bikemagic.com would be a good place to start.

Any Specialized dealer should, in theory, be able to get you decals

I go riding a lot, bit of XC, freeriding and downhilling etc.

I'm thinking of organising a meet with the people of Corsasport but for riding

Iv got a specialized p3 and these days ride mainly trails and freeride. used to do alot of dirt jumping too but im a bit out of touch now! my bike was bog standard when i brought it and now the only original thing is the frame my local bike shop is a spesh dealer, but last time i used them they were no helpful at all. I smell a cs biking meet coming along so deano count me in bud

Yeah any specialized dealer should be able to get them for you.

failing that, get a local sign writer to knock some up.. that way u can have diff colours from standard etc

Cool good to hear people enthusiastic about a bike meet.

A good place to go would actually be Chicksands right near me (not because it's near me) but because there is something for everyone there, I know the place, so no-one should get lost etc, plus it's pretty central.

There is limited parking though. I might be able to talk to my dad who can take bikes and kit in the van, then I can take people in my car etc to save cars up there

I went to local specailzed dealership who are getting hold of some 2008 P3 decals for me so should look a bit different

Pics of stripping

wheels off


bars/forsks/brakes, couldnt be bothered to completely pull them apart


and the frame ready to be stripped and painted. Im going to spray it a bright metalic white with black decals
