Get a STP2 or if u can sqeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze a few extra bux, go get ur self a STP1, better value.. only porblem with STP2 is that fork is pretty shit... i guess u COULD live with it.. i got a STP2 and loving it, upgraded most of it.. go SS but thats a personal preference, other wise STP2s rock, go get one.

cheers Monkey! :D

Davey, some advice. Don't post rubbish, learn to spell (or at least take the TIME to spell if you already can).

You may also wish to go to the trading areas of this site and actually READ what it says about gaining trading access. Because you DON'T need 10 posts to get it but there ARE other requirements and to this point you aren't looking good for meeting them.

davey i would wait for 06 range to come out i have heard some good things that will be around your price range. but if u cant wait that long get a second hand bike from the forum.

jay is selling his P1, perfect for what you say u wanna ride, he takes great care of it and its only a grand. best deal around at the moment(i think its still for sale) but yeah STP's seem worth it, but the stp2 sux, stp1 i wouldnt waste a cent on even the zero sux. (i h8 giants :D )

Just because you dont like giants, doesn' mean you have to tell some one they are crap. I ride a stp2, upgraded everything except brakes and frame..best bike for urban and dirtjumps.. it has perfect geometry. I reccomend it Davey, and for people who say STP's are crap, justify ur reasons, don't just say 'coz i hate em' '

cheers Nick

You are a fucking idiot, help the kid out. I was in your situation a while ago, go second hand, its cheaper and you can pick up a better buy. _J_'s bike is nice, i recommend that, great rider, nice kid that looks after his bikes.

alright, i agree that j's p1 is a sick ride. BUT, it doesnt have a fronk brake, i don't know why but i just think i would need to have a feel of it first

hey i'm upgrading and selling off my Haro 8.3 asap, '05 model, manitou stance 120-150mm with 20mm axle, all top of the line running gear, only want $1500 and it's very negotiable! if u (or anyone) want any details at all let me know! awesome bike, light and strong, very easy bike to feel confident on! but i feel the need for a bit of bounce in the back end so i'm selling to get a duallie.
