DO I need a shock pump, or can I use a track pump for it?
And it so, do I need any sort of adapter?
Cheers

  • Use a fork pump. track pumps are high volume pumps. you would find it difficult to get the right pressure. and more than likely will pump it up too much. which isnt going to do it any favors.

    Ok, cheers for clearing that up for me

    Any suggestions?
  • The marzocchi low pressure pump is the obvious answer. but you can get the same thing under different branding for half the price on ebay. my pump is identical in every way to the marzocchi (except the branding obviously) but i only paid £15 for it. as opposed to the £28.99 from crc for the zocchi version.

    All depends on how much of a brand whore you are :wink:

    Rubber, what brand is your pump? So I can look for the same type on eBay.

    £28 for the Marz one is a rip-off!

    Cheers,

    Not much of a brand whore when it comes to tools, so it not being zocchi doesn;t bother me
    Seeings as Citizen is watching that one you suggested, I'll steer clear of it and keep an eye out for another one

    i got a marzocchi shock pump off a friend for £15, i don't think he even used it.

    are the fork pressures normally around35 - 65 psi or 0 - 15psi?
