The new Mattoc is the fruit of one of the most profound development cycles in Manitou history. It is the physical embodiment of “great things take time”. It is not an offering that follows the crowd, designed around the latest trend or buzz of the market. Rather, a component that aims to add real value and benefit to the rider. Capable of not only pulling duty in a range of disciplines ranging from XC to light enduro but doing so with zero compromise makes the Mattoc “best-in-class” ! The lightest, stiffest, and most tunable fork over more segments than any of its competitors, the Mattoc PRO is an amazingly versatile product capable of vastly improving your time in the saddle. At 1750 grams it is a featherweight solution given its wide travel range, yet its industry leading stiffness lends it to a performance without rival. Consider also its amazing reliability and you have a fork that does it all and does it amazingly. A true, no-compromise, authentic fork, serving the real needs of the widest range of the mtb public and offering serious performance advantages to each individual one of them, no matter how they choose to ride.

The Dorado Air spring with IRT allows for an extremely lightweight build yet a suspension performance derived from our top-of-the-line DH fork. Compression damping via MC2 Sealed Cartridge with HBO technology and a sealed damper TPC for rebound, and you’ve got yourself an extremely sophisticated piece of suspension technology. Adjustable Air, IRT, Rebound, High and Low Speed compression make for perhaps the most tunable, personalized custom performance suspension solution available on the market. Include all of this technology into an extremely stiff, reliable, 1750 gram package and you have a ride-changing component that is the envy of the industry

• 59 grams decrease from the previous model.
• Over 19% stiffness increase from current 27.5”
160mm to new 27.5” 150mm. 29” Stiffness
increases are higher.
• DoradoTM air allows for internal travel
adjustments with no added parts. New travel
spacers account for negative air volume
change, so the 110mm fork has the same
initial stroke feel as the 150mm.
• Dorado Air spring systems 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. Dorado Air is our
lightest weight air spring technology.
• Infinite Rate TuneTM (IRT) allows for advanced
spring tuning by independently adjusting air
pressures in the beginning and end stroke.
IRT technology creates a secondary positive
air spring that effects only the middle to
end stroke of the fork. This allows the
main air spring to be set to lower pressures
for improved small bump sensitivity while
maintaining mid-stroke support and moderate
to aggressive end-stroke ramp-up.
• Sealed Dampers offer more consistent
damping and lighter break away force,
especially over long descents. Our Damper
uses a bladder system to compensate for
head build up along with a relief valve. Using
both systems give us consistency along with
long service life. Having non adjustable HBO
eases setup for the user.
• TSR (Trail Side Relief) casting bleed screws
allow users to release casting pressure from
the fork. Releasing casting pressure can
improve overall fork feel and small bump
compliance.

Mattoc in the News

"Manitou does a good job of thoughtfully challenging convention. ..the Mattoc is a prime example of that. It’s a fork that will mean different things to different riders, and is ready to adapt to meet those needs."

Cy Whitling, Bike Magazine
USA

"The fork just keeps feeling awesome...this is the best riding fork I've ever been on."

Andrew Major, NSMB
Canada

"Manitou has done a great job of adapting those designs to make a more plush, more forgiving, and lighter Trail bike fork for the sorts of folks who find forks like the Mezzer to be overkill."

David Golay, Blister
USA

"the Mattoc proves you can look away from the bigger brands when it comes to suspension."

Manitou Mattoc LE

MC2 Damper

The Mattoc Pro features a trail tuned MC2 sealed damper that offers more consistent damping and lighter break away force, especially over long descents. Our Damper uses a bladder system to compensate for heat build up along with a relief valve. Using both systems give us consistency along with long service life. The system uses Manitou’s HBO (Hydraulic Bottom Out) system to control the final 30mm of travel, ensuring the rider never feels the bottom of their travel on even the biggest hits.

Infinite Rate Tune

Infinite Rate Tune (IRT) allows for advanced spring tuning by independently adjusting air pressures in the beginning and end stroke and is available as an aftermarket upgrade to both Expert and Comp forks. IRT technology creates a secondary positive air spring that effects only the middle to end stroke of the fork. This allows the main air spring to be set to lower pressures for improved small bump sensitivity while maintaining mid-stroke support and moderate to aggressive end-stroke ramp-up.

Chassis

What makes the Mattoc’s versatility even more amazing is that it comes without compromise. The “versatile specificity” of this fork means that it adapts perfectly to many disciplines and styles of riding and performs flawlessly in each and every one. The 34mm chassis represents best in class in terms of both weight and stiffness yet presents zero downsides for this strong, reliable and amazingly lightweight construction. The new Mattoc platform is 30% stiffer than the previous version and at 1750 grams for the Pro model it is both light and stiff enough for XC racing yet built not only to survive but thrive in situations all the way to light enduro.

First impressions very good

Purchased to replace RS fork with newest Charger 3, which always felt harsher than previous generations and harder to tune. Travel change was easy, took about ten minutes. Setup not too far off recommendations, at 145lb and 150mm landed around 42/100psi and have a fork that's really supple off the top without a ton of dive. Needs rebound pretty wide open not to pack down and be overwhelmed on high-speed washboard but doesn't feel uncontrolled. Saved 1/4lb off of Pike and 3/4lb from Lyrik, though the Manitou is more on par with the Pike with noticeably more fore-aft flex than a Lyrik at 150mm. A little bit of bushing play can be felt at the bridge when rocking the bike but not noticeable on the trail.

My favorite component purchase

I had purchased the Mara Shock to replace a broken Fox DPS, wanted matching suspension, so took a chance with the new Mattoc Pro. Wasn’t able to find any reviews, and I hadn’t ridden Manitou suspension before , so this was a big leap for me.
First ride on both the fork an shock was yesterday. All I can say is wow!!
What an upgrade from me previous Fox suspension.. granted I didn’t have the top end Fox stuff, but I have ridden them. The set up was super easy, and the suspension smoothed out the trail tremendously. Pressures are lower than past set ups, but I never felt unsupported. The suspension is a bit “noisier” than others I have ridden, but nothing that would deter me from recommending Manitou to anyone.
