holy cow.............bottom bracket dropage!!

Looks nice though

when i dropped my P1 down to 24's last summer i still found that with my All mountains at 130mm, i could still hit the pedal on the floor at certain situations...

any longer fork and it will ride like a bag of wank,

See everyone says the bb is to low but aslong as you dont mind stop pedalling into corners its fine.

Its made a huge difference to the way it rides, its far less twitchy and feels really flicky better for spins.

I really don't need longer forks as was mentioned it is a street/ park bike the bb is a bit low but makes it so good to jump.

ALSO will probably be getting a 24" specific frame some time later in the year anyway.

your deffo gonna want a new frame pretty soon man, the geo on the p series is god awful and specialized is well known for making crap bikes. I broke 3 p2s in two months and i wasnt even going big and was maintaning them everyday.

Get a DMR revolver or Black Market frame and youll be better suited, trust me!!

DMR revolver frame ?? lol the revolver is a hub ALSO specialized are renowned for making amazing bikes... PLUS the geo on there jump bikes is good for taller people infact i prefer it to the orange hitman 26 to be honest man i've been riding jumos for 6 years and mtb for 8 i wouldn't of got / kept and done up this bike if it had bad geo and was snap happy .... YES I AM STILL LOOKING FOR A 24" FRAME have a BT raven 5.0 stock that im willing to trade for Frame, cranks, forks better than jumper 3's and some cash.

Yeah, those P1 frames do have low BB heights, even with 26" and 130mm forks.

Good choice on keeping the cable disc up front, but the whole point in that would be to run the cable through the steerer for barspins! Sort it!

I can't run it through he steerer i have an azonic headlock :$ lol. just take it off when im going parks and jumos its for street stuff note the massive rotor, its either on or off lol.
