RobinJI Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Yeah, pretty much just whatever feels right. Start with 40psi as a rough guide, should be about right, but then just work either side of that till it feels good. (and yeah, you definatly can change it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmowerman Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Go to a bike shop and get them to put about 35psi in. If you look on the marzocchi website you can download the manuals for most of their forks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Just buy a pump and then pump them up! Make sure that each leg has the same pressure in though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onza Kieron Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 I agree with what has been said except the Marzocchi manual is bollocks, I have trialled it with many dh'ers with junior t's to super monsters and its crap, just do what feels right and provided they have correct oil level its all good and won't kill em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
