rcdk Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I have the choice of 3 forks. Manitou circus comp 100mm Manitou circus experts 130mm or a old favourite marzocchi shivers sc 120mm any suggestions. Looking for a 130mm max and budget of around 3-400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Deere Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 The old Pike U-Turns. 140mm for FR/DH and then lock them down to 95mm for street. Perfect. Only available second hand now, but they go for pretty bargainous prices. I've never liked Manitou forks, they just don't feel right or have anywhere near the longevity / service life of other manufacturers in my experience.

haydon_peter Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 You had a budget of £400 and wanted a fork with 130mm maximum travel so you went out and got some 160mm forks that will have cost around £700 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Happy days just got a set of 2014 pikes. Explain..... You had a budget of £400 and wanted a fork with 130mm maximum travel so you went out and got some 160mm forks that will have cost around £700 My thinking exactly..... also I've just put a set of 2014 Pike's on my MTB and they're not exactly super easy to get hold of.
