Thread: FS: Marzocchi 66 RC3, new 2010 internals & lowers

Marz 66 RC3

- just back from warranty with brand new 2010 RC3 internals and fresh lowers
- nickel coated stachions, very clean
- 7 3/8" steerer
- 1 1/8" diameter

$400 obo

I had a brand new 2010 66 RC3 Ti that I got under warranty because my other POS 2010 creaked, leaked, and stuck. Three weeks on Ebay at $500 and not one bidder, ended up selling it to someone local for $500.

I figured, but thought I'd at least try.

Price adjusted.

Still for sale????

(edit- its vicious' its just in my basement, boxed and ready to go)

this would be perfect on my sx trail but I don't know how much steerer I need.

It should be plenty to fit on a majority of bikes.

Take a look and lemme know.

someone should probably buy this.

what size steerer tube? looks like 1 and 1/8?

I should just buy this on principle.

this fork is sick. it feels awesome, all 08 type issues are totally sorted.

it is a 1 1/8'' BTW

Don't want to hijack, but...

I don't see an axle in the pics...I have a spare leftover from Marz warranty BS that I would be willing to send out for cheap.

And bump because I have basically the same fork ('08 warrantied to '10 RC3 specs.) Almost sold it when I got it back just cause I was pissed at Marz, but decided to just keep it and ride it like I stole it. Completely happy with it, so smooth once broken in a little.

really interested in this to replace my 66 rc2x pending some intel from a shop or someone here.

I really need to replace the bushings in my current fork. The compression adjustment knob on the bottom of the fork broke off, such that the bolt holding the knob sheered practically flush with the nut. I've been able to replace the fork fluid by just draining it out of the top, but I have not been able to free the compression cartridge from the fork. Am I SOL? The fork was bought used with a bike, I have put close to 250 miles on it in the last few months, and it still works well, but I fear that if I ever get it open, the lower part of the uppers will be worn to shit since I doubt it was ever serviced by its previous owner. The other issue that worries me some is a small crack in the base of the arch on one side of the fork. It is only ~5mm long, and has not grown at all over the course of this summer. I check it before every ride. It is very disconcerting but the fact that it has not grown at all does reassure a small bit

I like the serviceability of marzocchi so I'd like to stick with them, and I bet this fork is as buttery as the next, but I'm a college kid strapped for cash. I figure there is a month or so more of use before the Bellingham rainy season has turned to a shroud of white gold in the hills. The local plasma bank has a $75 two donation special going on, and I'm sure I could find some other ways to help pay for this. Is there any way we could work out a deal?

any interest in a partial trade for 188 Stockli SS stormriders? minty minty

I really should but I also really shouldn't. Current fork is 1.5 and I don't have a reducer headset = ~$100. School shop doesn't have the equipment to do change headsets = ~$50 from a real shop. anyway you/vicious could do 300 and ship?

Have an axle and brake hose grabber?

it does, yes.

hitmanbob- i have never heard of a shop charging more than $15 for a headset swap.
