This is the first generation 32 mm version of the Manitou JUnits.  We have been able to secure a small number of 20" JUnit Pro 32 mm forks, which are incoming from Manitou ex-USA.  Please contact us to check availability.

A high performance suspension fork for 20" and 24" wheeled bikes, bringing performance, speed and safety to younger riders.

The Machete JUnit Pro is the evolution of Manitou's JUnit suspension line.  Building off of the already incredible Machete JUnit Expert, the Pro offers an added level of adjustability with IRT (Infinite Rate Tune).  IRT offers improved small bump sensitivity without sacrificing any mid to late stroke support.  This is especially important for youth riders who can easily be bumped off line by roots and rocks a heavier rider may not even notice.  Available in both 20" and 24", this fork is a great upgrade for any youth rider looking to have more control on the trail.

20" Machete JUnit Pro is also available for fitment to cargo bikes (details here).

Available for order now.  If not in stock please contact us and we can advise ETA.

A high performance suspension fork for 24" and 26" wheeled bikes, bringing performance, speed and safety to younger riders.

The JUnit 34 mm Pro is a professional level fork with differences only coming from the size and tune specific to younger riders and their unique needs.  Everything else is built up to the standards of the most demanding athlete competing at the sport's highest level, yet tailored to give specific benefits to the next generation of mountain biking stardom.

At 1,750 grams the Pro version of the JUnit is extremely light, especially considering its 100 to 160 mm travel range.

The Dorado Air spring with IRT derives from the same technology used in Manitou's top professional adult forks.  The VTT 6 position compression damping and half cartridge adjustable TPC rebound dampening make for a ride that most adults would envy.  With adjustable air, IRT, rebound and 6-position compression, even smaller riders can enjoy the uncommon benefit of a suspension performance tailored to their specific and individual needs.

Available for special order ex-Manitou USA.  Please contact us to check availbility.

A high performance suspension fork for 24" and 26" wheeled bikes, bringing performance, speed and safety to younger riders.

The JUnit 34 mm Expert combines a stiff, 34 mm chassis with the most functional suspension performance available on the market for younger riders.

The 100 to 160 mm travel range ensures that this single fork can cover nearly any discipline your young rider cares to take on.  It has the adjustability to allow them to change their minds without the need to change forks.

This 1,840 gram fork is sturdy, reliable, yet plenty light enough for smaller riders to control comfortably.

The Expert Air spring with IVA, ABS+ compression damping and in-leg adjustable TPC allows for big performance for growing riders.  Adjustable air, air volume, rebound and compression ensure that the performance is not only tailored to a younger rider but precisely to your younger rider and his or her specific needs.
