sultan frame with upgrade kit::.

Our Upgrade Kit is the perfect solution for those who want to upgrade to a new Turner frame from your current MTB. This package includes a new Fox Fork, Seatpost and a SRAM X-9 front derailleur. Yes, that means we give you all the Turner specific parts so that you can use all of your existing parts to get your new Turner frame rolling. So it's as easy as pie * . . .

* Yeah I know, nobody likes an asterisk and the small print but it happens. . . When ordering an upgrade kit be sure to check with your local dealer to make sure that all of your existing parts are, firstly, safe to use and, secondly, do not require any special adapters to be used on your new Turner frame. Although in most cases a Turner Upgrade Kit will be a simple swap but, as with life, nothing is guaranteed since we can't account for every component option available.

For those of you who prefer the 'a la carte' menu of MTB components, here it is, the heart and soul of your new ride. Custom builds can be your closest choice to birthing your own MTB. With every option across the bike industry as a starting point it can be more than exciting or perhaps maybe a little overwhelming. . . for those of us who cherish the OCD task of analyzing every bit, well then have at it. Otherwise be sure to check out our growing build kit options. There is now no reason to lose sleep over which chain to buy or be let down because you can't roll on your new ride since you just realized that bikes need tires.

story ::.

With twenty nine inch wheels and 120mm of travel, the updated 29r from Turner is for everyone who loves the 29 inch wheel characteristics and now can utilize those big wheels with a class leading 120mm of dw-link travel. David Turner and Dave Weagle really did their homework on the Sultan.

Carefully blending the dynamics of rider positioning with the special anti-squat needs of the 29 inch wheeled bike. Special attention was paid to the relationship between bottom bracket height, chainstay length and dw-link placement resulting in super efficient power transfer through those big wheels, yet always fully active suspension that devours everything mother earth has in front of it.

The riding gauge is only an example illustrating this bikes intended use, as both build components and the riders' skill level can appropriately dictate how this bike may be ridden.
