Crankbrothers Stamp Pedals - Review
I has a pair of candys on an XC bike a few years ago, after a few months they wore out, I sent them back and they were repaired and returned, all good I thought. I decided to put them on a hybrid for road riding, after about ten rides I rode down a small valley and tried to power up the other side to keep my momentum up that's when the axle snapped and I hit the floor at about 25mph. No more crank bros for me.

Marzocchi 888 RC3 EVO
$200 GBPI've lowered the price to be a bit more realistic.
Hi, I'm selling my excellent condition 888 RC3 EVO's, or Swap for Boxxer R2C2 or World Cup in good condition, as can be seen in the photo's they're in excellent condition. no scratches or marks to the stantions. Lowers helli taped from new so no scratches, a couple of very small paint chips near axle clamp bolts, and some slight rub marks on the arch from a neoprene mudgaurd.
Recently serviced and at the same time the air volume adjuster was removed to improve damping consistency (Marzocchi dont use the air volume adjust feature anymore on newer forks) the air volume adjuster will come with the fork if you want to re-fit it. The compression adjust has also had a screw fitted to lock the adjuster in place, you slacken the screw adjust the compression damping and tighten the screw to lock it, so it can't self adjust when ridding.
The forks will come with firm and extra firm springs, (Marzocchi forks are sprung soft so feel like med and firm)
They will also come with an Sunline direct mount stem.
steerer is 1"1/8 and uncut at 195mm long.
Always used Marzocchi 888'S and 66's because they're strong plush and don't need servicing every few weeks, but my new enduro bike came with Pike's and I like them, so would like to try some boxxers.
On ebay 0.99p no reserve www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Marzocchi-888-Rc3-Evo-2011-/221962648027?hash=item33ae0139db:g:scIAAOSw8-tWZgcU
Thanks,
Mark

First Look: Crankbrothers Stamp Flat Pedals - Eurobike 2015
They're the only pedals I've ever broke, I was worried about them so I used them on a road bike and snapped one clean off peddling hard out of the saddle up a very short climb at about 20mph, didn't half hit the floor
