    Date Reviewed: May 20, 2008
    Duration Product Used:3 months
    Price Paid: $800.00
    Purchased At:UK
    Strengths:Light for an adjustable 130mm fork
    Weaknesses:1) With full 130mm travel this fork is stupidly flexy (I weigh 80kgs)
    2) Impossible to set up to get anything close tot he suppleness of a Fox or RS Revelation
    3) Air Pressures are hard to balance
    4) Lost TST Micros adjustment knob after 2 rides. Cost £10 to replace after 3 weeks
    Similar Products Used:Fox Talas RLCs, Rockshox Revelation U-Turn
    Bike Setup:Litespeed Niota Al,
    Bottom Line:Had this fork 3 months. Basically regrett every buying it. Paid £350 for it so wasn't too bad. Performance is NO WHERE near that of a Talas RLC or a RS Revelation.

    Its been returned twice already. You set air pressure in the bottom scgrader, then when attaching shock pump to top schrader, it shows same pressure. Cartridge for ATA simply fails !?1 Happended twice. Then it simply stopped reaching full travel on a weekend in wales.

    To be fair, Customer Serice is very good, however I think that may partly be due to the fact they realise the reliability of this fork is poor.

    Also if you are after a stiff fork, then this is bad, even worse than a Fox Talas. With the 140mm full travel it feels bendy !!

    Get a REVELATION !!!!!

    Bottom Line:this fork suppose to be at the highest level.
    it holds very well turns at good stifness. trails it takes easy. when it needs to work on bumps or stones it's not acurate. you hear noises from the fork,it becomes not so smooth and it rebounds by steps.
    marzzuchi needs to fix those problems.
