from Hayden, ID Date Reviewed: May 12, 2007 Strengths: Excellent adjustment range: rebound, compression, negative air, TST travel, ETA. 20mm through-axle is incredibly stiff. Progressive travel without spiking feel. Ability to dial out brake dive. Very little stiction. Weaknesses: Marzocchi manual documentation on recommended air pressures. Forget the manual, just set the pressure based on 30% sag. The little schrader valve adapter is kinda silly. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $300.00 Purchased At: private sale Similar Products Used: Marzocchi MX Comp ETA, Fox Float F100R, Rock Shox Revelation, Manitou Minute 1:00.
