100mm is fine. Will also make for a steeper head angle than longer travel forks, making for sharper steering andmore responsive suspension. Overall a nicer ride.

the older models had more travel and were flexy as hell.
marz reduced the travel to 100mm for a very good reason.
dont contradict the fork builders.
