I ordered this for my GF's birthday and it showed up almost 6 weeks after her birthday putting me in the doghouse but that's the way it goes in the bike industry I guess. The sparkle orange paint job is rad.



Build photos next week.

Nice color. I love my Flux but what I saw of the machining on the newer seatstay yokes from the old turner website I wanted to puke. Got any shots of that?

I dropped it off at the shop so no more photos. I liked the look of the machining.

From the shot on the website it seemed like they designed it to scream "hey I'm machined" instead of machining it to make the best part. I work with CNC's everyday so I'm a little critical and was just going on a crappy picture. The machining on the chainstay yoke looks nicely done.

Either way the Flux is a wonderful bike. I love mine, it handles like no other bike I have been on. Quick enough to handle the tightest singletrack yet it will chew up steep technical stuff better than any of the trailbikes I have owned.
