Dave’s only just unpacked from Garda and now he’s off to Finale, for another gelato fuelled bike trip. This time he’ll be riding this stealthed up 140mm and 27.5 Turner Burner.

That burner looks sweet. Just like my black flux, but biggerer, betterer and 650b-erer. I think that’s high on my “next bike list”. But what’s the rear tyre clearance like?
It isn’t great on my flux, anything more than a 2.2 MKII and it’s in trouble (although I accepts that it’s intended purpose isn’t to rag around with big tyres on).
Finale – Lucky git!
It’s work yeah? 😉
reasonable priced stuff this week….
What forks have you put on the Turner guys?
A Howies windproof for £39.99?
Is there a zero missing from that or are they reasonably priced at long last?
