I'm thinking about a new 160mm fork and i'm curious about a Zeb, a Mezzer and an Ohlins.
Is there any support for Manitou here in Australia? Does everyone service them themselves? What do you do if there is an issue with the damper?
Thanks
The Zeb will have the best aftermarket support hands down. The Ohlins distro is based in Thailand but they work closely with NS Dynamics. As mentioned Manitou local distro is Cyclingdeal but most likely you will be getting warranty work done in NZ with Shockcraft.
If its any consolation Mtb Suspension Centre (and presumably NS Dynamics) have a good relationship with Shockcraft. They have been able to service all of my Manitou stuff no problem including 15 year old Swinger 3 way and my MRD Dorado.
Don't forget to include the Durolux and the DVO Onyx in your thinking. Both are top flite forks with very low reported incidences of creaking CSUs. Not surprising given they are made in the same factory.
