    i would not be increasing the axle to crown height much over the Z1´s 520mm ish

    the fork was a 130mm travel fork, which was very tall so you cna look at current fork at about 150mm

    BUT look at the axle to crown height, 520mm ish

    like i said look at the axle to crown heights.

    all the info from 2004 to now is on marz´s webby.

    i would not be going over 540mm A to C

    you do not say what year fork(s) so no comment as that are not all the same.
