Nope. My 06 drop off's were made in Taiwan. Just the high end stuff was made in Italy.

dexmaster is talking out his ass. Also being made in Tiawan has NOTHING to do with the quality of the forks. In the late 90s and early 00s a lot of Marz models had Bomber in the name. Some forks did and some didn't. Most of the nicer and/or stronger forks had Bomber in the name. Examples: Bomber Superfly, Bomber Z1, Bomber Z2, Bomber Z3-Z6, etc. It's just there now purely for nostalgia. In fact that's why I like 06' Marz stuff so much. It was the first year of RC2X and the last year to say Bomber in big letters down the side. It reminds me of my old Z3 and Z1.

hey, i just bought a used 06 (i think) marzzochi 66 (it says BOMBER in big letters on the side, so i think it's an 06? maybe 07, i really don't know) and it is set up for techy dh stuff, it's really plush and i've bottomed it out a couple times already, i'm doing more freeride and jumps kinda stuff and need it a little stiffer, how can i do that?
