[QUOTE="mop, post: 881104, member: 40662"] Robin13: The handling "weirdness" I was talking about was from experience I've had in the past when one side oil seal blew a great deal of oil out of the leg, and also another time when the spring in one leg actually broke. It was hard to put my finger on exactly what it was, but it was something noticeable especially when braking hard. These situations as well as the subtank project we are discussing are "SPRING ELEMENT" related. The Marzocchi REBOUND/COMPRESSION separate leg set up is "DAMPING ELEMENT" related. Personally, I never tested the Marz. fork with this system, so I cannot comment on it, but I would think it would be weird too, but they had success with it, so maybe I'm talking out of my ass(?). The oil level in the FORK is important for what happens then the fork compresses quickly, whether it will feel like a high oil level or not. The volume of the secondary chamber (in this case, the handlebar) is important for what happens when the fork is compressing slowly, how soft it feels like a low oil level. So if the oil level is set pretty high, it will feel ALOT stiffer in one leg when the fork is compressed quickly, and that is the situation where the "weirdness" MAY happen. That is just my opinion, cuz I've never tried this, so I'd like to know how it goes. [/QUOTE]
