It was a hard choice to be honest, but for the price these are going for at the moment, they were hard to ignore.

Nice fork. I got a colour matched graphics kit for my 350 from Slik Graphics. Only cost about £15 and looked great.

I might have a look at some graphics for them. I had a browse at the Pike ones before I decided on the Marz.

Went out on the new fork today. Very muddy, but this fork is brilliant. I can't even feel small rocks and bumps anymore!

Only thing that is bothering me, is that it feels a bit sticky. There's quite a bit of stiction. when I lean on it, the travel is quite jerky, but can't feel it when riding.

Goes in a few rides... But its all about how it works sitting in its travel and my 380rc is amazing too..

John Wh

Ah good, puts my mind at ease. The 380 seems like great value. If I ever get a DH bike....

Im not so sure after seeing the massive crack in the lowers of my mates 380 this weekend. He thought it was flexing a bit and not turning in properly.

John Wh

Oh dear

Hope it's just a freak incident.

To be honest I don't think under rotating a flip helped. Doing it a second time may not have helped as well. Landed it perfect third time though.

John Wh

Well, at least he didn't give up!

Thewaylander

yeah smashing in from a flip might just about do that...

John Wh

Just a little update on added crimbo prezzies

Wife bought me a Renthal Fat Bar Carbon, Easton grips and an Apex stem. Funny thing is I bought her the Lite version of the same bar as a surprise too!







I'll get some better pics soon, promise

John Wh

A few pics while out today, just to prove it does go outside

Couple of the Wife's Cube too.
