  1. Hey

    Would anyone recommend fitting a pair of Marzocchi Junior T forks to a Kona Scab hardtail? The
    headtube is reinforced, but should I just stick with my single crown Z1 Wedge.

    Thanks.

    I do not see a reason why you can't, but why in the world would you want to put a long travel fork
    on a hardtail?

    For the same reason you put a 5" fart-pipe and an aluminium bookshelf spoiler on the back of a stock
    Honda civic. Dewd! Where _have_ you been?
