 Straight from one of the head guys at Marzocchi USA, "The shiver IS coming back" Its only on paper as of right now, but with the inverted fox showing up at the US open, it will be put in overdrive.

But the small bump compliance on the 888 I tried, just blew my mind, twice as good as my Boxxer WC.

 I always look forward to dave at the world cups. He was also a great help to a teammate at windham with his great knowledge. I wish we got more of these kind of videos from other team mechanics too. So insightful!

 I know they are pro but seriously bad practice to Jet wash DH bike bye bye bearing grease.

 Know what you are saying but that bike comes apart and gets freshly built with grease pretty often. For most folks id say that power washing their bike is not the best thing to do - but so long as you know what you are doing and don't point the nozzle directly into the bearings Its a pretty effective method for stripping nasty sticky mud from your bike.

 What do you think he's gonna do when the bike is clean? He's the mecanic! They probably wash the bike then clean it piece by piece then regrease it...

 I doubt it's a Jet wash, probably one of the bike specific ones.

 The more 'pro' the mechanic, the more likely they are to jet wash their bikes.

 If you race in europe then you will jetwash your bike at races. If you own a van and have space for a washer then the chances are you'll also have a pressure washer tucked away in the back...it's not ideal but it's necessary.

 There's nothing wrong with jet washing your bikes unless you're an idiot and hold it in one place, they clean bikes 10 times better than the average garden hose
