actually, its a problem with these forks, i know at least 4 ppl who have borken the forks and claimed warranty, and my LBS alone has replaced about 8 of the forks. in the end manitou upgraded my forks for me for free. as they did witheveryone else, they gave my last years model but two levels up, so im not complaining.frank-oi said:why would you get the forks again after the 2nd time. you could just say to your shop get the warrentie and and few more $50 notes then you could have steped up in the forks.
if it keeps you on the bike and the bike out of the shop then most people are happy. especialy manitou. cause they don't have to give you new forks every couple of months.
but if your doing shit that cracks thought the magnesium then im guessing that your doing what the forks wernt ment for . im sure the forks are more then capable for single track and fire roads and the like but they were not ment for dh and jumping.
