Supergo. Couldn't pass up the low price for a new long travel cross country
fork. Any comments ?
It was selling for that price for a reason.
#1.) The Black has turned out to be such a wonderful fork that a
certain bike manufacturer is sending out Marzocchi Z1-FR's, for free,
to replace the Blacks that were installed by the factory.
#2.) I personally witnessed the line of less than happy Black owners
waiting for rebuilds at the Manitou tech truck, at last year's Pedros
fest.
You bought a $219 fork. If it works out for you, great! If your
Black turns out like so many others, at least you only paid $219 for
it.
