Manitou Minute 1 ?

[D T W .../\\...]

I like experimenting with new toys. My Klein Adept came stock with a Marz
80mm fork. Tried a Marz marathon 100mm and I didn't like fiddling with
the air. Went back to a coil / oil Manitou Black 80-100mm and like that a
lot. Now I saw a good price on the Minute 1 with SPV and had to have it!

Any comments on your experience with this fork. btw,,,,,,,,, still have
an old Fox Float shock.

I've spent most of my money on mountain biking and windsurfing.
The rest I've just wasted.

I have an SPV fork right now. 150mm Firefly. If you are riding a hard tail
forget it becuase you will loose low speed compliance. SPV pays off with FS
bikes and especially long travel DH bikes.

Just my 2 cents.

If you mean a Fox Forx, I'd much rather be riding that than any Manitou.
Fox has had some problems with their Float 'Shox', but the Float 'Forx' have
been ok.
