I am thinking about a new dirt jumper


What do you think of this thing. Looks like a pretty good deal?! The whole bike is about $750. I need to see if the top tube is long enough for me however.

This one is great for simplicity i am wondering which would be a better value.

If it's rideable, i'm on it
Besides the P1 being a SS speed they almost look identical.I like the looks of the P2 alot.It has a good top tube angle and looks like a 8" rotoron the front and a 6" on the rear.
How do they compare in price:confused: If the same i would lean towards the P2.One of the locals here has a old P3 and man can he rip on that thing.He puts us DS guys to shame most of the time:D

Price is only $250ish different. Mechanical 6 and 8 inch disc on the P2 deraileur and bash gaurd. I would say the money is worth while... I may have to splurge and buy one :eek:

Ooh, nice :)
Have you seen the '03 range of Norco's? There's a singlespeed cromo 24" with the DJ forks and discs, and the Hun range of bikes with gears would probably compare in price to these Specialised machines.
I think whatever you go for you'll get an awesome bike that is more than capable of whatever you want to do with it (besides commuting and climbing hills :eek: )
