Marzocchi XC-700 for Zaskar?

[Angyalpor]

Hi!

Any suggestions? My frame is from 1996, just like the fork.
Mostly I plan to use it for touring, 80% road, 20% off-road.
What do You think?

Re:

I think.... Yes.


But for 80% road are you sure you don't want a rigid fork?

This is Hungary, road means half-off-road.

That is true!

So. Will be a 1996 Zaskar with a 1996 XC-700 Fork. See You on the road, brotha'

I need a few missing parts...
But within weeks I can go.

So, should I buy it?

My frame next to my Bianchi...

Re:

I personally think they look badly out of place on that frame. Looks like you dont need a cantilever compatible fork so why not get a newer better fork?
