Manitou is reborn.

Manitou is alive and kicking with some truly exciting new products. Under the guidance of Hayes, Manitou is re-inventing itself to once again produce high-quality and innovative products.

Manitou Minute 29er - Built on the Minute Platform, it weighs 3.8 lbs in the air spring version. Travel is 80, 100, 120mm, available separately.

The Absolute Damper system provides an adjustable range of stable platform. It can fit a 2.5″ tire and comes in standard QR or Hex Lock thru-axle versions.

Playing around with it in the parking lot, the action is stiction free and the travel seems very plush. We can’t wait to try this one!

    Its good to see Manitou back. I have been a loyal customer and their future was scaring me. I can’t wait to see their new lineup of rear air shocks and choose one to breath new life into my 2005 SC Bullit.
