As for the DHR, it works and works well and Turner quality and customer service are legendary.dirtjumpP.1 said:i understand that they are good, but what is it that makes everyone want one.i was at a race today, and about half the dhers are riding dhrs. what makes these bikes the popular ones?
Its the yearly ridemonkey hype. Theres a new one every year. One or two bikes become THE bike to own. Next year it will flip and 1 or 2 other bikes (heck maybe some new fork besides the fox forks) will become THE part to own.dirtjumpP.1 said:i understand that they are good, but what is it that makes everyone want one.i was at a race today, and about half the dhers are riding dhrs. what makes these bikes the popular ones?
Your disk hangs heaps deeper than that knobbie (which is a protector anyway).vtrider said:Apparently they're sick, but id be nervous with that massive knob hanging off the bottom of my fork. Apparently no one has broken the knob yet though

Coincidentally, Evil ISN'T screwing people on the price of DOC's.dirtjumpP.1 said:yeah for p bikes
specialized is screwing people on the p.3 frame, its 550 dollars, which is 200 less than the p.1 which has the same frame
The dirtjumpP1 guy went to the first race in the PNW this summer and saw all the new bikes and has some serious new bike envy.SkaredShtles said:Hm.

The DHR's is short for the Turner DH bike (DHR) and the DOC is the new Steel hardtail bike from Evil.
P1 just wishes he had a new bike.
