* Inseam measurements are fine for pant shopping, but have no place in mountain bike shopping. Leg length is what is important as rarely does anyone buy pants that have the same inseam as their actual leg length. Since no one rides barefoot the leg length should be measured with your mountain bike shoes on standing against a wall and with a carpenters square or large sized book firmly raised into the crotch and square to the wall is how to figure leg length. Turner Bikes measures ‘Standover’ height 6” / 150mm in front of the BB center, that is roughly the MIDDLE of the Top Tube, not at the actual lowest point way back at the junction with the Seat Tube as some companies do. The allows for plenty of standover clearance without the nose of the seat crushing into your spine! Features ::.
Reviews ::. ![]() Just a quick note to say I've now had a good few rides on the Burner, you asked to let you know what I thought... Well not much to say but friggin brilliant! All the things I thought that would be a bit of a compromise over the Flux are in fact better. It climbs better for a start which I didn't expect at all. The reason for not expecting that was the slack front end but it's great, even on steeps. It did feel weird at first but I had a 100mm stem and 685mm bars so I swapped them for an 80mm and 750mm bars and bam transformed. Which amazed me as I've always been a long stem and narrow bar guy 'much to the amusement of my mates' but the short and wide really suits the bike. Obviously decsending is just superb and way better than the Flux which was to be expected. Wheel size is a strange one, I didn't feel a great difference but did feel there was a kind of subtle momentum. Looking down at the front wheel it did look big but I didn't feel a massive change. However when a mate asked for a go, I got on his 26" bike and it really became apparent that there was just a right feeling with the 650b that was more noticable when it's not there. I guess that's it, it just feels RIGHT and it suits tha kind of riding I call proper mountain biking. Normally 35-45 miles up, down and along type rides..:-) I've been MTbing 20 years now and the Burner is simply the best all round bike I have ever slung my leg across Thanks for all the help and the phone call prior to buying.....it is just a great great bike! ~ Thanks Howard | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
