Turner DHR Enduro Edition (26/29 Mullet) 9
Parts
General Info
Frankenbike Time! I bought this Turner DHR from the classifieds for the Dorado it came with. I needed it for an electric moto project for my girlfriend. Upon getting it, and realizing there is no inventory anywhere for new bikes, I ended up deciding to build this into a super forgiving enduro bike. $1000 worth of parts from Amazon later (some very questionable) and shazam - here she is.
My Specialized enduro is the exact same weight. I know I could drop about 1 pound off the back wheel by getting rid of the DH tire and tube.
The 30 tooth front cog and 52 tooth cassette (again, amazon special) should prove to be plenty easy enough for anyone to get up a modest climb.
The worst parts...
1) The HTA is 62.3 degrees. A bitttt slack. A smaller front tire or a 27.5" wheel would probably be best (or reducing travel).
2) The STA is ridiculously slack. Oh well. "Slide up on the seat babe"
