Hi all
my parents agreed to get me some new parts to make my P.2 ride a little better. they gave me a budget of 200 bucks and I want to use al little mones as possible.
my P.2 is completly stock. the tire in the back is completly bald, ecept for the side nobs. and my brake rub right now is so bad that if you spin the rear wheel it doesnt even complete one rotation. But you can also pick up a Marzocchi DJ III for cheap too, but the EXR on my P.2 is working so it would hold up to more abuse till I get my new toy.
so I was looking around www.jensonusa.com and I found that I could buy a rotor and pads for my MX2 mechanicals....that would equal 39 dollars (for rear only) but they also have an "OE" Mx2 complete brake system, comes with caliper, pads and a 8" rotor, I would have to get an adapter for the back too ...that is 7 bucks. so total comes to 41 dollars.
should I run a 6" in the back, or an 8" ? consider i'm going to also have my 8" up front too and my riding would be enduro/trail
so, brakes + a tire ..or fork ?
