		Manitou R8 Pro Remote Lockout XC air spring fork Manitou's Research and Development (MRD) spent nearly two full seasons of the World Cup testing and perfecting the ideal XC fork with elite athletes, with the prototype being kept under wraps through clever masking. From its first iteration, the fork has secured podiums on the world stage. In other words, what started as an initial test turned into a successful project, creating the most complete available racing XC suspension package. Curious minds had no idea that beneath the intriguing exterior lay the ultimate compromise killer: MANITOU R8. ACE/DEUCE – COMPLETE CONTROL SMOOTHNESS – Creating the next level of reliable, lightweight, and performance-oriented front suspension required the development of a fork that would perform in all situations and easily adapt to diverse terrain and conditions. Manitou worked tirelessly to create a premium-level remote system to give the rider complete control over the suspension. While the R8 will still have the option for a manual controller, it's most likely that most XC riders will prefer the remote solution. The combination of ACE and DEUCE is a remote lockout (also known as Lockout) for the fork, shock, and dropper post, made by Manitou. The Ace lever controls the dropper post, while the Deuce lever controls both the fork and shock. The two levers are stackable and can be configured in a way that's most comfortable for the rider. In other words, the Ace can be mounted above or below the Deuce and can also be set up as a standalone lever. Dorado Air w/IVA Spring: As the name suggests, this is a spring derived from the legendary downhill forks of Manitou Dorado. It elegantly and precisely balances the air pressure between the positive and negative chambers during the fork's inflation, thanks to a balancing valve. This provides the fork with a consistent feel, with no flat or dead spots in the travel.
