    What's this thing called (fork part)?

    Yup. Looks like the same one on my Psylo. I just call it a lock out knob and the other side has the u turn knob. I wonder if someone could 3-D print new ones?

    Not sure what you're doing but can't you just mount the V brakes and use the cable noodle? Fisher CR 7 originally equipped with canti's Now running XTR V Barkes.

    New Project-2004 Giant DS2 Warp

    Got around to adding shifters and stringing brake/shifter cables. Added grips and brake lever covers. Need a new shock bolt. Original threads are stripped on mounting bolt. I had one but it was just a hair too short.

    New Project-2004 Giant DS2 Warp

    I'll add my Answer Manitou 4 pics. This project is still sitting on the back burner for now. The lower 2 elastomers were mush and the uppers were very sticky. Seems the uppers were not originals? Mine had 3 larger elastomers instead of 5 smaller ones. Seals fell apart also.

    New Project-2004 Giant DS2 Warp
