Hayes has unveiled a new addition to the Mezzer family, the Mezzer Expert. Utilising the same chassis as the Mezzer Pro, the Expert features 37mm stanchions built from 7000 series aluminium and Hayes’ Reverse Arch technology. This keeps the fork light at 2,030g (27.5in at 180mm) making the Expert the “second lightest” fork in the Enduro category, said Hayes, second to the Mezzer Pro. Riders of the Mezzer Expert also have the option to upgrade their existing fork to the Pro level. Both the IRT volume adjuster and MC2 damper are available for purchase in the aftermarket and can be swapped into the fork. The Expert also features Hayes’ Trail Side Relief (TSR) ports located on the back of the lower legs under the arch. TSR allows riders to “bleed” built up casting pressure while on the trail.
