I need a fork that is clyde like in build. I was looking at the 'kona hos's for inspiration and all of them seem to have ' marzocchi dirt jumpers' or marzocchi jam comps'.
My frame is a 'dmr switch back' which is a bike that you can ride aggressive xc on. My head angle is 71' and frame takes 120mm forks.
At present i have mx comp eta 85 mm. Will the 'dirt jumper' or 'dirt jams' make my bike better any better for myself to ride?
Will i be able to do xc on these forks ?
Regards

I cant comment on the dirt jumper series, but id avoid ther Dirt Jam comps that Hosses come with like the plague.
Horrible forks for XC, no small bump detection, really horrid, im in the process of replacing my Hosses Fork with a Pike, but thats an expensive way to do it.
Im also a clyde like you, id recomend a Rockshox Revelation Coil Uturn fork, dialed down to 100mm through the uturn.
If you want really big strength, get the Pike uturn but you will need a new front wheel with a 20mm hub

On a budget, check out the Tora 318 Uturn, only 120 at CRC. Steel stanchions are bomb proof, and has the motion control damper and travel change.0
