Re: Marzocchi Z2 Superfly restoration???

Awwwww again.

Yep, the 950(shifter levers, brakes, hubs, front mech).
I'm searching a good 950 rear mech, until I found a good one, I will use the 739.

how about matching m950 cranks to complete the groupset? most pairs nowadays seem to have worn anodising on the legs but they are good cranks, i used to have them on my xizang. the ones with the spider i think look better though.

however i would recomend the raceface turbines more, id recomend those cranks to anybody looking for a decent 90s crankset.

I'm searching for a RacaFace, or Syncros...
The 950 XTR is looks good, but I think bit too pricey...and wear too fast, everybody say that...

Re:

Update: i wanted to know what condition the bushings are in before i take the forks apart so ive fitted them on the bike briefly with a front brake so i can test them... And... They're okay! probably the first pair of 2nd hand bombers ive bought that dont have knackered seals and/or bushings so im pleased. They're lighter than my fox forks as well and look the part....

So, we put it in.
Looks good.
But in the last 5Km, the air is gone, the fork is sit down. :S
Then I pump it again, and in the next 5Km it holds the air.
Tomorrow I will go to test the fork, in a bigger distance, with the pump in my backpack, and we will see.
But I'm not too happy.... :S

So by the end of the ride it deflates?
