Glenn,
Jeff Melik has quite a bit of time on the new 300 race wth the 48 Zokes. He says they take about 10 hours to break in. Then he told me they were the best stock fork he had ever ridden. After the rocky/rooty PA National Enduro two weekends ago, he told me that he thought the re-valved Ohlins were prolly better on the little stuff but that the Zokes had waaaay better bottoming resistance. He said he was going to have his suspension guy lighten up the initial travel for little stuff.
I got a Nambo for me and my son but we haven't even started them yet. Hopefully can ride them later this week.
Clay
