    I’m looking for some 29Plus suspension forks with 120mm travel. Anyone know what my current options are?

    Manitou Magnum Pro – actually a very good fork!
    29+ Pikes don’t seem to be available yet except OEM
    You can fit a fox 34 27.5+ boost as well

    Oh, and you can use a Lauf if that’s your thing.

    Also, MRP stage will do 29×3.

    Manitou Magnum Comp here, it is fine but lacks mid stroke support so is a bit divey. I have been called suspension blind in the past so it must be pretty poor for me to notice. It and the Manitou Machete are cheap though.

    The RS Yari now comes in 29+. I would try to find one of them as Pikes are just too pricey.

    With some slight modifications a 29″ Fox 34 will work. The 27.5+ Boost apparently also works.

    Maverick DUC32 if you like tinkering. Can be had pretty cheap, and are a pretty good fork IMO. They are about 120mm travel once you’ve fitted 29er travel reducers.

    The Pro has the damper from the Dorado. I prefer it to the Pikes on my other bike. Feels very floaty.

    Hmmm, Yari could be an option. Used to have some Maverick sc32’s years ago…

    I think I’ve seen boost Sid’s and Reba’s may also do the job over on MTBr Forums, worth a google. Might be a bit twangy for some tho!!

    Can anyone advise which Yari takes 29+ and would I need a boost hub? (think Pro2 can be converted nowadays maybe??)

    There is a new 29+ specific version but I’m damned if I can find it anywhere in the UK online. Might be worth a chat with a dealer, or maybe Zyro aren’t bringing them in.

    Good question on which Yari. Also where are the Magnum Pro’s available?

    I saw CRC selling the Magnum pro in 29+ off in their sale for £390 around about New Year, ummed and awed and now they’re gone….

    It may just be the way I ride but I found the machete flexier than a fleet thing from flexy thing and winner of the international fleet competition. They also have the cheap damper alas.

    Another vote for Magnum Pros, very good fork and held up well so far on this. Also looked at Boost 27.5 34 option too but decided on the Magnum, also Blutos will work as well as the Wren fatty forks or Carver Gnavester forks.
