Have you ever seen this Marzocchi fork (XC-PRO, 700c, 24mm)?

Hi,
I got some nice mails from a smart guy in Tokyo, Japan asking details about a Marzocchi fork and it's details.

He bought this suspension fork in 1997, specs are as following:
- This suspension fork labeled XC-PRO,but it is similar to XC-400.
- Fit 700c Wheel.
- Travel is about 25mm
- Stanchion tube dia is 24mm.
- Designed for V-brake.
- Oil and Gas Fork (Air Resilience/Oil Damping)
- Oil seal and dust seal were compatible XC-400,but some O-rings were not.
- Bike brand is VooDoo.
- the suspension fork was bought later and exchanged the rigid one.
- the suspension fork was bough new in 1997

It has a different design compared to the 26mm XCR from 1995/1996.

As we know Marzocchi build some forks for wheel sizes != 26" e.g. the XC50H.
I'm wondering if any of you guys does have any information about?

Thanks!

Re:

Update: Picture of the stanchion tube.

So my guess is: This is the same technique than XC50 / 51 (24mm) with a slightly modified design.

I was told, that in the past it has been serviced using a XC400 seal kit.

So all we have to change is the 24mm oild seal, the 24mm outer dust seal and the o-ring in the upper air cap.
As the fork is in use, we will not receive a picture from the inside parts.

Re:

Never seen these before, only RockShox' 700c Mags. First thought was whether the boss position worked with 26" wheels and U-brakes, but they look like shorter travel as well?

Look great in that bike, love the black/red tape too
