If I were you I would stick with dual 26. I have a 2007 P1 and with 26 the BB is very low. With the slightest turn while pedaling I will nick the ground with my pedals.

i have a P2 and agree with the other guys about sticking with 26's. The P's have amazing geometry but they just arent made for 24s. sick set up though

Hmmm. I'd have to say the Manitou on this one, but they're both really great forks, from what I've heard.

P's have terrible geometry. What are you talking about, have you ever ridden a hardtale other then a P bike. The difference is great. I have a P2 right now, and am getting a new frame.
