Manitou McLeod

Although the Manitou McLeod has been superseded by the Manitou Mara Inline we continue to provide support and parts for the McLeod.

The McLeod was a new shock for 2015 based on a completely new concept.  It is simple, lightweight and offers rebound adjustment alongside a compression adjustment that also increases pedalling platform.  The McLeod was available in imperial sizes and metric eyelet sizes.  Trunnion versions are not available at this time.  They feature an air-spring with captive negative air and a damper that can be rebuilt at home.

The McLeod was named after a favourite trail building tool: the McLeod Fire Rake.  It's unique shape is featured on the graphic.

Upgrades:

Make your McLeod even better with these upgrades.


King-Can


The King-Can is a high volume air-can with two internal positions for medium or high volume.  The need for a higher volume can is usually determined by your bike linkage design.  If the correct air pressure and response gives you too much sag then you need more air volume.

    We have included a list of recommended and optional items for working on your McLeod or Mara Inline shocks

    King Cans
    KIng cans are recommended for shocks with a stroke of over 50 mm, especially on progressive suspension linkages.  More linear bikes with shocks of more than 50 mm stroke may be okay without a king can.  Our Mara Inline king cans are listed here, McLeod king cans are listed here.
