The Manitou Dorado Expert steps up the performance of the legendary Dorado platform with a more refined damping package built for riders who spend serious time on serious terrain. The inverted chassis design keeps unsprung weight low and stiffness high — the same fundamental advantage that made the Dorado iconic in downhill racing — now paired with the Dorado Expert's upgraded IVA (Internal Volume Adjust) air spring for a more customizable spring curve from top to bottom of the stroke.
Where the Comp gives you the Dorado foundation, the Expert adds IVA volume adjustment so you can tune ramp-up to match your terrain and riding style without swapping tokens. Combined with the VTT damper's 6-position compression and rebound adjustability, this fork gives you the tools to run it exactly how you want — whether that's bike park laps, enduro stages, or everything in between.
