1" steering tube shock needed

Hello folks,
I need to replace an old (1" steerer tube)Rock Shock Mag 21. Does anyone
have a suggestion for a descent replacement shock fork for my Klien Rascal?

Marzocchi 1" MX Comp

Marzocchi 1" MX Comp

Travel's much longer, will really upset the geometry of a rascal, made worse by
Marzocchi's
habit of designing for freeriders means a very tall fork to clear fatter tires.

Marzocchi 1" MX Comp

Travel's much longer,

The travel is 22mm longer and the sag on an MX comp is ~5mm greater on
an Mag 21 ... that brings you down to a total change of ~17 mm.

It will change the apparent headtube angle approximately 1 degree.

The MX comp is a XC fork ...
