Long time no post (except for Buy & Sell)...

My new test rig will be a 05 Norco Six with the Marzocchi 66VF fork. I'm stoked because this should be a sweet rig for sure.

Anyway, I don't see a ton of specs on the 66VF--even on Marzocchi's site. Do the 66 series forks have the ETA travel adjustment? I'm guessing no, but since I haven't seen that fork, I don't know.

Any info on the 66VF would be great. Anyone ride one at Interbike?

The VF forks have the same internal technology as the jr.t, nothing more. Here's a post about the 888vf, practically the same thing:

Bummer... I thought it was high-zootier than just the Jr T internals. :(

Well, I'll just have to wait and see how it rides. Without the ETA, it may not be the best climber, but I've climbed alot with a Super T, so it may be no big deal. It all depends on the overall angles.

It should ride okay, as the bike was built around that fork... it won't climb any worse than your super-t did.

EDIT-
I was just looking at the marz site and they SAY the fork has "new" "SSVF" damping, but from what I've heard from people it's pretty much the same as the old "SSV" damping.
