{"product_id":"fkmt-mastodon-comp-fat","title":"Manitou Mastodon Comp - Gen 3","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Mastodon is not a modified or repurposed trail fork compatible with large tyre dimensions, but rather it is a fat bike fork made to improve any ride regardless of how low or high the numbers on the thermometer read. Creating such a dynamic fork required all-environment and all-temperature performance testing that took the R+D staff to some of the most inhospitable testing environments in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo earn its place within the Manitou family, the Mastodon passed performance and reliability testing in both real-world and lab scenarios at temperatures as low as -40 degrees. The Dorado Air, seals, lubricants, and all other internals are proven for all-weather performance, no matter how extreme on either end of the temperature spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e120g of weight savings from the previous model with a new crown, legs and internals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpert Air allows for internal travel adjustments with no added parts. New travel spacers account for negative air volume change, so the 80mm fork has the same initial stroke feel as the 140mm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpert Air spring systems contain a unique balancing valve that equalises the positive and negative air chambers during the air-fill process. This gives the spring rate a consistent feel without any flat or dead spots in the stroke, along with giving riders of different weights the same initial stroke feel. Expert Air has identical performance to DoradoTM Air in a more cost-effective package.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncremental Volume Adjust (IVA) modifies the volume in the positive air chamber with self-contained spacers dictating the position of the IVA piston. This allows the main air spring ramp-up to be tuned to the rider's weight, style and conditions without the need for additional parts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbsolute Plus (ABS+) is a shim stack-based damper that features external incremental Low-Speed compression adjustment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe new tune increases wheel traction, rider comfort and control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe new crown is 94g lighter, with increased knob clearance. 44mm offset to match modern fat bike geometry for precise handling and increased traction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFront brake routing allows the user to use the same length brake hose from their rigid fork, or other suspension fork. Updated casting with non-threaded compression rod holes for ease of service. New arch ribs for increased casting stiffness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTyre diameter clearance is 2mm shorter than the current EXT model, with a 6mm reduction of axle to crown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWheel Size: 26\/27.5\" Fat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffset: 44mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAxle To Crown: 80mm travel - 504mm, 100mm travel - 524mm, 120mm travel - 544mm, 140mm travel - 564mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTravel: 80-140mm internally adjustable in 10mm increments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpring: Expert Air w\/ IVA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompression: ABS+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRebound Damping: in-leg adjustable TPC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustments: Air, Air Volume, Rebound, Compression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteerer: 1.5\" Tapered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrown: Forged Aluminum, Hollow Bore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeg Diameter: 34mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeg Material: 6000 - Series Straight Wall Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrake Post Mount: 180mm (203mm Max)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAxle: 15mm x 150mm Hexlock SL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax Tyre: Size 26x5.05\"\/27.5x4.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eE-pac: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 2254g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Manitou","offers":[{"title":"Fatbike 100mm \/ Black","offer_id":47184062021807,"sku":"FKMTTC100","price":699.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fatbike 120mm \/ Black","offer_id":47184062054575,"sku":"FKMTTC120","price":699.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/2003\/4223\/files\/fkmt-mastodon-comp-fat.jpg?v=1784298225","url":"https:\/\/www.swinnertoncycles.co.uk\/products\/fkmt-mastodon-comp-fat","provider":"Swinnerton Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
