okay, so they straightened that tube out. so what? they're not going to mess with the geo, they have to keep it consistent with the aluminum p's too..

I own a 08 P.1 CrMo, exactly the same as the P.2 CrMo but single speed. With my rear tyre at 70psi and the front at 60 it rides smoother than anything on trails. Once in the air it laps it up, smack it like a bitch, teach it whos boss and you'll love it.

However, the forks are sub-standard. Seems like the DJ3s get worse every year! There is certainly flex in the rims. The Avid BB3s are good, but they experience fade.

Still, reccomended for the price! I love it!

i own a '07 p2 crmo and its sick. it has a nice geo, i am 1.84m and its perfect. i have shorter friends and they also fit perfectly.
fork is quite heavy, but works very well, its pretty adjustable. rims arent super strong but that doesnt matter. overall its not to heavy, it flies like a dream. get one!!Beer Attention Salute

rims are horrible. i only weigh 125 and i've made the rear extremely wobbly in 2 days. i'm gonna get the p.disc hubs (i enjoy the red) relaced to white mtxes when they are available, with black spokes. can't wait!

Does anybody have a spec. on how much the P2 croma actually weighs?? people are saying it's a boat anchor but how much does it actually weigh?

Also, compare the P2 cromo and the Giant STP..what do you think? Uses are going to be riding to class on a college campus, some jumps and urban freeride and a little more trials. Pro's and cons..thanks!!
