i've owned probably about 10 pairs of marzocchi forks over the years...every single pair performed faultlessly.
favourite ones were:
2002 Z1 wedges, 2001 junior t, 2004 z1 drop off 2 ETA, 2007 z1 sport rv and the 2005 66rc
i stopped buying them after that as i couldnt afford to pay for any upgrades and there were too manay instances being reported of the taiwanese made marzocchi forks not being very good or reliable.
last pair of marzocchi forks i bought were the 55cr...which i still have on the old bike...again still running perfectly
was a sad day when marzocchi closed for business but its nice to see that their new owners Fox are still allowing them to trade with a new 2017 lineup
2.7kg
1kg? Is that not just a big dump, pre-ride?
Yep! I'm happy to accept the weight for the performance. Mine are the basic coil version, quite uncontrolled climbing, but for my "Alps and other holidays" bike just perfect in the lumpy stuff!
I've just lost 16kg myself, so fully aware how a little bike weight here & there makes f-all difference in the scheme of things.
