Hi,
I'll soon need to replace a Manitou Black on my 2005 Stumpjumper 120. Ideally I'd like a thru-axel fork, but most of the forks I've looked at extend beyond 130mm. Specialized recommend sticking to 120.
Buying a Pike and keeping it below 130 isn't an option because I swap bikes with other riders, who would change settings etc and risk damaging the frame.
Can anyone suggest a good fork for this bike?

The Pike dual air has internal All Travel adjustment - fit the 20mm spacer to drop the travel to 120, then nobody can fiddle with it!0

20mm spacer? News to me.
None of the LBSs I've spoken to have mentioned this either.
Cool, will investigate. Thanks.
edit - any other recommendations still useful....0 -
Its called the All Travel system.0
