MATTOC DOES IT ALL
110-150mm travel, light, adaptable, tunable, the one fork you need for the majority of your riding
On your biggest rides, don’t carry the extra weight you don’t need, don’t sacrifice the suspension performance you need for the gnarliest descents.
• Bridges the gap between the R7 and Mezzer forks.
• 120mm of travel and below with an emphasis on chassis stiffness and damper adjustability, choose Mattoc over R7
• 140mm of travel and up with an emphasis on lower chassis weight with the same adjustability, choose Mattoc over Mezzer
• 120mm today for your xc race, 140mm tomorrow for your lift access days, Mattoc does it all with easy travel adjustment
MATTOC DAMPER TECHNOLOGY
VTT - 6 POSITION (Mattoc Expert)
VTT-6P is our compression damper technology featuring a single
external compression adjuster that simultaneously adjusts HS and LS
damping characteristics. It features a fixed shim stack and a secondary
shim stack that is preloaded by the external adjuster. The resulting wide
tuning range combines the benefits of a Low-speed platform and High-
speed progressive tune can suite any terrain. From fire-road climbs to
big flowy jump lines to high-speed chunky rocks, VTT-6P can adapt to
all terrain with flick of a switch
MATTOC AIR SPRING AND VOLUME ADJUSTMENT TECHNOLOGY
EXPERT AIR (Mattoc Expert and Comp)
The Manitou Expert Air spring system contain a unique balancing valve that equalizes
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.
IVA (Mattoc Expert and Comp)
Incremental 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 weight, style and conditions without the need
for additional parts
