Backwards compatible upgrades? Surely not. We had the Manitou Mezzer G1 Pro & G2 Pro 170 apart side by side to see what still fits.

See link in comments for full Mezzer Upgrade & Interchange Guide.

Need more fork for your E-bike? This is the Mezzer Comp. Up to 190mm travel, simple setup, easy to service and with Manitou's legendary ABS+ damper. Bolted onto a brand new Specialized Levo 4 Comp.

These are light (2300g cut), strong and performance wise an absolute giant killer.
Travel changes use the included spacers and cost nothing but time.

Raise your hand if you're out enjoying spring weather instead of maintaining a bike that's crying out for it?

/Need a solid coil shock for your Yoke bike? These high strength steel shafts fix the achilles heel of the Bomber CR shocks. High strength steel 65 mm shafts are now on the shelf beside our existing 55 mm shafts.

These shafts are needed for bikes which are hard on shocks, including those with yokes and off-set yokes. Particularly Specialized Evo/Levo and Commencal.

Mix them up with a Rockeater Tune Kit and you've got a world beating shock at a fantastic price.

Shafts and Rockeater tune parts are all custom manufactured in New Zealand. Also fit Fox Vanilla RC shocks.

More info: see link in comments.

It doesn't matter who makes your fork - your wiper seals were likely made by SKF or Trelleborg.

Here we have an aftermarket SKF fork seal kit and an OEM Fox fork seal kit; both made by SKF. Trelleborg and SKF are two Swedish giants who have cornered the MTB fork seal market at the OEM and aftermarket levels. Whether your fork is made by Fox, Rockshox, Manitou X-Fusion or RST it's likely got seals from these guys.

Whether you want Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or aftermarket seals for service. We have you covered.

If you're working on your own Rockshox or Fox forks you'll be dealing with Crush Washers.

These are little plastic washers which sit between the foot nuts/bolts and bottom of the castings on your fork. Their whole purpose in life is to protect the finish on the lower legs. Fork lower legs are almost all painted magnesium. If you break through the paint layer the magnesium can quickly corrode.

There are benefits to bringing your steel 180mm Enduro bike to an Elite XC race!

Mass Start of the Linger & Die MTB race xc last weekend. Red plates are Elite, Blue plates are open/sport. The mountain run left an hour earlier.

Fantastic event with huge local support and wide competitors turnout. Jono Miller took out the overall and won the Technical Terrain challenge by 1 second. Just beating organiser Jonny's benchmark time.

Stay tuned for the Enduro race in Autumn.
