HI. Im going to buy SX 2008 frame and I'm wondering about best fork to mount on it. I have 2007 Z1 with 150 mm but this is not enough I think. 160 mm will be propably the best option. I have looked at new Marzocchi 55 line but all of them look strange to me -they do not have rebound and compression adjustments. So can You all Sx riders give me a little advice about the forks You have in Yours?Im not a hardcore rider (the Z1 is perfect for me now).

dont go with the new marzocchi's they moved thier product factoy to tiwan so they suck now, if you really want a sick fork go with a fox 36 float, talas or van its almost like they are made for that bike

Well if your actually going to listen to this guy then dont get a specialized because they are made in Tawain so they must suck. I have a 66 on my sx trail and I love it, so im gonna have to reccomend a 66.

Marzocchi has always had a factory in Taiwan, it just makes more sense financially. It doesn't make there products garbage. Their Bomber line up is made in ITALY such as the 888's, 66's and higher end forks. Every international company's bikes are made offshore dude. NORCO........Canadian company, Taiwanese factory, same with Specialized. Even Rocky's are made in Taiwan. Rocky's only claim to fame is that they are painted in Canada.

.......Agreed. 66's are awesome. I have an 05' and it is by far the best fork I have ever ridden, I wouldn't trade it for anything. Smile

It all depends on what kind of riding do you do.
My friends has SX with RS Lyrik and believe me, he's not using it for enduro.
I like 66's...I have one (2k6 170mm) in my Coiler and it works great, but if you care about weight, go with Lyrik.
I think that Travis would work cause they're a bit lower than RS and Marzocchi.

Mowisz o Koralgolu? No prawda on ma Liryka. 66 sa spoko szczegolnie te starsze z mniejszym skokiem.Myslałem o 55 Marcoka ale nie znam jeszcze opinii na ich temat.Nie jestem hardkorowym prosemSmile wiec nie potrzebuje mega widelca, jak mowilem wczesniej - gdyby Z1 mial 160mm -bralbym w ciemnoSmile No ale juz nie robia...

Got a Marzocchi 66RC2X 180MM on it its asome for freeriding /downhill.
If you're mora slopestyle rider or so i would recommend a 150mm travel fork like the 66 or a fox 36
