto the valve. This gives the spring rate a smooth and consistent feel without any flat or dead spots in the stroke. Six Position Variable Terrain Tune (VTT) Damper Adjusted through a single external compression adjuster, both high-speed and low-speed damping characteristics are changed simultaneously when turning the knob. The damper features a fixed shim stack and a secondary shim stack that is preloaded by the external adjuster. In positions 1 and 2 there is an open flow path through the compression damper. In positions 3-6, the adjustable shim stack comes into contact with the piston, increasing platform force. This design provides a wide tuning range that combines the benefits of a low-speed platform and a high-speed progressive tune that can suit any terrain through 6 positions. Hexlock SL Axle Manitou's patented hex axle locks the lower legs in place, eliminating rotation around the axle providing unsurpassed stiffness in a lightweight tooled package.

With adjustable Air, Air Volume, Rebound, 6-position Compression (Open, Trail, Lock), this suspension fork is the smart choice for anyone looking to dive into the Enduro Fork market.Enduro Fork with Expert Air SpringExpert Air is derived from Manitou's Dorado Air system and features a unique balancing valve that equalizes the positive and negative air chambers during the air fill process. This valve is activated only when the pump is threaded completely onto the valve. This gives the spring rate a smooth and consistent feel without any flat or dead spots in the stroke.Six Position Variable Terrain Tune (VTT) DamperAdjusted through a single external compression adjuster, both high-speed and low-speed damping characteristics are changed simultaneously when turning the knob. The damper features a fixed shim stack and a secondary shim stack that is preloaded by the external adjuster. In positions 1 and 2 there is an open flow path through the compression damper. In positions 3-6, the adjustable shim stack comes into contact with the piston, increasing platform force. This design provides a wide tuning range that combines the benefits of a low-speed platform and a high-speed progressive tune that can suit any terrain through 6 positions.Hexlock SL AxleManitou's patented hex axle locks the lower legs in place, eliminating rotation around the axle providing unsurpassed stiffness in a lightweight tooled package.Features: Leg Material: 7000 Series Butted Wall Aluminium Crown Material: Forged Aluminium, Hollow Bore Leg Diameter: 37mm Use: Enduro Axle Size: 15x110mm Hexlock Steerer Diameter: 1 1/8-1.5" tapered Air Spring: Expert Air with Incremental Volume Adjust (IVA) Compression Damping: Six Position Variable Terrain Tune Rebound Damping: Open Cartridge adjustable TPC Adjustments: Air, Air Volume, Rebound, 6-position Compression (Open, Trail, Lock) Offset: 37/44OS (27.5" Option); 44/51OS (29" Option) Ride Height: 534-574mm (27.5" Option); 554-594mm (29" Option) Travel: Multiple options available.

Expert Air offers ultimate sensitivity featuring a self-equalizing negative air spring. IVA (Incremental Volume Adjuster) allows you to modify your positive air chamber volume by rearranging self contained spacers. You'll never lose a volume spacer again. VTT-6P damper provides 6 easy clicks to dial in your damping for all types of terrain. Integrated fender can be installed/removed by three small screws threaded into the arch of the fork. TSR (Trail Side Relief) valves on the back of the lower legs allow you to bleed off built up air within the lower legs to keep things butter smooth between service intervals.Manufacturer's Part Numbers: 191-36964-A101 Black 29" x 180mm 44mm 191-37137-A101 Black 27.5" x 180mm 37mm 191-36964-A103 Black 29" x 160mm 44mmBuy Manitou Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
Excuse the brag but we’ve really outdone ourselves here. Proving that true trail-taming capability doesn’t have to come at an intimidating price the Rockhopper Expert is the culmination of 30 years of redefining the relationship between value and performance. Start with a painstakingly engineered Premium A1 Aluminum frame add in modern geometry that keeps one eye on efficiency and the other on confident capability and you have the rock-solid foundation of our best Rockhopper yet. Pair that with a parts list that just doesn’t quit (...can we get a shoutout for RockShox’s Judy SoloAir fork and SRAM’s always-in-charge Level hydraulic disc brakes?) and you have a tubeless-ready SRAM Eagle 1x12-equipped Rockhopper that’s absolutely prepared to fly. A heart of gold presented in our lightweight yet durable Premium A1 Aluminum the Rockhopper’s butted aluminum frame features hydroformed top and downtubes in order to keep weight low and strength high all while providing increased standover clearance slick internal cable routing and dropper-post compatibility. With the goal of making sure that the Rockhopper offers both the best fit and best performance for every person no matter their measure we’ve paired each Rockhopper frame size with the optimal wheel size. The result is a Rockhopper to fit every rider and the assurance that every Rockhopper is rolling on the best-handling wheel for its frame size. Bringing our Rx Tune to Rockhopper for the very first time the lockout-equipped SR Suntour XCM with custom Multi-Circuit damping brings size-specific travel and spring rates to the show in a performance that’s sure to impress while also ensuring consistent geometry handling and suspension performance regardless of frame or wheel size. Beautifully beastly SRAM Level hydraulic disc brakes pack a mean bite but deliver their power with a refined intuitive feel to make for a package that punches way above its pay grade. Keep things simple with a durable 1x MicroSHIFT drivetrain that offers plenty of range along with a clutch-equipped rear derailleur that keeps your ride quite—and your chain on. Pair dead-reliable hubs from Formula with our 25-millimeter internal diameter hookless Stout rims for a wheelset hat-trick: strong light and durable.
