2019 Marzocchi Forks
Thu 12th Apr, 2018 @ 12:30 am
The iconic Marzocchi brand is back in a big way for the 2019 season with two new Bomber suspension fork models. These forks bring FIT GRIP damping and the FLOAT EVOL air spring to more riders through new high-value Marzocchi designs. Look out for the full test in Issue 53 of IMB.
On the trail side, the legendary Bomber Z1 is back to fit both 29/27.5+-inch and 27.5-inch wheels with travel ranging from 130mm to 170mm for the 29” model and 150mm to 180mm for the 27.5” variant.
On the pure gravity side, Bomber 58 brings FIT GRIP and EVOL to DH riders in an all new 40mm chassis. This 203mm travel fork for 27.5-inch wheels packs an the ultimate value—especially considering its World Cup proven pedigree—for park shredders and downhillers balling on a budget.
Marzocchi’s original Bomber fork was founded on the idea of providing moto-inspired suspension performance and ride quality to mountain bikers. The original fork was super plush, super durable and eschewed the ‘weight wars’ of the time.
The new Marzocchi remains true to these guiding principles. We’re not all racers and Marzocchi built these robust suspension forks for trail rides, shuttle runs, bike park laps and those gravity competitors who need performance to break through, but can’t afford to break the bank in their quest for glory.
Simply put, Marzocchi recognizes that we all need our suspension to work great lap-after-lap, day-in-day out and that many riders are willing to give up some external adjustability and accept some added weight in favor of better suspension performance, price and durability.
Look out for the full Marzocchi Bomber Z1 test in Issue 53 of IMB.
