Marzocchi Z1 Bam
XT/XTR, SDG, Thomson, Sun Rhyno Lites, Azonic, Titec, Gore Ride-Ons
Bottom Line:Really cool little do-hickies. I got'em for my rear to stiffen up the swingarm during high braking preasure. Recently put one on the front - hope that'll improve the stiffness of the Z1. Tech note: you can cut the mounting screws shorter and use a thinner spacer to bring the booster closer to the V-Brakes as they don't need as much clearance as cantis. Bringing'em closer also increases the stifness of the booster~! Overall a nice product that performs well enough that you can forget about it. 5 Burning inner tubes~!
Overall Rating:5
