I grade products as honestly as possible and depict blemishes in both description and photos—please study them carefully. I tend to be overcritical and customers report items to be in better shape than expected often. From best condition to worst condition, my grading scale is as follows. Mint / near mint+ / near mint / excellent+ / excellent / great / very good / average / fair.

Description

The EFC was Manitou's last CNC machined vintage styled fork! It was essentially an upgrade from the Manitou Four. It retains the same Easton Taperlite legs & CNC crown, but in addition to the Manitou elastomer system is an oil dampening cartridge with a nine position knob.  These were made in 1995 and 1996, and available in both XC & DH formats. This XC uses standard quick release & (probably) 2.5 inches of travel while the DH uses a special Ringle "thru axle" and came set up for 3" travel. There was a conversion kit to switch between 2.5 and 3", I can't tell exactly which one this is.  The stock fork brace has been upgraded with a Two Wheel Performance Products arch.  Killer fork for your mid 1990's retro mtb!

Condition

Near mint lightly used shape! It feels amazing, super smooth with wonderful rebound/compression.  It feels as if it could have been freshly rebuilded.  Minimal cosmetic wear makes it show bike worthy for many.  The non-driveside leg and both fork ends have some light wear and the back of the crown has some scratching, otherwise only very minimal wear.  Boots are in great shape, free of damage/wear but the usual dirt is present.  The top caps on this are not the stock model, I'm not sure what they're from.

I'm always buying high end bikes, parts, accessories, memorabilia, etc. While I'm particularly seeking large piles of new old stock parts, used items in nice condition are welcome.
