I remember those Z1 when they first came out ..A bit heavy @ the time but the ride quality was second to none..👍
Hell ya they go great !
Evaporust trick for the steerer: soak a paper towel in Evaporust and wrap it around the steerer, then wrap again in clingfilm.
dang! that works? gotta try that one thank you !
Outstanding job on the forks Gary, they look sick on your bike too
Cheers my dude ! Ya super stoked with how they turned out , thank you 🙏
The slow-mo jumps at the end are the best dude 🙌 the bike looks sick
Hahha thank you Jon ! Got at least 1ft of air I think 😆😆 cheers mate stoked on the bike & fork , can’t wait to ride it more !! 🙏
Nice rescue Gary! Clean.
Ay thank you mate, stoked !
Way to go! Silky smooth.
Cheers my dude !! They ride well
Nice fork rebuild!!! Love those old marzocchi forks... That red and the one with removable arch. 😎👍👍👍 I still regret that i sold my old Marzocchi Z3 Bomber... Nice vid! 👍🚴
Thank you mate!! Ya I love old marzocchis, great forks and easy to service. Hopefully you can find another cheers !
@@garysprojects hopefully, but here in our place its very rare... Most forks here are cheap chinese forks... 😅 Still have my old Marzocchi Drop off dual crown... Still in good shape...
@@garysprojectsnice to see that Kona still shreds on 24. 😎🔥🚴🚴🚴
Damn drop off dual crowns are sick!! Haha ya 24s squirly but fun, maybe try mullet setup soon
@steelisreal4313 damn hopefully another comes up !
truly inspiring
Cheers mate more vids soon!
Nice fork and quality refurb mate. Psyched!!
P.S. when ep. 11 of bike talk coming out. I keep checking to see one particular name in the description list each time you drop each ep.…
I wanna see ‘James’!!!😉
Keep up the good work my bro🤙✨
Cheers mate psyched indeed!!
hahah I will try to do one today, my computer died this week , getting back on track now
Nice forks sounds better I love old Kona nicerthan the new bike love the channel dude
Cheers mate , they work well ! Stoked on them. Cheers mate enjoy the Kona !
These old coil forks seem a lot simpler to service than I thought. Fork looks nice!
Also where’s your helmet during that “fall” at the end? 😂
@@floris2872 ya they made them pretty great ! easy to service. left it at home with my gloves , knee pads and my lifevest 😂
Yewwwwwwwww Darren’s loose unit! 😅
Darren’s the man , also used your crown install tool (again)!! Cheers mate !
Looks great, Gary! I think you've lost the left leg adjuster cap during your test ride. Did you just google the service manual? I've got a set of old marzocchi forks that could do with a full service...
Cheers mate ! Dude great eye ! I actually did lose it. I crashed into a bush off camera with lots of twigs so I think that done it. Luckily for me I had one spare in my bits box !!! All replaced now so hopefully I don’t lose anymore in the future haha. Ya I just googled the service manual , wasn’t too hard to find. Ya you should do it up, the instructions marzocchis give are pretty clear 👍
@@garysprojects nice bit of luck there to have a spare cap! Thanks man, I know what to do on the next rainy day 😊
Rad recovery
thx got lucky I think haha
marzocchi bomber i wont ride any other for
marzocchi is the best !
Some guy dropped off a Trek singletrack for a tune up, pretty good condition, dont think the guys brother ever rode it. Chain was original and not even .5% worn. Hubs, bb, headset were all great. Cables and housings need a replacement for sure 😂
Haha nice , easy to service I guess
Very nice work! What dimensions are the Maxxis tires?
Cheers mate it’s 2.3x 24” minion dhr 2 on the back and & 2.4x 24” minion dhf on the front
nice ;-)
@@JoesBikesUK thank you Joe !
@@garysprojects My Pleasure dude, loving your work 😃
@@JoesBikesUK Cheers mate! 😁
2002 Mayonnaise Bombers
my fav song
@@garysprojects very musical. More fork videos!! Fox air chamber mods next
2002 is vintage? I have a 1995 and I don't consider it vintage!
Vintage is considered 20 to 100 years old according to google but ya you can call it whatever you want , just had to give it a title so was close enough👍
