I agree with all the above, if in this instance it never ripped your testicles off then you really should have another go at it :roll: . Post up on the Mountain Cycle facebook page and try to find another front triangle, maybe even a bigger one that fits.

Ouch ZZ, you're a lucky man, no need to re-test that theory, new front triangle in bigger size or a longer seatpost/

Speak to Danson76 he's just finished repairing the Manitou FS and I was put onto him by his Pace repair for another forum member which involved quite a bit of work....

Could even get a longer ST put in there plus maybe some reinforcement / gussetry?
