I'm restoring a 2005 Turner DHR. I've always loved how these bikes looked.

It’s not ‘resorting to’ when it’s a frame THAT good!

That's lovely. Paint job/decals look good.

That blue suits it perfectly, well done!

I'm working on a white/glow in the dark version of the same type.

If you check out my profile pictures, you can see that the frame didn’t look THAT good when I bought it. Oh, sorry. Restoring. Not Resorting..... lol

Thanks! Your DHR looks amazing too! Are you planning on building it up? Please post some pics of it when it’s complete.

@rpb10276 Will be back here to post the complete build soon. Off to Gibraltar with work in the morning for a couple of weeks though.

Cheers and enjoy the blue beast.

Turners have always been damn good looking bikes. That blue though. Goddamn.

The most amazing part of this thread (apart from those gorgeous Turners) is that I used to think these bikes looked sleek and modern, when they were current. It's amazing how perception of modern style changes so quickly. Now they all look so short and stubby compared to the long and low trend of today.
