that gross little kids' sticker sheet looks exactly like the gross little kids' sticker sheet that came with Argyles.

 

[FR4life.]

right off the bat i'm not so sure I like the crown. the fork doesnt really stand out to me as a jump fork, kinda blends in with their xc stuff.

my thoughts exactly. the crown looks unnecessarily tall, and i never really liked the look of how manitou crowns flare up on the outside edge where they meet the stanchions. the gold labels looked nicer IMO

 

[manhattanprjkt83]

just make the thing look exactly like the jump sherman of years past that thing was a really good looking fork...this thing looks like a$$, bet it rides well but most of us like subdued parts on jump bikes...not some blown out, tapered, nascar xc looking fork.

 

[FOXROX]

i got a little more info...

the crown will be changing in the summer, it will look better.

also it uses the absolute dampener.

 

[greenblinker104]

i hope they change the looks of this fork before production - this really looks like a cheap version of the older manitou blacks...i think it looks terrible. it may ride nice...but ugly

 

[JGill]

My Minute has held up fine over the last year. Considering this fork for the next build...

 

[demo 9]

still looks like ****

I think it looks good, I've been waiting for Manitou to come out with something should my GL die on me. I saw Dustin's and it looks pretty good, has a ton of adjustments.

 

[TheTruth]

I still hate the arch for footjams.

 

[JGill]

How is this fork not cute enough for you guys?!?

 

[TheTruth]

Imma let you finish, but the Manitou Circus DJ fork is bad for foot jams. The Rock Shox argyle is the best fork for foot jams of all time.

 

[Stoked]

oh yeah the clown nose makes me take you seriously. same sh1tty axle system i see, great.

 

[TheTruth]

Pinch bolts! Just what I want when I need to change a front flat! Wasting time is the best!

I don't know..........I was kind of thinking I'd get one just because of the clown nose.

same... only if it honks

 

[Patan-DH]

Why everybody is doing negative comments?

I like the fork, and is lighter and cheaper than a coil argyle, ah and have air preload.
Made in usa---- i'm sold
I would probably ditch the stickers or give them to som kid

Is a dirt jumping/street fork, once you put a good tire a good tube and 40psi you shouldn't get front tire flats, since you ride pavement, ramps and smooth dirt......

If you like foot jams i suggest you getting some tight-girl pants a big tshirt, some nike 6.0 and a cromoly rigid fork... so you will be IN

40psi? no front flats? smooth dirt and pavement?

its quite obvious that you DO NOT ride street or dirt.

put on that DH full body suit, lower them tires to low 20s and wait for fat boy lifts to open

why would a street/dirt fork need a ton of adjustments.... or any at all for that matter?

C'mon Fer, let's face it. You LOVE Manitou ;-). Get real and buy an Argyle 318. You'll never regret it.

I know with me, I've only played with my rebound a handful of times I don't really need all the adjustments. A lot of riders are different though, my guess is to cater to everyone.

 

[Pete..]

I like it. I'd buy it too if my Pike ever dies. [Knock on wood!] That said, I love my Pike and I hope it never breaks.
I was looking into the Manitou Minute series of forks a while ago when they were on uber sale on Jenson at like 300-400 bucks a pop. Pretty dope deal for an apparently light and stiff fork.

 

[Stoked]

But why do they put a guarantee on the box?

Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of sh1t. That's all it is, isn't it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time. But for now, for your customer's sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me.

[Stoked]

from the Taipei show. seems like they've been working on the crown. looks better.

 

[demo 9]

personally i still think it looks cheap, i hope (for people that buy it) that it works out great, but with the exception of the dorado, i think their stuff is garbage. Can truth footjam this version?

WTF are we still doing on hardtails? Fixies are THE FUTURE. Besides, I can footjam those with a 2010 manitou circus dj fork made out of chromoly, aluminum, and even unobtainium with a hint of lemon.

 

[Bat-Man]

[FOXROX]

to be honest im not 100% sure. i have them because that is what they had, but im not sure if the new lowers will come with a QR.
