Marzocchi 350CR? They are 140mm or 160mm. Easy to drop the travel apparently and will be a burlier fork...

I have ordered some 350 CR not sure how good they will be but I expect plush and stiff. If you want something stiffer than revs but not breaking the bank then sweeps would be a good bet. If you buy them from j tech they will tune them for free and I imagine drop them to 140.

I have a pair of 350CRs. 2 observations:

1 - Mine are currently with TF Tuned to have the travel dropped. It may or may not be easy to do, but there are absolutely no instructions on Marzocchi's website on how to do it. I am a massive coward, but instructions on doing this job aren't readily available, so don't buy it as a 140mm fork unless you're confident of doing that sort of thing.

2 - the stanchions are almost blindingly orange. It's remarkable.

fr0sty125 - not at all, waiting on a new frame. I took them out of the box, marvelled at how orange they are, boggled at the lack of info on changing travel and sent them away to have it changed.
