There is a new line of forks coming out from Manitou called the Stance. The forks will be cheaper than the Sherman line, and will feature TPC damping, so this line will alter the Sherman lineup for sure. I dont know anything about the 05 slider, but there will be a Stance fork called the Kingpin that appears to be a Slider but with TPC damping. For 05, there is also supposed to be an update of SPV, which should be nice.

Talk to me in about 2 weeks, I should have an '05 Breakout Plus by then. I'll give you details once I get the fork.

I'd like to know if I can have this installed in my '04 chasis

I really like the idea of the Stance forks, great chassis, great damping... who needs SPV on the front end, especially with people commenting on the "unusual" feel it gives.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone know if the '04 guts are compatable with the '03 chassis?

I think it's more accurate to say that an SPV fork has a different feel rather than unusual. There are benefits beyond the whole pedal bob issue. One benefit that I am liking with my SPV Breakout is that the low frequency filtering keeps the fork from diving while braking (a nice feature on steep terrain). The greater adjustability in progreessiveness over TPC+ is also nice.

Manitou says no, but I know of one person who owns '03 and '04 Breakouts and has swapped the internals between the two with zero problems. But there are supposedly some differences in the lowers.
