Hello! Nice people of the Turner Forum!
I hope some of the experts among you could be kind enough to answer this question eaven though its old story for many of you. I allready read all the old posts but iam still a bit confused.
I love my 06 5spot and hope i will keep riding it forever!
What i dont like is
--the DHX air. It needs the 30%sag to feel plush and then theres nothing on the midlevel and its easy to bottom too. And its heavy too.
--I need to have the pike dialed to 125mm to have the geometry right. (whats the point having long travel fork and onlu use some of the travel!!)
Bb height is not a problem i often hit the pedals but i dont mind. the bike feels very stable and i often ride very slowly trial style with biggish obstacles.
i am considering the Push rockers cos , its christmas time and Darren from the push inc. promised that they have a new set of these available.
but after reading all the old posts iam under the impression that the bike will feel bigger with these and the medium is allready on biggish side to me. and i defenately dont want it feel more slow an corners.
Whats the real world effect with push rockers is the bike noticeable longer , bigger , feelin or higher????
would the newer turner made rockers be an option and would they steepen the front so that i coud use the full travel on Pike?
And improve the suspenssion with rp3orrp23??
Sorry for long post and thank you for your time.
heres the spot on action
