any dirtjumper fork blows ass.  sure it is redculously strong but weiging in at 8 lbs,  its just not worth it.

what, pike are good, the manitou isnt bad, but i dont see why the dirt jumper three is bad its actually a good fork in my opinion and he obviously a more beginner biker so i would say stick with the fork on it till you get better then switch it

i also ride a p2 and it is the best urban/dj bike i have ridden. Its relativly light, just over 50lbs and has a rock solid frame and forks. The only downside is the p2 has entry level hydrolic disk brakes but by the sounds of it they will do you just fine. If the option is there get the p2, you will not be disapointed
