Hi ive been looking everywhere to try and find out what forks i have on my bike just wondering if you could help me, the bike has different forks on now apparently, "marzocchi 888" its a kona stinky they have black lowers and black stanchions there triple clamp with a 20mm bolt through axle i found a number on the back of the clamp which looks like 7180903.

Ijust want to know;
what year
What actual make and model
And wether or not these are adjustable

Any help would be much appreciated,

Kind regards, martin.

    Most likely a Kona special.

    Look on Konas webby for the year of your bike and see what it says.

  • Ive looked on there its 2007 but the shocks it describes marzocchi drop offs look slightly different to the ones i have, the lowers on mine have 2 allen key bolts on both legs and the forks on the 2007 stinky on the kona website only has 1
    (The bolts im on about are the ones you need to loosen first before you remove the axle bolt)

    Does it have the 'M' form on the arch that would denote a Mazza fork?
