Been saying I'm surprised that 27.5 dirt jump bikes weren't a thing, I am glad Specialized is trying to lead the way. I started mountainbiking by taking my dirt jump bike to the woods and riding downhill trails on it, I can really see something like this be a great starter bike for a kid who wants to ride in the woods with their friends, hit the local skatepark, pump track or jumps, or even try and bring 4X back... cool do-it-all bike.
looks insane! get my one today from my dealer :). like the bigger size, cause switching between Beta 300 ; Stumpjumper and DJ bike is bigger bike better .
We had a lot of rain, but yesterday was the first big dj session. Just unreal, how good it rides. Still very agile, but comfortable on the size for bigger people. Superb quite, very nice damped Z1 Fork with a lot of progression. And tires roll excellent but very grippy. Can't recommended any more... A lot of people asked which bike it is❤
@@Max-dj5qj thank you for the update!! I felt the same things as well. I loved how it felt. Just a bigger more comfy dirt jumper. Even though I ride a 26” personally I would buy one if I rode a lot of trail style jumps or bigger jump lines
Thank you for this review. I just came back from the Specialized store and still guessing what to do. I rode the Commençal Absolut size L for the last 3 years and have to replace my frame. Tried the new P3 and found it too small and loved this P4 in the shop but maybe it’s a little bit too big and not sure about the 27.5 wheels. I don’t (usually) ride skate park but lots of steep dirt jumps
Honestly if you feel comfy with the bigger setup just go that route. It would do fine on steeper dirt jumps I’m sure. It would probably feel just as good!
@@allenm456 finally I got the bike. First drop felt little bit weird like the first time you ride a 29er. Same day, after a few jumps it felt incredible. Smoother than the 26 and fine on steeper jumps. Maybe if you do tricks like 360 or 720 you can feel the difference but not for tabletops and whips IMO
I'm very interested in this P4. However, the SPECIALIZED website states that the minimum height is 172cm. Do you think it would be difficult for people under 170cm to handle? Or is it safer to choose P3?
How’s it handle pump track duty? Gotta imagine it’s more handful on a tight track? Definitely see the draw for bigger guys and big jumps, despite the pushback.
I rode the bike on two different pump tracks on the bike and I can honestly say it handles them very well. It is so smooth and soaks up the rollers super nice.

I have a PBJ in X-Long so I really want to try one of these out.
What about the P4 for Velosolutions pump track?
This is rad 😎

Do you think it would be difficult for people under 170cm to handle?
Or is it safer to choose P3?
What are the specs on the Absolute Black crank ring and rear sprocket? Does it need an additional chain tensioner?
Im 6’4”… that bike would be perfect for me :)

What size are those tires? 27.5 x ??? Thanks!
Is it possible for you to tell me the exact parameters of these tires, what is their width? because I know it's G-ONE 27.5" SPEED TLE
What bars and rise are the bars? Racepoint or high side 50mm?
My dad has this bike
How tall are you
I am 5’10”
@@allenm456😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why they didn’t use Rockshox
26 ain't dead. Don't forget that. 27.5 dj is wack.
6’3” came from full 29ers, 26 is fine specialized is always trying to create market gaps to fill when they dont even exist
Then there’s me doing pump tracks on a Rocky Mountain altitude 😂😂😂 29er 160/170 travel locked out 😂😂
What a waste of money.
