from england Date Reviewed: October 12, 2005 Strengths: Good long travel fork. well designed. Weaknesses: way too much flex. managed to snap one of the upper stanchons. these forks need a brace or something. suprisingly enough marzocchi have reduced the travel for their newer forks, probably because they know there's a problem... Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: milford Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $400.00 Purchased At: Wades Similar Products Used: marzocchi z1 drop offs. good fork with the benefit of a brace, little or no flex! Bike Setup: expensive!

from Victoria, BC Date Reviewed: December 27, 2003 Strengths: inverted design, keeps oil where the stanchions need it! Strong as hell, really plush. Weaknesses: I bought it used mind you, but the guy I bought it off said he never used it much, BUT the ecc works at only about 50% and is REALLY expensive to replace. Also, it takes for ever to get the front wheel on and off.

from SD Date Reviewed: October 24, 2003 Strengths: Suspension action is terrific. Works very very well. Weaknesses: I don't really like the axle system on this one. The end cap is made of really soft Al and stripped out on me (locking the wheel in the fork). Sometimes the fork is a bit loud (but I'm used to air forks so I think the spring is just doing its thing) Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $325.00 Similar Products Used: Old school Boxxer, 2000 Z1 Bike Setup: .243 Racing HT running 24/26 w/ a 2.7 Minion and 2.6 Gazz Jr.

from Sweden, Maine Date Reviewed: June 21, 2003 Strengths: THIS IS A KILLER FORK! IT HAS LOOKS SOOOO NICE BUT IT ALSO HAS THE PREFORMANCE TO GO ALNOG WITH IT. IT HAS THE CLASSIC BOMBER FEEL, SUPER PLUSH. IT'S DAMPENING IS PERFECT IT DOSENT HAVE THE HARSH OVER DAMPENED FEEL OF OLDER BOMBERS. THE ECC IS VERY HELPFUL AND WORKS GREAT. THE FORKS FLEX IS NOT AS MUCH OF A PROBLEM AS MOST PEOPLE MAKE IT OUT TO BE. WHEN YOU RIDE THE FORK ON THE TRAIL YOU DON'T NOTICE IT. ALSO IF YOU BUY THE FORK FROM SUPERGO OR UNIVERSAL YOU GET ONE HECK OF A DEAL. YOU CAN'T BEAT ITS LOOKS AND PREFORMANCE FOR UNDER 400$. Weaknesses: HMMMMM, THIS IS HARD. I GUESS IT COULD BE STIFFER. THERE IS FLEX, I WILL NOT LIE; BUT IT DOES NOT NEGATIVLEY AFFECT THE FORKS TRAIL PREFORMANCE. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $370.00 Purchased At: Supergo Similar Products Used: DJ'S, Z1'S, Z3'S, Z5'S, PSHYLOS, BLACKS, Bike Setup: KONA ROAST, RACE FACE CRANKS, 9.0SL, SHIVER SC.

from Illinois Date Reviewed: April 11, 2003 Strengths: Really stiff forward to back. Looks realy cool, M crown system, cnc'd uppers, 20mm axle. Really smooth once u break it in. Weaknesses: A tiny bit of tortional flex but all upside down forx do it. Call me crazy but I like the feeling of a freeride fork that doesn't ride like an xc. Besides, you can't really feel it riding.

from Manchester Date Reviewed: March 23, 2003 Strengths: Don't listen to Boxxer Boy down there, if they bottomed off a three foot drop, he must either be built like a doorman, or the forks have been set up badly.....if you find that you are bottoming them...play with the oil weight or spring weights....I have been riding Marz forks for years and they are way more reliable than Rockshox, Boxxers are a good race fork, but Marz are generally stronger and easier to tune.. Weaknesses: None, I have performed a number of drops and gaps on these forks and they are great....they track well and contrary to unpopular opinion they don't bottom off a three foot gap....look at my bike...do you think I,m ridin' XC on this thing...its like a BMX with 7" of travel and it rules...it would kill boxxers..
