andy york Posted December 26, 2013 Posted December 26, 2013 My guess would be that the straight rate springs are a bit shorter than the progressive. It's been a few years since I had the Marz apart. There used to be 2 valves available from Ohlins. All I can find now is the 20 mm kit. I don't remember what size the assembly's are in the Marzs, but since yours are apart you can measure. I thought at one time Ohlins made a valve for your forks,but like everything else for our bikes, nobody makes much for an out of production bike. Surely there is a suspension guru down there. As much racing as goes on down there ....bound to be a bunch of folks that could help you out ....for a price of course.
PDoz Posted December 27, 2013 Author Posted December 27, 2013 Thanks andy. Greg was THE suspension guru, RIP. My no 2 option is about an hours drive away but he's VERY busy wth dirt bike work. My super itallan bike mechanic has been stolen by the oil industry on a 12 month contract. Things are looking grim....at this rate I'll go back to spinning my own spanners. It's been 7 years since I last did my own bike maintenance ( kids / sailing / riding always seems more fun) . I'm reasonaby confident I have the info I need now, so I'll get some spacers cut in the new year and try putting them together myself. All measurements will be posted here in due course . The good news is it'll keep me off the mountain roads during the silly season.....
