Been out this weekend for the first off road ride in the Peak for almost a year.
However, my forks are getting on a bit (they are Marzocchi Marathon SL 2002s) and are feeling a bit overpowered as my riding partner is generally now into more hard core blasting down stuff than previously (he rides a Pace RC305 or seomthing like that). This doesn't match well with me being well out of practice and having a weedy xc bike with light flexy forks!
So musing vaguely about getting some new forks as and when.
What would people recommend for a 100mm, non flexy, solid, confident, fit and forget fork for £250 or below? A mad variety of adjustment is unnecessary/undesirable although a lockdown might be nice.
I had thought Magura as they seem to do a range of 100m forks with the insane double arch thing for stiffness but some comments reckon they are quite stiff and I weigh only 65kg.
