just got to put the chain on and set the shocks up and get out on it !!!

its slightly shorter in the top tube than my last bike but going by recommendations on here it should be spot on size wise!!

cheers

Nice, very nice. I bet those grips dont stay white for long at this time of year. ๐Ÿ™‚

Stem looks very long.
Did you need planning permission for it ?

stem is 100mm so not too long.

top tube is shorter than my last bike by around 12mm and i used to run a 90mm stem on that.

will see how i get on with it although i suspect i might need a layback post.

cheers

Nice....
why o why do Turner put that brace on the seat / top tube, it looks aweful and just an after thought.
Seen one up close and really question the design / looks of that brace.
I know everyone will say, keeps the standover low with a lower top tube but that brace has always looked PANTS !
Nice bike though ๐Ÿ™„

You know when, if it looks right it probably is............
For my eyes it looks like the bars come up a bit high with the spacers.
On the other hand , whatever suits, it's still purrrrdy and I wish I had one ๐Ÿ™‚
