P.3 & GEAX SAGUAROS FOR EVERYTHING?


Lee,

In addition to its native purpose, I’m going to be using my new P.3 as a trail single speed. I’m thinking different tires, easier gearing (1.8-ish:1), and a Maverick speedball will make this a very versatile machine.

Are you still digging the Geax Saguaros as an all-around choice on your P.3?

Thanks,

Bracken

PS - Congrats on the twins!







Hey Bracken,

A P.bike is a great choice for an all-around steed. The Speedball will make it kick even more on-the-fly ass.

I ran the White Collection Geax Saguaros almost daily for a year. That includes a ton of commuting, road training, clinics, pump, jump, slalom and some trail, not to mention lots of figure eights and flat-ground pumping drills.

The freeride-oriented White Saguaros were a bit heavy and not super fast, but they worked well in all conditions and … drum roll please … no flats in a year! Oh, and they took 3rd at the Intergalactic Pump Track Championships right behind Brian Lopes and Jon Watt—not bad.

My Saguaros finally wore out, but a year of solid, aggressive use is pretty darn commendable. And those whitewalls were just too cool.








The White Collection Saguaros gave me a lot of confidence. Video: Pumping the S section at The Fix pump track.

To sum it up: Your P.bike is going to rock.

And thanks re: the twins. They’re growing fast but making their mom super sick. She’d be relieved with morning sickness; she’s rocking the all-day-and-night sickness!

    Thanks for the update. I plan to have the P.3 ready to rock by the time I’m set to ride again (shoulder separation about four weeks ago). I hope your wife gets feeling better!
