I have made a mistake i know, but i have bought a norco bigfoot 07 with the marzocchi dj4 fork on it. Now AFTER buying it i have read the mbuk review that says good bike let down by a bad fork. Doh.
This fork tops out something rotten enough to knock the front end around at take off.
Is the anything i can do to stop this, besides buying a new fork? any advise would be appreciated.

    You could try lowering the rebound rate, although to be honest I dont think it will make too much of a difference on those forks.

    I used to have Marzocchi Dirt Jam Pros, which I believe are similar to DJ4s, and they were extremely bad for topping out + the rebound adjuster had little to no effect.

    I eneded up buying some DJ2s instead and they're great.
