So I decided you sell my avalanche MTN-8 for something more modern and lighter
And more user friendly.
I have come to the conclusion , of boxxer World Cup 2010 or a set of 2013 marzocchi 888 RVC3 ti v.3
Or I could get some 2010 boxxer race and buy the avalanche cart

What are the pros and cons of the two?
I would like low maintanence fit and forget fork.
It was a very hard choice selling my MTN-8 but you just can get springs for my heavy body so no use really

Help is much appreciated

Basic RS with charger damper upgrade or 888. Having not ridden the charger I can't comment on the awesomeness. Low maintenance means 888 for me.

You could get an old set of 35mm boxxers and do the charger damper upgrade

Can these be bought right now? Would it out perform the avalanche cart?

I don't know sorry, but everything I've read points to them being brilliant

I have heard that the Avy is still the best, but the Charger comes closest yet.
It may now be down to which combo you can put together for the better price...

I have a 2013 888 Rc3 Evo 2 Ti or whatever alphabet soup spills onto the keyboard --
Very happy with it, but have been thinking about removing a shim or doing the 2-stage stack. I would like to remove the little bit of high-speed spiking that I can't seem to dial out. My weight is 210 and I'm riding the Firm spring.

look at 888 CR then add avy cartridge. it would be good budget.

To the OP, just out of curiosity, what frame were you running the MTN-8 on? I had one on as well, I miss that fork actually.

They were actually fitted to my dark cycles scarab but never got used since full service , revalved and extras added by Craig .
As I had an accident at work .

Ignore the mess as that is the spare room
