I've had some Marzocchi MX Comps on my Giant XTC 3 for a year and a half.

Today, I had an off and it completely snapped the steering post. It wasn't that big an impact.

Does anyone know what kind of warranty these forks come with?

I'm a bit hacked off to be honest, is it repairable?

Thanks.

    well it all depends on why it snapped and the only place that can tell you that is the place that supplied the bike or the fork.

    if not original to the bike then they will have to go to the Fork distributors for inspection etc... you do still have the recipt? or you registered the fork number with Marzocchi?

    Yes, I still have the proof of purchase.

    I will call them tomorrow.
  • I'd carefully check your frame around the headtube for damage aswell.
