I just cracked my '04 DHR in 4 places. :stosh: Two cracks on and around the left side main pivot, another on the right. And a crack on the upper shock mount. I've had it for 6 months and have not "hucked" it. And I'm no heavyweight (170lb). I love the bike though, fast and nimble. Anyone else experience this? I'm calling Turner today.

You little troll, don't you know Turners never have any problems? Why would you post here before calling the company to see what they'll do about it. I'm sure they'll give you a new frame if you just call them. You're just trying to cause problems on our happy little message board... BAN HIM...









Sorry, my alter ego took over.... Call turner and let us know what they do about it. I've yet to hear any problems like this with DHR's, which probablly means that Turner takes care of their customers so threads like this don't end up hurting their business.

Hmm, I guess I should have seen that one since my post count is currently higher than yours. Really though, 4 incidents out of how many thousand dhr's, that's almost as good a track record as the bullit.
I know...Not bashing Turner or DHRs, just pointing out that even some of the best bikes out there have problems!

Speaking of best bikes out there are you going to be an 05 DHR or something else?? I am going to get another season out of my 02 then? Who knows.

He spent the $$ from the DHR and bought some gold leaf spandex... I hear he's now doing like 50 mile rides where he goes up the trail, and down the road....... ;)

Hahaha, wow. You're a little edgy.. but funny nonetheless. I though in my first post I included the phrases "I love my Turner" and "I'm calling them today"

Sorry Kidwoo, I lack my digital camera at the moment. :redX:

does anyone know if they honor any kind of warranty for a second owner. I think I'm about to buy Bibs bike and I was wondering what kind of help I could expect from them if something cracks on this '04.
