Find Your New Suspension

ManitouManitou pioneered mountain bike suspension, with the first-ever suspension fork introduced by Manitou in 1989.  Since then Manitou has pursued the "Science of Smooth" with decades of extensive R&D.  Manitou has always looked for the perfect balance of weight, durability and performance.  Testing at national and global levels has resulted in Manitou earning a reputation for having some of the most reliable suspension products on the market.

Manitou is distributed by Shockcraft in New Zealand because we know it produces the best and most reliable suspension in the business.  Manitou's suspension can be tuned better and more easily than that of any other brand.  It offers not only better out of the box performance but can be fully customised to suit almost any rider.

To help you find the right suspension for your bike and type of riding use our Fork Search Tool or Rear Shock Search Tool.

  1. Manitou Mara GEN 2 Comp Inline Rear Shock
    Manitou Mara Pro GEN 2 Comp Inline rear shock

    Inline design allows shock to shed weight while still offering support and performance for the majority of riding styles
    Trail specific tune designed for maximum shock responsiveness, making it perfect for aggressive riding
    This tune gives the best feel in open small bump sensitivity; increases compression across the adjuster range to a mid-firm platform that is great for pedalling up technical climbs where traction is balance with pedalling efficiency
    Mara Comp Inline has simplified arcitecture compared to the Mara Pro Inline
    It lacks rebound detents and different materials have been used, meaning a lower price point

    All versions apart from XC versions are configured with a new King Can with an active positive/negative system called Balance Groove Technology
    XC versions are fitted with a XC Shim Stack & Lite Can
    The Lite Can also utilises the same Balance Groove Technology but with a reduction in overall volume for riders looking for a less linear feel to the shock

    Ready Mix Tune - Targeted Tuning
    Available with optional Shockcraft Ready Mix Tune.  The Ready Mix Tune is our Pick & Mix Self Tune with the picking, mixing and install already done for you.  With the Ready Mix Tune you will get the right combination of playfulness, poppiness and plantedness.  The shock will be stable, supportive and suck up the bumps.  You'll notice huge changes in feel, speed and confidence.  There is also a choice of Trail tune for incremental compression or XC tune with firm lockout.

  4. Manitou Mara GEN 2 Pro Piggyback Rear Shock
    Manitou Mara Pro GEN 2 Pro Piggyback rear shock

    Gravity-orientated with piggyback design
    Shorter reservoir and lower profile Work/Party lever, to improve compatibility with the widest offering of frames possible
    Two separate damping circuits that can be activated or bypassed by the Work/Party mode lever
    Having two separate circuits allows the rider to have two no-compromise options, for climbing and descending
    Word mode is a preset, independent damping circuit designed for climbing
    Party mode is an externally adjustable high and low speed compression circuit that offers a large range of tuning for a variety of riders and conditions
    A new compression piston and updated shim stacks have been designed in conjunction with the Gen 2 Balance Groove Air Cans
    Together these provide improved small bump compliance along with support that can be tuned with the external compression adjusters and internal air volume adjustment
    DH versionis based off the exact same core build but removes the unnecessary Work/Party levers, eliminating the possibility for inadvertent actioning of platform
