These 8 inch travel coil spring forks are controlled by an oil bath recirculating cartridge system based on today's most advanced motorcycle suspensions.

At the end of travel an oil lock chamber is used to resist bottoming. The compression and rebound valving is customized for each rider's ability, making the MTN-8's the most advanced forks available for downhill racers.
