I know this is not "downhill" material, but I think lots of DH guys like slalom and 4X stuff, so here is a pic of Turner's new slalom bike. I've had one day on it and it's better than the last one. Shorter chainstays, mainly, 3.5 inches of travel instead of 3. It's dope. It weighs under 30 pounds, even with the 36 up front. The new DHR will be built up Wednesday, I'll post a pic of that after the Otter.
New Slalom Bike
- Thread starter dhrace507
- Start date
I rode the large today, and it's definitely not too big for someone 6 feet tall. The headtube isn't that long, and the front end felt low with a 40 at 8 inches of travel. (this is coming from someone who ran everything as low as possible last year on the dhr with e-13 flush mount reducer cups)
are you kidding? under 30lbs... my god that is a race bike if i ever saw one. i wouldn't feel safe on a bike less than 30lbs. i almost shat my pants comming off a regular ol jump when i finished lightening up my hardtail to 32lbs... ahha didn't think she'd withstand the impact!
That bike is gay and you are slow, and gay.
ef the DHR in this thread, give it a unique one... OH SNAP, there already is one.
as for the slalom bike above, NICE! any numbers on it? sub 30 sounds nuts.

Nice one steve,
You black old one is still nice too.
Ring reinforced at the bottom of the headtube, so you cna run a normal headset instead of a deep cup one?
