The wheel size is a debate that is always in vogue but in recent times the fact that the 29 "has great advantages for XC and trail bikes while in gravity the 27,5" is becoming (perhaps) the ideal size.

Faced with this, Marzocchi worked hard on the new 350 in 650B format, a fork intended for Enduro use. This new masterpiece is inspired by the legendary Z1 and the super tested 55, in order to become a reference for riders.

Completely redesigned from top to bottom to increase rigidity and reduce weight: 1,9 kg is the achievement of the top of the range of NCR models thanks to the accurate design that has allowed to reduce weight without compromising reliability.

The 35mm stems have a special treatment called Espresso (NCR model) and the stroke varies from 140 to 160 mm thanks to the use of spacers. There are three damping technologies available, starting with the most performing NCR based on the LCR cartridge. Optimization of the return to low speeds ensuring a driving control that increases the feeling of confidence with the bike and the track.

It continues to be said that Marzocchi is returning to the glories of the past but instead in our opinion it has already arrived, it is only up to the public to start touching the products of the Bolognese house to really realize the quality of the suspensions and hydraulics. In DH the 380 is becoming a Must (with relative Moto shock absorber), let's see if even in the less gravity disciplines Marzocchi will make a comeback in the hearts of enthusiasts thanks to the 320 and the future 350.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
