Ive been looking at getting some new forks. But which ones?:?
I like the Manitou Sherman Firefly plus. Also the Marzocchi 66's.
Ive been looking at around 150mm travel.
What do you all recomend?:thumb:

just before people start recommending tom, dont let anyone tell you that longer travel forks will snap your frame.

the difference in steering responce is also negligable.

the 66's are great marzocchi's all the way!

if your going for 66s with 150mm instead of 170mm why not go for the lighter and arguably more responsive marzocchi Z150s if you can find a pair.
