from Portland Or US Date Reviewed: June 24, 2006 Strengths: Super strong. Super durable. Super plush. Weaknesses: After three years and two different hardtail bikes riding nasty downhill and urban idiocy, the bushings are loose and the rebound cartridge has lost most of its adjustability, making it a little slow. Recently got a sucking sound from the right leg when i pull up the front fast or when it rebounds after blowing through most of the travel. This is actually a strength. Three years of stupid abuse and it is still going strong, if a little long in the tooth. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: anything you can put two wheels on Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $350.00 Similar Products Used: Z1 MCR (used and custom rebuilt by factory) Psylo. (POS) Bike Setup: Bike 1; B1 DS rig w/ race face and XT drivetrain. Butcher rims. Assorted other bike geek parts. Bike 2; 06 Azonic Steelhead. Truvative cranks and bash. Butcher rims (Still mostly straight!) Hayes mechanical discs. XT drivetrain. Thompson stem and seatpost. Other assorted geek stuff.

from Austin, TX Date Reviewed: October 29, 2003 Strengths: 30 to 32 mm tubes do make a difference in stiffness from the older forks. High speed compression damping has also improved. Older Z1 fealt harsher in this area. Otherwise a typical Marzocchi fork - plush, stiff, strong. QR 20 is pretty nice and easy to deal with when wheel removal is necessary. I think this fork also climbs better with ETA off. Weaknesses: Taller axle to crown versus the older Z1 forks. The extra inch or so compared to the '99 Z1 I used, until it was ready to kill me, has caused a lot of geomety fiddling to be necessary. There are also some tolerance issues with the top caps and damping rod circlips that cause clunking noises over small bumps (Marzocchi will give shims for this if you call them). No more V brake studs - means I had to toss my beloved Magura HS 33! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: shhhhh..... Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $400.00 Purchased At: the net Similar Products Used: 99 Z1 BAM, AMP F4 BLT (junk), Cannondale Headshok, 99 Z2 BAM. Bike Setup: Titus Quasi Moto, usual bits, Z1 FR QR 20, Marta
