[QUOTE="Ben Schepper, post: 693714, member: 63825"] "Ben/Sea...do they still make/sell the polymer thingies for the old Manitou fork shocks?" Elastomers went out years ago (8+). They are a dead technology you would be better off getting a new fork. You can get a newer (2003 +) Manitou black which will be lighter, stiffer, and have a much plush travel progression for 100$ on ebay. Plus it uses a modern coil/oil combo which is easier to maintain. I tell customers who have elastomers to throw the fork away. We can fix em. Manitou cant fix em. They dont even want to admit they made them :blink: [/QUOTE]
