As far as I'm aware the lower end Manitou damping is fine, but I don't really know much about them. It's a completely different system from the MC2 damper in the bigger forks, and I'm not light enough to be less demanding of my shocks. Seems you missed the golden years of cheap Mattocs and Magnums unfortunately, and they're putting all efforts into the Mezzer now

My advice is: do what Tom says.
And keep an eye out for a mattoc pro NIB/taken off bike etc. That’s how I got mine on eBay.

Do you know anything about the Machete fork? It's quite cheap. But 32mm stanchions and 2kg.
Is there a better option? Mattoc Pros seem to be sold out everywhere. Want 130mm (maybe 140mm if A2C not too large), 27.5+/29, boost, for blasting around trails
