Marzocchi introduces a brand new hydraulic travel adjust system 'Switch TA' on 55 and 44 mountain bike fork models. The system is directed at riders that are willing to pedal to that revered descent with a travel adjust option that does not affect the damping system. The optional travel change of 40mm (on the 55 series) or 30mm (on the 44 series), will help navigate steep climbs and technical switch backs.

With a switch of the on/off knob, you can change the parameters of your mountain biking experience.
