its a great fork for the money but lacks adjustability and its way to heavy, it also is not the same amount of rebound all the way throught, at the start of the travel theres none then about and inch and a half down theres lots, but it is a decent dirt jumping and street fork because of its sheer strength.

Bottom Line:
If you don´t crash with your bike the fork lasts very long. i guess that the mangesium legs are not that resistant agaist crashs like the old forks but if you don´t crash the fork is exactly doing what it has do do. buy it and go hardcore riding (by the way i do not work for marzocchi) :) cheers

Very very strong. I've put over 10 feet drops almost DAILY, and it haven't broke or anything. Much more better than the III. And it was not that expensive.

Strengths:
strong. Cheep for wot u get.
Weaknesses:
nothing. Sometimes the colour but it goes with my bike and the INTERNAL rebound
Bottom Line:
very good pair of forks. Really good for the monney and external air load. Very good for dj( in the name) it gives you extra lift at the lip of the ramp and send you sky high. Great landing if you have them pumped up right. Takes all the impact
