![]() ![]() ![]() I'm about 78kg and quite hard on forks usually, my xc race bike is set up for an 85kg rider on both ends and I acheive full travel on that several times down the same tracks. Now the rebound is a little better, but I'm still not getting anywhere near full travel (90mm tops). I then stripped the forks completely and adjusted the damper holes to half open/closed and changed the oil to a 50:50 mix of 2.5wt and 5wt, again with 140cc in each leg. Initially they were too stiff and over damped on the rebound which caused them to chatter/pack down mid-travel, so I changed the fork springs to medium (white-genuine Marzocchi), this didn't seem to help much, I then changed the oil to 5wt (140cc each leg), again still too stiff and rebound too slow. The steering is fine with these forks, however I can't get them set up right. I'm currently running a set of old Jnr Ts on my San Andreas DHS as the more modern 180mm+ dh forks I'd previously tried on it messed up the handling. ![]()
