June 22, 201214 yr The listing says they have only been used a couple of times; if its true then it doesn't sound that bad to me, not exactly a bargain but saving a few quid might be important to the person who bought them.
June 22, 201214 yr Author True, but for them to work at their best they really would have to go a bike with similar geometry and have a rider of the same weight etc
June 22, 201214 yr Author "For auction - 1 pair of Rock Shock trials shocks. Used only a couple of times. These are 360mm long and have heavy weight springs (poss 70-80lb) however the cost of replacement springs from John Bull at Rock Shocks will be much cheaper than buying complete shocks. I have no reserve so grab a bargain " 70-80lb springs !! I'm 13 stone and use 50lbs springs on Rockshocks.
June 22, 201214 yr I agree they are of limited appeal but if the buyer; 1) Wanted or needed to save a few quid, and 2) Is a bit of a porker then he hasn't done too badly.
June 22, 201214 yr But if he's a porker and the springs suit him he's saved £25 You can buy many pies for £25.
June 22, 201214 yr Certainly makes £100 for a brand new set of Marzocchis look reasonable indeed. Wear from, I'm after some shocks
June 23, 201214 yr Wear from, I'm after some shocks If you want some decent,rebuildable shocks at a low price - call Robin at Falcon.
