Asking the locals first just in case anyone has something I don't have to deal with shipping and waiting a few days..

Anything in good condition, low travel, QR preferred but it really doesn't matter and STRONG...The DJ series is what im probably looking to get but if you have anything else let me know asap!

The reason why I need something quick...

i may have something. it's an old marchocchi fork that came with my '01 P3. i can't remember what kind it is, but i believe it's got 100mm of travel. i'll take some pics and post them tomorrow.

I was just streetin it up around town and noticed something wasn't right, someone spotted out the crack and to home I went. These forks are pure ****, my friend who pointed it out to me broke his ex-r pro in the same spot like 2 months ago!

Yea that sounds like it sucks. It would be nice if Specialized put at least a Stance Static on the P.1 A1, something that could take that abuse...without raising the price would be nice too.

Hey man,
I'm not sure if you want to deal with me, but I have an '03 DJ2 in awesome shape. It's been reduced to like 80mm, but it's not a permanent reduction. It's easy to change back, and no extra parts are neccessary. Hit me up if interested

I highly recommend the Fox Talas RLC fork. You can dial it from about 85mm to 130mm and it feels just as good at both settings and everything in between.

thats way out of my price range, I really don't care about the "feel" or the adjustablity of suspension for street, the stiffer the better.

hey man, if you are interested... i have the original fork that came with my old P3 . i believe it's a 100mm coil 2001 marzocchi z-3. i just had it overhauled recently before i bought the DJ1 that i ride from mpd510 and it's just been collecting dust (as a spare) in my apartment. it's scratched up like mad, but fully functional and ready to ride.

cut down to 7-3/4".



PM me... i'll sell it cheap!
