[@MrTheScorpio90]

What model of shock is it? Manitou Mara 190?. Which ride? 42,5mm?

[@KasimirBlanco]

XC w/o remote lockout? Not for me... But nice selection of components. Not the usual suspects.

[@ancogbernard]

weak hands. 😂😂😂

[@MotiKrispil]

Are you happy with the Manitou R7? Is it the PRO version? I'm considering buying their 100mm R7 Pro but found no solid reviews of it

[@andresfelipegomez5773]

In my case, I have a Manitou R7 pro 2021, which I really loved, at first I had many doubts when buying it because there is very little information from users who have tried it. At first I liked the technology that was implemented in the suspension system and it is also cheaper than RS and Fox and I decided to buy it. After many km I can say that I do not regret it, it is very stiff, I come from fox performance 32 and it is much more rigid than this and its operation is much better in general, it has three positions, open, trail and closed, the closed mode, It's really closed, it doesn't sink at all, I use it for asphalt climbs, as for the open one it's wonderful, it has its own dial where you can adjust it to your liking. Maybe the aesthetics can throw someone off (I love it) and the weight, mine is 1635gr against position, you can adjust it from 80mm to 120mm simply by adding or removing spacers that come with the fork, I have it at 110mm on a hardtail and I love it. I have also tried the SIDs with the race day cartridge and I can tell you that much of the work has to be done by the arms, also this cartridge ends up breaking sooner or later I have already seen several damaged ones that have to be changed, I don't know if Rockshox has improved it.

Dram Build???

[@fewkilometersaday]

dream build*

[@emjotmanemjotman6132]

Das Bike ist überraschend schwer mit über 11Kg ohne Pedale. Dazu in manchen Details ( Steuerrohr mit Plastikzugführungsdeckel, und Schrumpfschlauchnummer für Schaltzughülle/Bremsleitung, dazu der Bastelflaschenhalter am Sitzrohr) eher ziemlich hässlich. Ansonsten stimmiger Aufbau.
