180mm Fork options

[Pittstop]

Looking upping the fork on my one bike to a 180mm version. Currently running a Fox 36 Van R 160mm. Mainly looking at having travel adjust to help getting up the mountain. Have looked and options seem to be either the Rock Shox Totem, or Suntour Durolux. Fox is tooooo expensive and Marzocchi does not have anything in that travel.

Anyone have any experience with either of the above forks? Or should I also just be looking at getting one without any travel adjust.

Marzocchi 66 are 180mm travel. There are adjustable versions.

Yup, the Marzo 66 ATA is travel adjustable.

 

Totems are nice but pricey, may as well get a Fox 36 180mm. If you want a wallet-friendlier option then look at the Domain. I'm pretty sure there's a U-Turn version.

The 66 ATA from what I have read on the web has had reliability issues. And there are no travel adjust versions in the new range.

Domain is cheaper but quite heavy. And I seem to be finding prices for Totems cheaper than their Fox counterparts.
