Date Reviewed: August 13, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | Street/Park riding | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Purchased At: | rocky cycles | | Strengths: | Strong, simple, cheap, nice fealing to them.
| | Weaknesses: | I would like better rebound, but since i have changed it i have not bottomed out, but i would still like it to be a little stiffer. no dampening, but they feel nicer than a DJ2 imo | | Similar Products Used: | DJ2, dirt jam comp | | Bike Setup: | 08 P2, mavic 729, powerbite, tenpack bb, animal grips, sixty pedals. | | Bottom Line: | These are a good fork for a budget build, they are strong, simple, only complaint is dampening and preload, but even still the preload isnt all that bad. I guess a lot of people would say there heavy, but im not a weight weenie (as you can see from my bike setup). Btw im a street/park rider | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: June 18, 2008 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Purchased At: | waterdown bike works | | Strengths: | Beefy, I couldn't break this thing if I tried, rebound seems fine, despite what others have said. | | Weaknesses: | A lil heavy, but i'm not an XC fairy so I barely notice, no 20 mil axle, but i guess for the price that's not to be expected. | | Similar Products Used: | Manitou minute, DJ comp, and ammo something or other | | Bike Setup: | 08 Kona Shred, pretty much stock with lock ons and inner bash guard | | Bottom Line: | Good fork especially for the $$, a lil heavy but that is to be expected. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: June 2, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | The streets of PD | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Purchased At: | LBS | | Strengths: | DON'T BOTTOM OUT. Ten times better than my previous forks. | | Weaknesses: | Heavier than my last forks. | | Similar Products Used: | '05 Marz Dirt Jam Pro | | Bike Setup: | '08 P.1 with tan odyssey seat and green lizard skin grips | | Bottom Line: | I love these things. Incredible compared to my dirt jams even though they had air assist and rebound adjustment. Once I break these, I'm so getting another Marz fork. All I've ridden so far is street with these and they rock. I've done six stairs with incredible comfort. They are real confidence builders for me. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$200.00 | | Purchased At: | Local bike shop | | Strengths: | beefy, pretty (especially with my black commencal maxmax!) | | Weaknesses: | no adjustments, doesent feel as smooth as many forks, slow rebound but is loveley for rolling in and out of jumps. | | Similar Products Used: | RS revolutions or whatever they are called. | | Bike Setup: | Commencal MaxMax, DJ3's, Code 5's, rest standard | | Bottom Line: | Nice forks, i only bought them because i gopt money off, i would have gone for some vanilla RLC's but that meant i would have had to wait. Still, nice starter for for me, holds up well from falls, i would reccoment it to anyone who wants forks that do the job and nothing extra, would be a good backup fork! | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: April 18, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | winsor jumps | | Duration Product Used: | Tested or demo'ed only | | Purchased At: | came with 08 norco ryde | | Strengths: | it looks ok and seems strong | | Weaknesses: | but the way it was set up disapointed me. there isn't enough adjustment so it is not stiff enough and the rebound is far too slow. i am disapointed that it doesn't have external rebound adjust as it will take me half a day or so just to adjust it to the rebound i like. but this is partly due to how the store set it up. | | Similar Products Used: | marzocchi super T rv 07, marzocchi all mountain 4 07, marzocchi z1 sport rv 07, marzocchi dropoff triples 06, marzocchi dirtjumper 3's 07. | | Bike Setup: | have two bikes and ride some of my friends bikes as well so dirtjumping and downhilling. | | Bottom Line: | i think more than anything i am displeased due to the bikestore setting it up wrong, but i would still would have liked to have been able to quickly fix there mistakes and set it up properly more quickly than to spend half a day pulling it apart to adjust the rebound etc. it's great value for the price but i beleive that it could be better. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: October 13, 2007 | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Purchased At: | Came Stock | | Strengths: | Seems strong, so far so good. Well set up, NOTHING to adjust/break. But that could also be a weakness. White (Best Bit) | | Weaknesses: | No complaints, no rebound adjust, but it's set up well stock, and I never touch it anyway. The only thing is, should I later want a harder shock, I'm stuffed, as of yet no sign of a replacement. But that doesn't bother me really. I'd sooner get a new fork anyway! | | Similar Products Used: | 07 DJ3s, 06 Dirt Jam but cannot compare as they were only on a mates bike. | | Bike Setup: | Specialized P.1 (Stock) | | Bottom Line: | Good fork, short yet nice travel. But tbh I'd rather a RS Argyle. Let's face it for what you get on Zokes these days they aren't really worth the price tag. Lets also look at last years DJ3, Air assist and rebound, setupable(?). So really this years DJ3s are more like the 06 Dirt Jam Comp, I dread to think what the DJ4s are like....
Sum it all up, good as a stock/starter fork, but not really recommended. Save up a bit and buy some RS, or see if you can still pick up an 07 DJ3 cheap. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
