i would prob get a fox fork if i had the money because they make such good stuff too. but they just got into freeride and marzocchi makes real good stuff too-plus looks cooler. i love my 66

Yeah dude they're totally worth it. Especially if you get the tubular version. They're so fast it's unreal! But now I want a set of sub 1300g everyday wheels cause it gets pretty windy out here and going deep dish in a side wind stinks.

i have an 05 p.2 and like it. ive ridden 07 p2 and there a little different. the chain stays are shorter and the fram feels a lot stiffer and easier to control. feels like a solid bike from riding it in a parking lot. id definately get it.

I ride an intense socom, and a kona howler... I also have a shadow conspiracy invisible man for djs.... I race down hill and I used to free ride a ton, but that's taking the back seat at the moment.
