Details

Ready Mix Tune for the Manitou Mara Inline is Shockcraft's unique Pick & Mix Self Tune system but the Picking, Mixing and Installation has been done by Shockcraft for you.

This tuning system gives you compression and rebound damping matched to your weight, bike, terrain and riding style.  It includes a new Manitou damper piston and reshimmed compression and rebound damping.

With the Ready Mix Tune we have 7 different compression and rebound tunes available, spanning 5 different grades.  These grades range from <40 kg children to >100 kg Dadzillas, with a choice of trail or XC feel.  Compression and rebound tunes are matched to spring-rates.  Rebound has the right combination of playfulness, poppiness and plantedness.  Compression is matched to stay stable, supportive and suck up bumps.  This provides huge changes in feel, speed and confidence.

Why Ride the Manitou Mara Inline Shocks?
Mara Inline shocks are light, tough, punch well above their weight and being inline shocks, have no fitment issues.  They can be rebuilt at home and are the perfect air shocks for 90-95% of the mountainbike trails worldwide.

Who Is Mara Inline with McMara Pick & Mix Self Tune Ideal For?
•   Riders 40kg to ~120kg depending on frame leverage.
•   Bikes 100 mm to ~160 mm travel.
•   Riding XC race, trail through to light Enduro and E-bikes.
•   Riders who have a Pick & Mix Mezzer Pro or Mattoc Pro 2023 fork and want to match the feel front and rear.

Who Is It Not Ideal For?
•   If you want coil then you want coil.
•   Sizes top out at 230 mm eyelet and 205 mm trunnion, which is a hard limit for the big bikes.
•   Past 55 mm stroke riders on progressive leverage frames will want the bigger king-can air-can.
•   Big riders riding jump lines will find inline shocks rapidly heat and cool which speeds/slows the damping.  We can mitigate that with higher VI oil but ultimately those guys need to be on bigger shocks with more thermal mass.
