[Spy Shots] New Turner Flux

/

[ad3]  At Sea Otter we did a little bit of sneaking around and got a chance to snap some photos of something very new from Turner Bikes.  The new Flux goes full carbon (aside from the linkage) and takes a very similar shape to the RFX which we recently tested.  Turner was a tight lipped about details on the new bike so we’ll have to wait and see what unfolds in the coming weeks.

Price, Weight, Travel, Geometry and Availability : TBD (Sorry!)



.

For now take a look at what we saw…
