i meant,that will it be good for my frame:P:P because mine kona looks like stinky,but it's garbanzo so it has got geometry for longer forks.
you know,like marzocchi on their website(polish website,i don't know how is on other country sites of marzocchi) has got something,like you wants to know about the fork,you choose year of model you want to know about,then you've got all models,and you've got a weight,how long is that etc.etc.
i hope that you understand me,hahaha

yeah it will be fine for your frame. theyre 203mm travel, but i dont know the exact axle to crown length

i love the color of the frame,and the boxxers look nice with it

rolto1822 (Apr 13, 2009 at 9:40)

thanks yeah thats what i thought! The silver looks way better than boxxers in black would!

ilikeicecream (Apr 13, 2009 at 10:04)

its mostly the gold stanchions cuz blue and gold looks hott together

the black with red stickers booxers are pretty cool too you know,all the boxxers r good

rolto1822 (Apr 13, 2009 at 14:29)

true

boxxers are amazing!

i do like the black ones with red stickers but again, i dont think it would suit the bike as much!

ilikeicecream (Apr 13, 2009 at 14:45)

i sure it will still look nice

ilikeicecream (Apr 13, 2009 at 14:48)

only thing not as good for the boxxers are how thin the stanchions are,888's have thicker stanchions

rolto1822 (Apr 13, 2009 at 16:29)

true but to be honest how common is it that you see snapped stanchions? I've never seen it and maybe i wasn't looking hard enough but they are not the weak point in forks. Look at fox 40s, they have huge stanchions, but the arches keep snapping (this is actually a recognised common problem with 40's)
if you want thick stanchions go for the 2010 boxxers

ilikeicecream (Apr 13, 2009 at 19:37)

yea i know,but thicker looks beefier too

rolto1822 (Apr 14, 2009 at 2:31)

i suppose (but hey, fox 40s are no competition for boxxers in their looks

)

looks good

i'm going to buy new fork,and i'm thinking about boxxer's. is boxxer high?

rolto1822 (Dec 13, 2009 at 8:52)

thanks

yeah i just put some new saint cranks on it today

when you say high, what do you mean? like expensive or like too long for the frame?
