Latest Product Reviews

The Good

Gets the job done with minimal servicing.
Sleek

The Bad

...catastrophic failure of the bottom cup.
Super shady warranty fine-print.
They have no contact number for customer service, and they won't seem to respond to the bike shop that I am dealing with.

Overall Review

For a headset whose name includes adjectives such as "xtreme" and "pro", the thing just didn't stand up to abuse like I thought it would. It has a 10 year warranty if you never use it for aggressive riding or competition. What the hell? If they stood behind their product and simply replaced it, this would have been a completely different story.

Vital MTB Stack Hoody

The Good

Comfy, soft and warm. Zipper works. Be a walking/riding billboard for the coolest mtb website since Litter!

The Bad

Ooh, Vital is forcing a negative comment in order to submit my review. I like that.

However..I haven't any negative comments about my treasured Vital hoodie.

Seamless installation, no surprises. Deep cup insertion - no rocking ever, no ovalized head tubes. The bearings are huge, so no worries for huckers. Looks like it came out of the Lockheed test facility.

Manitou Dorado Pro (2010) Downhill Fork

The Good

Simple air system to work with, excellent damping with a wide range, impressively stiff, and very lightweight for the budget-minded model of this fork. Comes in a totally awesome custom case.

The Bad

How disappointed I'll be when I scratch it!!!!

Overall Review

After riding this fork for a little over a month on a variety of terrain, all I can say is: the Dorado Pro is forking excellent!!!! Really looking forward to riding this fork over the long haul. Manitou has got this dialed.
