Bottom Line:I will be using this fork for my spring build of my VooDoo Ogun DH/FR bike. I rode my buddy's bike that has one on it and I was amazed so I had to get one. Buy it if you want a plush ride that will keep coming back for more punishment.

Strong
Weaknesses:None

Bottom Line:This fork is unbeleavable good and feels so smooth,lot's smoother and better than all the other forks i'v ridden on other bikes.It came stock on my session 10 and it has the revox isx ti shock in the back and with the travis it's the best combo for this bike.Strong solid fork and very good for extreme freeride or for DH racing or other types off extreme off road riding.It's been proved again that manitou is making one off the nicest and best forks to date for DH/FR with it's intrinsic damping.thumbs up for Manitou for making this excelent fork.
