    I was a little bit naughty and treated myself to a stunning ano orange Turner Burner 🙂

    Built by the lovely Onzadog, she’s lovely… Fox 34 150 forks, e.13 TRS wheels, SIXC cranks, XT group set and brakes.. Rides absolutely beautifully.

    Going to be tested in a few weeks for a Welsh coast to coast, and in Moab a few weeks after that! I honestly can’t wait for both epics!!

    Thanks guys 🙂

    I was concerned that the trade-off would be a bit draggy climbing but she climbs beautifully… Descents are fab! I really am completely blown away (and probably very annoying to ride with ATM!!)!!!

    Hey, the best things come in small packages & all that.
    I’m 5’6 in my thickest socks & on the cusp of Turners size chart between Small & Medium so inclined to go for a small, shame there’s none in stock 🙁

    Speak to your neighbour for some lawn care tips. Otherwise, looks ACE!

    Looks nice though.

    Dream bike right there!
    You’re just missing a dropper..
    Do you use pro pedal/lockout much on the shock?

    Large wheels and small bike 😉

    Yep, need a dropper post (especially for Moab!) – just *ahem* had to rein it in having got a bit carried away with the build…! Quite fancy a Thomson dropper actually..

    Only had 3 rides so far but haven’t locked it out yet (and probably won’t). Had both in trail mode today for proper xc riding and that worked well – at Cannock / Afan last weekend I left them in descend which was fine.

    One does look at Miss’ picture and think “that’s either a very small bike or a very big fence”.

    Nowt wrong with being compact. 15 years ago I was just above average height for a man. Now, what with modern parents insisting on feeding their kids and not sending them down the mines at aged 8, the average has gone up and I’m below it.
