well the fork is called the DJURBAN so im guessing it will be pretty good for DJ and street. The chainstay looks really short. I bet it could be manualed in circles. :drool: I love it!

I think the fork is basicly what most of the Marzocchi sponsored riders have been riding. Basicly Z1 Uppers (Or something similar, maybe AM uppers without the crown cut out..) and DJ lowers, and set at 80mm of travel...

Nicer than the current models for sure.

Wait - Is it me or does the back wheel look bigger than the front?

Correct, We got an 06 dealer book in at our shop.....the frame is based off the enduro

most of the xc and road bikes are carbon.

Big hits have dual 26" and no more single pivot frame, all big hit have 180mm rear travel except for the big hit 3 that has 209mm and also has a 888 on the front, the big hit 2 has drop off triples and the big hit 1 has (forgot the name) with 150mm single crown.

The enduros are super sick, no words can tell you how sexy they are.

They are not making P. street's any more ( i got it in the last year), the P1 chromo is unchanged, all the P's (except for the p1 chromo) come with pretty good marz fork and are speced out pretty nice

Any guestimates on the cost? I want to pick up a new bike and have been looking at several and really like the current p3 which is around $1500 or so.

Anyone sell Specialized bikes online at a good price or am I better off going to a local shop.?

They don't sell their bikes online.

nope, some guy from specialized was testing this fork out at my local trails, and it rules. Lighter then a 05 dj, and it looks just as stiff. the crown is bolt on too! it looked super nice!

sweetness, any word on an after market model?

He didn't really have too much info to give me, other then the physical aspects of the fork. In fact he didn't even mention that it would be going on the 06 P-bikes.

I hope they sell if aftermarket though, because it was really nice. As I mentioned before the crown was bolt on, but it looked thicker then previous DJ's. (it looked similar to the crown on the fox 36..... well sort of) It was real stiff laterally, and had a really nice feel when you put the front brake on, and pushed the bars down.
