Smooth, agile, centered, and fast, the Turner Flux is a XC machine with tons of versatility. When I shopped for this bike originally, the folks at Turner told me they wanted the handling to be "intuitive," and that's probably about the best word I could use to describe this bike. Our trails here are tight, flowy, with poppy hills and the occasional chunky section, and I've never felt better or had a bike feel more natural than this one. I timed myself repeatedly on this bike vs. my old Niner hardtail that my son now rides (which is also 4 lbs lighter), and my times always come out identically, which shows that for a lot of riding, 26" is faster 50% of the time. That's due in large part to Turner's dialed in geometry and especially the dw-link suspension, which is super smooth and makes for great climbing and descending--the thing is like a missile (additional speed complements of the recently-added dropper post). I upgraded to the the Haven Carbon wheelset for faster rides, which means the two wheelsets offer even more versatility for this amazing bike. Hammer fast laps or go adventuring, this bike does both with equal skill.

Bike is in excellent condition. It has been ridden for 2 years and shows minor scratches on frame and wheels and normal cosmetic signs of wear. All components are well cared for: new brake pads this spring, I replace my chain well before wear to save the cassette, clean it regularly, etc.

Will have my shop box and ship to continental US or Canada for $150. Local pick up of course an option.
