Immediately after the official presentation in Cortina for Italian and foreign retailers, with a road test new products, leaked more news' about the precise series of Marzocchi forks and shock absorbers for the year 2008.
The news has left many disappointed with Taiwan in regard to the removal of some of the production facilities, following the example of many competitors. Marzocchi justifies this "news" by saying that the OEM production, as there was an exponential growth in demand was not met by the only Italian plants. Departments development, design and testing will remain in Italy, as the warranty service.
prices (see price down) will remain more or less unchanged from 2007 models, with some exceptions that will become more 'high. A q
ow seems Marzocchi says he focused on the 2008 production on a weight reduction of the forks, replacing heavier materials with other more 'light and still make the forks and robust performance.
classic example is' the nickel stalks, technique used on more models, especially high-end, which reduces friction by increasing the fluidity of the stems.
Specifiche delle idrauliche per il 2008
TST Micro
Evoluzione del precedente sistema TST5. Il cambiamento sta nel fatto che, al contrario del vecchio sistema a a 5 posizioni (da ritorno veloce a blocco totale), il nuovo sistema non presenta “scatti” di posizione, quindi molto piu' regolabile.
TST2
Una versione semplificata del sistema TST Micro con una regolazione meno “sensibile”
RC3
Adottata nei sistemi da Freeride e Downhil (888 e 66 per intenderci) offre regolazione del rebound e compressione ad alte e basse velocità. In particolare, sulla 888 regola anche il volume interno dell'aria, to change the progressivity of the gallows .
RV
As in previous years is the basic system for regulating the rate of return.
R
adjustment system rebound (return)
ATA ( A ir T ravel A djust)
Lowers 40mm fork through air, has a valve on top of the stroke for the regulation of positive and negative, and a second valve in the sleeve to control the progressivity and bottom out.
ATA2
simplified version of the ATA system. Always offers 40mm of travel, but has only one valve to the hardness of sinking.
SFA has the same hydraulic functions and the same version of the ATA, with the exception of stroke adjustment - a valve for the regulation of positive and negative, and a second valve to control the progressivity and bottom out.
ETA ( E xtension T ravel A djustment)
system now in use for several years that provides for the reduction of the stroke to 25mm
CV
SSFV evolution of the system for the regulation of the speed of sinking.
