The Manitou Circus has set the benchmark for the everyday riders' jump session requirements, and delivered podium results at pro-level competitions for almost a decade.

The Circus has a firm coil spring with air preload and a firm valved ABS+ compression damper to take the impact out of hard landings.  The 20 mm axle and 26" wheel size keeps the front end stiff and strong. The firm spring and damping is also ideally suited to longtail cargo bikes, where more of the rider's weight is on the fork.  This fork can also be revalved and tuned to become an excellent trail fork for multiple use bikes.
