RST Mozo Pro's

[simonlovell99]

I have a pair of 1997 RST Mozo Pros in the 3.5 travel version. Why do they get such bad press and no is interested in them one bit, cos I am trying to sell them. There is nothing wrong with them, they have speed spring and mcu/spring. and very capable fork that does what it should - work!

I think it was mostly brand snobbery. The reviews at the time were favourable and the build quality is good, just so hard to break the RS/Manitou stranglehold. I guess a big part of mountain biking then (as it is now) is about name and looks.

Yep great fork but bad name.

but bad name.

And Manitou didnt? They were so bad that for a while RECENTLY they had no UK distributor, or anybody prepared to take warranty work.
I ran a set of RST 461s(I think, cream with red graphics). A very good fork, as good as the more expensive INDY XC.
FWIW I still wont touch Manitou,* they dont seem to be able to replicate Northumbrian riding conditions in Wisconsin, so the seals are shite!

*I have Marzocchis that are older and better, than the current stuff they`re churning out IMnsHO

I had a set of 3.5" Mozo Pro's when they first came out & they were a very good value set of forks.

Like everyone else so far i agree that it's probably the brand name that puts people off.

If you've had no luck selling them on here then put them on Ebay, someone will want them
