Got some Atc Racing triple clamp forks on my Tandem and although they have hardly been used i'm not having much success with them. I'll stick a picture up just in case anyone has any ideas on improving them...

They keep getting sticky and then more or less seize up..anyway back on subject, I need to keep the front end down ( Cannondale MT800) so am looking at some Marzocchi Dirt Jumpers but am confused about which is the best model and from which year, 2009 DJ ones are £138 at wiggle but have read some plus and some neg reviews..
Any suggestions
Cheers

I have used DJ1s - 2002 model which are okish, now have z1 lites on it.
can't really add much to that thread.
what about some society zeno's, coil or air, 80-100mm travel, 36mm stantions, 20mm axle, pretty cheap as well
Cheers , mmm those society ones look good , wonder how they stack up on the strength front, no steel steerer though ....
i have some 20mm axle rigid forks for sale in classifieds if you have wrists of steel
crazant I seem to remember some discussion on [url= http://www.thetandemlink.com/Double_Forte.html ]Double forte[/url] about those forks and sticking.
don't worry too much about length - we run our MT 800 with 150 mm forks - its stupidly long and I cannot reach the ground from the seat but it seems to have few bad effects on handling beyond a bit of flopping at low speeds. 'cos of the longer wheelbase you don't alter the steering angle very much.
I cannot see beyond 'zocchis as they are happy to have them on tandems and you can get a reinforced steel steerer fitted to almost any 'zocchi fork
