I have a Cannondale Jekyll with a Lefty DLR as a front fork. I purchased a 2003 Marzocchi Marathon S for my hardtail. However the fork is brand new and I am having second thoughs about putting it on my old hardtail. The Lefty always had a harsh feel so I was thinking about putting the Marathon S on my Jekyll. What I am asking is this would be an upgrade or a downgrade. I want to get a comparasion on the two forks before I make a decision. I heard great things about this Marzocchi fork and I like the features it has but at the same time the Lefty has amazing steering but is harsh as hell. I ride very rocky trails with many roots and large climbs and moderately techincal downhills. Occansionlly I do hit a 2or 3 foot drop but it is rare. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!!
