Bomb-proof. Last forever. I have 3 pairs of Marzocchis ('98 Z2 BAM, 2001 Z3 QR 20, and 2003 Z1 FR QR20pro). I don't use the Z3s, but they are good forks. The Z2s are still in operation. I service them once a year (change seals/oil) and they work as well now on my hardtail as they ever have. Marzocchi makes great forks and stands behind them for sure. Ride well.

I have bought that fork for 160 euro. Is that much? I am from Poland, and I don't know how much cost that fork in USA. Please tell me...

Brand new they range from $400+ to $560. You can find them used (in good shape) say a 2000 model for $150-300 depending on all sorts of things. I have seen 1999 Z1s sell for $100 and be good as new with an oil and seal change and thourough service (which anyone with basic tool abilities can do). I don't know the exact exchange rate for the dollar to euro, but I think you did just fine (assuming the fork is in good repair). Have fun riding it!

euro = 4,4 zl (polish currency)
dollar = 3,8 zl

The fork is almost new. (200 km route)
