I got the used bike in Colorado Springs. It’s a Specialized P3 2008 I haven’t had a chance to ride it that much but I will soon. It is in great shape because the guys wife only rode it for one race. The cost on the site was $950 but dad always has to have a lower price so he paid $800 for it. Only problem is that it has a sticker that has “Lana” on it and it won’t come of. 😛
Here is the link to a picture.
I’ve learned in doing research on a bike you have to look at a bunch of different sites to find what you want.
There is an STP 1, 2, ss and 0. The 0 has the best parts of the three and has hydrological breaks, where the other bike just have mechanical. There is a P1, P2, P3, P2 cromo and Pgrom. The P3 has the right angles for what we will be doing. I want the P3 over the STP 0 because the P3 has better parts, fork, and rims and has a better feel. But the STP 0 is much cheaper. I rode a STP 2 and it didn’t feel as good as a P3. I would like a P3 but an upgraded STP 0 will work.
We are looking at used ones also. The P3 are $1,650 new and they can range between $500 and $1,000 used depending on the shape they’re in. $1,650 is a lot for a dirt jump bike so we are starting to look more at used STP’s. I won’t make a decision without riding the bike first. If it doesn’t feel good then I won’t want to ride it all the time.
Your probably thinking that I not a good speller. (A Part Ment Ae) We moved Friday and it is GREAT!!!!!!! Caleb and I have separate rooms so he doesn’t wake me up anymore when he snores or gets some water or comes in for bed later at night. It is so much cleaner than the other apartment and the kitchen is much bigger. But….. We can’t use the dishwasher until Monday so we have to wash the dishes by hand. No big deal. We just finished cleaning the other apartment and now this one is perfect (except the dishwasher).
I HAVE THE 100 POST ON THIS WEB SITE….. But i don’t know what to write about on it 😛 😯 😯
Were going to lubbok this friday to look at a giant STP. If I don’t like it I’ll get a P3. only 1 more
He he. I like that word “dohickies” (Doo Hick Ee’s) Anyways…. I’m doing the same thing as Caleb (Cae Lub) wrote. First I put stripped some copper wire and connected it to a 9V battery. I did that with both wires. Next, well actually first I mixed some baking soda in water. I put the wires in the water and it turned green and bubbled alot. The only wire that turned green was the wire on the positive side. Only two more posts……:)
Yes, I want to post the 100th post of this website. Only six more I think……
We went to Dallas Saturday to look at some bikes at Richardson Bike Mart. We looked at a P3 for me and if I don’t find any other good bikes than I think I’ll get a P3. We went to airsoft this Sunday and I got one person.
I want the P3 because it has single speed chain and it feels the best out of all the P series. Here are some specs…
The originator of the progressive hardtail, P. bikes are still the finest when it comes to dirt jumping, urban street and park riding. With spot-on geos, up to the minute specs and overall durability, it’s no wonder folks like Darren Berrecloth like to throw these bikes around just to see what sticks.
Since it’s thanksgiving Here are somethings I am thankful for.
Family
Gods love
food
shelter
LIFE!!!!
There are a lot more but you get the idea…..I hope. :p
I learned that is snowed in Edmonton yesterday. That is weird because it rained the same day. We will do another post soon.
Last night grandma and grandpa mailed us real iced tea. It tasted so good and I drank most of it already. JUST KIDDING!!!!!
Thank you for sending us some 🙂
