style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">I rode the fork last Friday and Saturday on one of my favorite tracks to test the suspension: the descent from Monte Tamaro, Switzerland. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">14 km for a difference in altitude of 1400 meters on a track that at first is very rocky, then fast and full of steps, finally becoming more flowy, then at the very end going back into a very technical part, again on rocks. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The settings were identical both days.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a

style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Despite being very sensitive at the beginning of travel, the first cm are not eaten up too easily, but it always remains beautifully supple. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">It has a very slight ramp up until the last 2cm, where it then becomes very progressive.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">In practice this manifests itself with a very quiet front wheel that is easy to keep under control and in an ideal trajectory. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">After a while I found myself choosing lines that I usually avoided because they presented an obstacle like a not so ideally placed rock. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Since the Mezzer didn&#8217;t blow through the travel or bottom easily, I enjoyed going over boulders \/ rocks without thinking much about it. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">On the impacts that were more successive the sensation I got was, yes this is a fork that eats everything up, without however becoming too buttery and wallowing.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a

style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Considering that I left the high speed <span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">compression <\/span>almost completely open, I can say that the factory setting is not overly &#8220;racey&#8221;, meaning it won&#8217;t hurt your hands. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This argument, however, needs more evidence, because I mounted the Protaper cockpit, also part of the Hayes group, together with the Mezzer. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">A completely new carbon component can make it hard to judge vibration, feedback and

style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">All in all, the first impressions were very positive. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The Mezzer is certainly one of those forks that I have no problems in testing for a long time, because it is very stout and well-designed. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">It will be interesting to play around, combining the pressures of the main chamber with that of the IRT, as well as using different compression settings. Lastly, it&#8217;s worth mentioning: <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">the clicks of the LSC knob bring a substantial difference between everything closed and all open, which is nice for fine tuning how much the front end sits up in the travel.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Game on!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/manitoumtb.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Manitou<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Read the full review here] Our years of experience testing bikes and various components have taught us one thing: keeping variables (read: trails) fixed, that is riding on a familiar, well known track.
