Please help!

The guys in this group will all advise you to buy Marzocchi but cant really help with many tech
inquiries. I beliveve that you need to buy a new spring for the fork which may not yet be availabe
but expect to pay $50 US around.

Only because we're still riding our older marzocchi forks and have no need of major maintenance,
maybe just some new oil 😉

I couldn't find any info on the M site, but my guess is it'll be springs and maybe flipping some
spacers around... try emailing both www.marzocchi.com and www.marzocchimtb.com for better info.

Jon Bond so there!

Since it comes in 105mm I would say you can get it to that much travel. You will need new
compression and rebound springs.
