P. 1 Cro-Mo or P.1 A1???
- Thread starter Bicyclist

I would go for the p1 cromo because it has a much better parts spec and the frame looks kickass too 
the cromo is alittle bit more urban and the a-1 is a little bit more dj/ offroad. i have the a-1 and i love it, it can hadle some urban as well
well if you weigh only 120...I think either one would work fine...D
Go Cro-mo it has better parts
I know a buy who has a norco with a 7inch fork and a 24 in rear wheel, it's not bad
the a-1 is around 30 lbs i dont know about the crmo. Dont worry about the 24 in the rear because this bike was made to run one.hucker13 said:
Go the Cromo, because steel is real, aluminium is just an illusion.
i disagree, because this will never rust

It does not rust because it is not real 
that would explain why i havent been riding very well lately
no because the geometry of that bike is based about the 24 in tire
So was the BigHit, but it doesn't stop the rolling resistance of the 24" being an issue... although this is a street/jump hardtail, so rolling resistance is only a very small issue.
it would just handle differently.... try it out & see how it feels, more like a bmx usually
I forget how close Ojai is the the ocean, but I wouldn't own anything steel near the coast. It'll rust like crazy near all that salt water. I just bought a P1 A1. I really like it, but it handles like a mountain bike, not super quick like a BMX. If you're looking for a big BMX go for the 24 in the back. It all comes down to your own riding preferences.
heavy and sluggish, but really strong. rides like bmx
The P. Street is a dumb bike. The fork doesn't move and the bike weighs 43 pounds. Ojai isn't near the coast, about 30 minutes driving. Steel is fine here. I think I'll get the bike, see how I like it, and maybe but a 24" on the front. I have ridden one around in a parking lot before and it felt really good. I think I'll just keep it stock.
Don't scare the lad with a non-issue. There are many, many steel hardtails to be found in coastal BC, and no one's worried here.animal 52 said:
GO with the cromo it looks sweet and should be great for urban and just a little more effort for djing but that wont kill anyone.
