    Favorite Trail:Bootleg Canyon
    Duration Product Used:1 Year
    Price Paid: $250.00
    Strengths:Smooth action, with very little stiction here in the desert.
    Light weight for its strength and travel.
    Pretty rigid. Tracks well with little deflection through rock gardens.
    I like the TPC+, it works well and there is no air pressure to mess with. It gives the user a choice of platform pedaling or none at all, out in the field with no tools or pump required.
    Weaknesses:I've had zero problems with this fork, however you need a special tool, to take off the spring side top cap.
    The solution is to take the spring out of the bottom after removing the sliders.
    Similar Products Used:04 Minute One. Fox Vanillas.
    Bike Setup:I use this fork on a 06 Mountain Cycle San Andreas DHS.
    Bottom Line:This review is for the 130mm TPC+ version.
    I originally bought this fork because it was on closeout and was affordable, but I got one of those pleasant surprises in the mail.
    this fork has been just as reliable and easy to use as some Fox Vanillas I've used.
    This fork has given me no problems whatsoever, which is a big surprise, as my 04 Minute One was less than stellar, when it came to stiction and rebound knobs breaking off.
    In fairness; Manitou mailed me new rebound assemblies in two working days for the Minute One.
    The 06 Manitou Minute Two is a great Trailbike and All Mountain fork.
    I really like the TPC+, as it allows a wide range of adjustment with no tools. It also allows for no platform at all, if thats what you need for the day.
