Default YANT (yet another Turner)

Sorry to disappoint Dino ( and Foshizzle), but I have built yet another bike, this time a Turner Flux. With this latest addition, I am rapidly approaching a quiver of bikes! The build came in at close to 28 lbs, but I could easily drop some weight on a couple of places. I put the Rock Shox Revelation on it so it could do well on the downhills at 130mm, and climb back up at 100mm. This evening shall be its first time on dirt. Sadly, the bike will never be this clean again.

FoWTF- after all the turner smack talk on the board, now this???
i smell something fishy. Payoff, backmail, sell-out, what gives. There were a few constants in the world such as death, taxes, your unadulterated commentary on turners. someone get some last night

btw - von dig, nice build, cool color

Atta boy. Looks nice Matt. I really like the orange ano. I'd be interested to hear how the revelation works out on the Flux.

Break it in at STT/Luge tonight 7:30. I'll bring mine if you bring yours.

I'm headed out to Dell Cerro today. I am sure this weekend I will be in your neck of the woods and will compare notes.

Like you need a light bike? Awesome looking. It does appear to be a little chopperesque.

Yeah, with the fork at 130mm, it does look a little choppered out, but I dial it down to 100mm for climbing, and it works great.
