I've been eyeing this on jenson for a while now.
Marzocchi 320 LCR 27.5" Fork > Components > Forks & Suspension > Forks | Jenson USA
Seems like a stupid good deal. I keep hearing mixed opinions about marzocchis though. Some consider them to be holy grail of suspensions while other call them un-reliable, under performing, etc.
I'd be running it at 120mm for aggressive XC and trail riding for a 130 pounds rider on a hardtail. I'm pretty hard on components though, but I maintain them regularly, sometimes obessesively
,so they would be loved and cuddled all day :thumbsup:
Not quite worried about warranty as long as they are reliable and durable since I'd be shipping them to my country Honduras where there are no marzocchi dealers and any kind of deal with the manufacturer or jenson would be cost prohibitive requiring me to ship the thing back and forth depending on the situation. So If it breaks, I'd be on my own with my local LBS to fix it.
Any first hand experience with them? They seem to be a bit older version (maybe thats why they are so cheap), they got the espresso coating while the actual one got black stanchions.
Gotta love the espresso color though.
