[pilktm]

hello from rainy brecon, mid wales (but great trail riding) I have just sold a gas gas 200 ec with marzocchi forks which i thought where the best forks i have ever tried,i'm off to see a 06 ec 300 with ohlins forks and was wondering if any one could tell me if these are as good as the marzocchi's, would appreciate any help...thanks.

I've had both - the 'Zokes are just as good as the Ohlins. If you close your eyes, it's hard to tell one from the other. Maintenance is the main difference. The Ohlins are a bit more work to maintain, not hideous, but a bit more work.
