- Building American Made Bikes Designed to Perform and Endure Since 1994 - We Live, We Ride & We Build Bikes:
Building American made suspension mountain bikes since
1994, Turner Suspension Bikes has been at the forefront of
suspension mountain bike technologies for one very important
reason... because we ride what we build. Perhaps it is not an
altruistic endeavor, but we are also not going to feed you with
a loaded mission statement about how we are planning on
saving the world one bike at a time.
We simply design and build suspension mountain bikes
that are meant to be ridden hard, purely because we prefer
riding our bikes over fixing them. The way we see it, a
suspension mountain bike should be able to ride through the
mud without destroying the pivot
bearings, it should be able
to effortlessly ride on the side of a rut
and then not chatter
over a series of roots down the trail, it should inspire confidence
with speed and encourage you to pedal up
that next climb
without a second thought, and it should have a company
behind it that is willing to back up every claim with excellent
customer service when you need it most. Performing and
Enduring is what every Turner suspension mountain bike
was born to do.

Why use Journal Bearngs?
6ODPmpSoN J TFE PeS GoSNBODF
The journal bearing design offers incredible strength and long life with very little mainte
nance. Standard bearings are designed with high-speed rotation in mind (skateboard wheels, drill
motors etc.) The journal bearing we use has a purpose of holding a very tight tolerance along with
carrying a load much greater than that produced by a bicycle frame, these two attributes we feel are
essential to a great riding bike.
The rear of our frames often gets praise for how stiff it is laterally and how well it tracks through
the roots, ruts, and rocks encountered on a mountain bike. Because a bearing found in a bike pivot
never makes a full rotation, you rely on two maybe three of the balls in the cartridge to carry the
entire load and pressures generated by the rider. Over time this is what creates that "crunchy" feel
or "squeaky" sounds people often comment about.
Standard bearings are also made of steel, steel rusts after being exposed to water, grit and grime,
again found in our everyday riding. So long lasting, tight tolerance and incredible load bearing
capabilities are why we have chosen to stick with journal bearings.

The Turner dw-link:
UMU J N BUe &ffi ciFODZ
Simultaneously engineered anti-squat
and wheel rate curves are the mathematical
formulas that make the dw-link the world’s most
efficient and traction-aiding suspension system.
PoT J UJPO 4FOTJU Jve A OUJ4RVBU Newton’s 3rd law states that every action has an
equal and opposite reaction. When a vehicle accelerates,
the reaction is that its mass is transferred rearward. dw-link’s
patented position sensitive anti-squat perfectly balances this
rearward mass transfer, increasing efficiency, traction, and
bump sensitivity, and eliminating pedal feedback.
W IFFl 3BU e
Each dw-link frame is engineered for an optimum wheel rate and to work for a specific use
with a specific spring and vdamper. Unlike other suspension systems, dw-link’s does not rely on
pedaling platform type dampers, giving the best bump absorption and traction of any suspension
available today. Advanced riders use these traits to pump terrain in the trail and add momentum
.
#S BLiOH SUBCJMJU Z
The dw-link suspension projects its instant center to an ideal location, achieving a balance of
traction and stability under hard braking that is unmatched by other suspensions
.
LFBT U 1FEBl FFFECBDL
Perception of pedal feedback on a bicycle is a manifes- tation of rapid chainstay length change
and gearing effects. dw-link uses a smooth and positive chainstay lengthening effect to offset
negative gearing effects. This results in a smooth ride with imperceptible pedal feedback over the
entire gear range .
AmBzi OH5 SBDUJ PO
As the dw-link suspension reacts to obstacles, its position sensitive axle path intelligently
changes to meet the demands of the trail. In the beginning of the travel, its rearward profile gives
incredible small bump absorption and traction on theclimbs. In the middle of the travel, the dw-link
axle path works with the front suspension to provide a balanced feel for amazing cornering
confidence and jumping ability. The end of the travel provides an increase in compression damping
for bottomless suspension feel and big hit absorption
.
SU SVDUVSBl 4VQFSJoSJU Z
dw-link uses short, stiff links, and a triangulated rear swingarm. This unique layout aligns
suspension forces in the most efficient manner possible to enable frame designs with industry leading
strength-to-weight ratios and stiffness. This structural advantage lets dw-link riders
put down power more efficiently and track straight in the bumps where others
veer off course .
