Marzocchi Launches Limited-Edition Athlete Series Purple Suspension Ahead of Rampage
@WAKIdesigns: ... at the time. you are probably right. my 66rc 170mm are still a great fork but i am in fact riding fox 36 smashpot coils.... so i will concede that. the 66 are good but weight shed loads more than a modern fork

@IllestT: Nah they went bust when they stopped making quality stuff and had it made in the far east by the lowest bidder. most people want hrw pre 2008 quality back. i still have two sets of Mar forks from 05-06 still running. Moderate price, good performance 100% quality and reliability.
