as per title,dont really want to shell out for 2011,and was wondering if the 2010 range are as good,as think i read some of the lowers on the 2010 have 2009 printed on them.
cheers.
I've got a set of '10 44 Micro Ti QR15's and they're excellent.
Haven't looked that closely to see what's on the lowers though
When did they switch back to open-bath damping? I know '08 was the disastrous cartridge damper year, but did they switch back straight away for 09 or was it not until 2010?
Blower: Wouldn't be worrying too much about the lowers, it was the dampers and especially the ATA travel adjusters that were the issue, I think.
they could well have 2009 on them as 2010 manufacturing will have started in 2009 & it's probably a manufacturing date for internal reference.
2010 model year prob used lowers etc made in 2009 but are identical to 2011 stuff. Have a look at windwave site, marz have a 3 yr product cycle now with the new reliable redesigned ranges launching in 2010. So if you can find a reduced 2010 go for it-I was lucky enough to get a dirt cheap 55rc3ti from wiggle, but unlucky enough to break my arm before I could fit and ride em 😯
Mates 6 week old 55s failed on him last weekend - lost rebound damping, waiting to hear from warrenty dept.
Trailseeker - what forks were they, and what year - do you happen to know?
Munqe-chick thats the forks im after too.
not liking the sound of trailseekers though!
wondering about these Marzocchi 55 RV compared to the ti version.apart from weight,still as good in relaiblilty etc?
