Hi all, nice to meet you - I’m new here.
I’ve just completed a build of a 2000 Specialized Rockhopper FS with majority original parts - please take a look at my photos.
I managed to source a great set of 2001 coil/oil Z3.5 Marzocchi Bombers that were originally sold with the Specialized P3. They are a perfect match colour-wise and in great condition. Being a heavier rider, what options do I have to increase stiffness? I’ve set pre-load as far as it will go but they’re still a little bouncy when riding uphill. Would a heavier weight oil help?
Thanks for any input.
