  1. I have a 1997 Marzocchi Z2 Bomber fork that needs seals (the left is leaking
    from the top). Anyone have a set of seals they'd like to sell or care to
    point me to anyone who does?

    Thanks,

    Your LBS probably deals with Norco, who distribute parts for Marzocchi in
    Canada. The seals are listed in their cataolgue as part 229715-12 for the
    30mm diameter, which I think is the correct diameter. You should probably
    also do the bushings as well for another $40 in parts. Don't forget to order
    new oil as well.

    Contact me off-list if your LBS isn't working for you and I can order and
    ship to you.

    Good luck,

    Another very good alternative is Enduro seals, which many riders swear
    by. I bought my set from the Angry Asian, James Huang (angryasian.com),
    but if he doesn't have any, this site does:

    $20 for wipers and seals, can't beat it, and the set I have work great.

    I should add that I don't put a huge amount of mileage on my mountain
    bike. I've ridden it hard, but not frequently.

    Two great sites, lotsa manuals/info for download, too!

    I'd forgotten about the Enduro option--too bad they don't have lower-cost
    bushings as well. The Marzocchi bushings seem quite expensive for a simple
    metal sleeve with a lip, but I don't see anybody else producing them for
    less.
