from Smithfield, UT, USA Date Reviewed: January 14, 2011 Strengths: This looks to be a super beef fork. So big and strong. I'm super stoked about all the adjustments...mainly high speed compression, which is something I've always wanted more control over. I also like the bottom out control with the air preload. Weaknesses: Heavy for hucking...

from Yonkers, New York Date Reviewed: December 9, 2008 Strengths: Super burly and stiff with tons of plushy travel and all the adjustments you'll ever need. THE PERFECT FREERIDE FORK! Weaknesses: It can be expensive depending on where you buy it, but way worth it. No complaints with the through axle but it seems to be a common problem. If you do have any problems just send it back. Marzocchi has the best customer service out of any fork company out there.
