2 TECHNICAL INFORMATION
2.1 Fork’s external components
The MY 2004 MARZOCCHI BOMBER forks
range includes many different models, having
from 30 to 40 mm legs diameter and travels up
to 300 mm. Apart from a few exceptions, the MY
2004 MARZOCCHI BOMBER forks range
consists of two main assemblies:
• the stanchion tubes / steering crown
assembly (which are assembled through a
cryogenic process called “cryofit” for a stiff
and undetachable fit).
• the magnesium-casted sliders/arch monolith
assembly.
The materials used for the main components are
the BAM® aluminium from the aerospace
industry and the magnesium; these are
lightweight materials that help reduce the fork’s
weight.
2.1.1 Fender
MARZOCCHI offers an optional integrated
fender for all models with ø32mm legs and for
the new forks of the 888 series.
The fender mounted to the underside of the
crown helps protecting the rider against debris
from the front tire.
2.1.2 Legs protections
They are made of plastic material and are
current equipment on the upside-down models
(Shiver SC and Shiver DC); they allow legs
protection from mud and dust that can be raised
by the front wheel during use; they also assure
the legs integrity from hits.
