I have decided to get a new Manitou R7 fork, but they have 2 versions; PRO and MRD. My cost difference would be $100 more for the MRD and I dont fully understand the differences. The MRD is lighter by .38lbs and uses "cartridge" for damping.
Is it a big deal to have the cartridge? I dont know much about shocks.
If it makes a difference I`m not too hardcore with my riding, I`m 48yrs, 5`5", and 142lbs. I ride XC trails and hit smaller jumps at times.
Specs are here; R7 | Manitou
