Submitted by Tim a Racer from Fraser, Colorado, USA
Date Reviewed: October 24, 2002
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Strengths:This bike was originally bought for DH. It has now become my FR bike. Although it does not handle all out DH duties like my DH9 does, it is the most balanced natural feeling bike I have ever ridden. I usually buy and sell bikes at a fairly rapid rate. The Turner is the oldest bike in my quiver currently which says a lot. I have had plenty of good offers on the bike but I just can't give it up.
Weaknesses:None that I can come up with.
Similar Products Used:2001 & 2002 Yeti DH9
Bike Setup:White Bros UD150 forks, Fox Vanilla RC rear shock
Bottom Line:One of the most refined rides I have ever ridden. Would reccomend to ANYONE!

Favorite Trail:
anything
Duration Product Used:
3 months
Strengths:
Easily pedaled, excellent rear suspension and high quality workmanship
Weaknesses:
NO triple ring compatability, but it is in the works
Similar Products Used:
UZZI DH, FOES Weasel
Bike Setup:
Boxxer, hope disks, RaceFace/XTR components with Mr. Dirt Chain guide and Michelin Wildgripper DH tires
Bottom Line:My UZZI DH got stolen in January got my Turner in Febuary. It's too bad about my UZZI but I like my turner much more. I weigh 230 punds and the frame doesn't shudder under braking and the suspension rate is so smooth on teh Afterburner that I can barely tell when I bottom it, with my intense there was a noticibal bottom to the stroke of the travel. No brake shudder on the turner and the frame is incredible stiff.
Overall Rating:5
