Ti P2 Fork

[Jones]

Anyone know when they stopped making them :?: I know you could still get them in 1999/2000 because I almost got them to put on my DeKerf when I first got it, I'm sure they were about £200 new then

I've heard that, pretty though they are, they didn't actually ride very well. Too flexy. Maybe that's why they dropped them.

Then again it might not have been economical to produce a product with such a limited market.

£200 for a titanuim fork is not too excessive .

I agree. The only big problem is to get one of these, and, even worse, get it for that amount...

 

[cchris2lou]

yes , not a lot about .

 

[scant]

didnt they make nearly £400 on ebay.com once last year?

Yes, a pair sold for about £400 earlier last year, before the £200 pair appeared - the latter had a very short steerer, hence the tame price IMHO.

the £400 US pair also had big publicity on the US forums, the UK pair went under the radar in comparison

& yes apparently they are slightly flexier compared to the normally fairly stiff steel P2s

there is a pair not 1 metre from me right at this minute!!! with a blue ano impact headset attached! mint condition!! perfect for a 19" '92 explosif.





And you can't have 'em! :twisted:

I thought they were a hella lot more than that new?

Might well have been not sure why but thats the figure I had in my head :?

Thinking about it, it probably was more as I remember being really suprised by how much they were and I don't think £200 would have suprised me with the amount I spent on that bike
