//The Basic Stuff
Check Your Tire Pressure.
Tire Pressure plays a very
important role in how your bike will ride and perform. Traction
is Everything!
Tighten Your Quick Releases.
Simple Yes, but with
grave consequences if gone unchecked.
Lube Your Chain.
Duh Right? Well you would not
believe how many squeaky pivots turn out to be dry chains.
//Lubing Zerk Fittings
Your frame has five-eight Zerk fitting locations which should be
lubed every 3-6 months in normal-dry conditions and every
10-20 hours of riding in wet conditions. When Lubing use a bent
tip needle grease gun and inject enough grease to pressurize the
system.
//Checking Pivot Bolts
Every 6 months, you can use a Torque Wrench to check each of
the pivot bolts. DO NOT Perform this check unless you have and
know how to use a Torque Wrench. Continued overtightening of
the pivot bolts may result in pivot bolt failure and injury, which
will NOT be covered under any warranty.
//Frequently Asked Questions
What size seat post does my Turner use?
All dw-link Turner's take a 30.9mm seatpost.
Can I use a QR seat collar & what size should I get?
Yes, you can use a quick release seat collar on all dw-link
Turner's. The seat collar size from the factory is 35mm.
How much seat post insertion do I really need?
Turner recommends a minimum of 4 inchs or 100mm of
post insertion into the frame.
What if I run a fork with longer travel than specified?
By running a longer than recommended fork, it will slacken
the angles, raise the bottom bracket and increase the standover.
Which may have a negative affect on the way the bike rides.
What if I need replacement parts?
Either contact your dealer or go to our online store

The Flux, Sultan, & Burner use a 34.9mm, Top-pull, Bottom-
