Default 2007 Turner Spot frame
New model Turner Spot, 5.5 inch travel, medium size, redesigned swingarm, Fox RP23 ,Thomson seatpost, Salsa QR seatclamp, and 2 spare deraillieur hangers included. Just built up last week of September and ridden 8 times(No BS). This frame is in as new condition and has only 8 rides on it, 2 of those STR rides in the San Gabs. Bike is built right now, but I will post more detailed photos this weekend after tear down. The Turner Spot is hard to get this year, so if your tired of waiting, here's your chance to get one now. would like to get $1700 for it. Ask anything you need to know. Thanks.

Why oh why are you selling it? Are you tired of being a Homer (I used to be one)? What did you get to replace it?

I thought you were getting used to that bike. I saw the bike in person this past weekend, it's in great condition.

denmother - I just wasn't feeling the love I had on my Intense 5.5, so that is what I'm going back to. I'm not a Turner hater, i would still like to built a RFX for big bike someday.

I had a 5 Spot a few years back and we just didn't get along on steep downhills. I traded it in for a Morewood Shova ST (which rocks on the downhill). Never ridden a 5.5. My husband has a 6.6 and I love the way it climbs. I have a Spider that I ride for XC which I love.

Well the 5.5 fits right between the 6.6 and spider. New one is Pearl white, but here's the old 5.5

Todd, I guess the Pushed shock didn't do it for ya. I like my 07 RFX much more than my old 5-Spot.

Yeah the Spot is not giving me the love I need. I'm looking forward to the new Intense 5.5.

I had a Superlight (the 1st year they came out). It was an awesome bike, I even raced DH on it at Big Bear back in the day (2002). It was actually set up as a FR bike with a Z1 compression lockout fork.
