Well the time has finally come to sell by beloved Turner:
The frame is a 19" (24" top tube) 2002-2004 V3 Turner Burner (see here for a brief history of Turner models) with "XR" rockers fitted to give 4" of travel. The manitou swinger air shock works perfectly and has plenty of scope for adjustment with both positive and negative air chambers and compression and rebound adjusters.
The bike has been built up with a variety of quality kit; the forks are a set of nearly new Rock Shox Revelation Race 2009 Dual Airs with Poplock fitted and the travel reduced to 110mm. The drivetrain is a mixture of an XTR M950 chainset with an XT rear mech. The wheels are lightweight DT 240 hubs laced to Mavic 717 rims with DT revolution spokes and finished off with a conti vertical pro kevlar front tyre and yeti FRO rear. Front brake is a Formula oro K-16 (180mm) whilst the rear is a 160mm Hayes El Camino. The bike is then setup with a synchros post, ti flite saddle and race face stem.

All the parts are used but not abused. Everything is in good working order, there are no leaks, cracks or dents. Obviously there is some cosmetic wear and tear as you'd expect on a bike of this vintage - scratches, paint chips and so on plus a minor bit of chainsuck. The cassette and chain have plenty of life left in them as do the brake pads, although the chainrings will probably need replacing soon. Fork stanchions are perfect.
To be honest I haven't ridden the bike much at all for the last couple of years as my riding time has been mainly limited to quick blasts round the local woods on my hardtail.
Looking for about £750 which I think is a pretty good price really. Ideally I'd like to sell it to someone who's going to ride it rather than just split it down and lob the bits on ebay.
If you want to take a look in person I'm based in Nottingham. I don't mind shipping the frame within the uk but postage and insurance would cost extra.
Any questions just drop me an email.
Cheers
