Cable stops are roughed in.
- 27.5/650b wheel size
- 160mm rear travel
- head tube ready for an Angleset
- PF30 BB with ISCG05
- modular dropouts with axle options
- way oversize bearings and pivot axles
- patented insert-badass-buzzword rear suspension system that really smart friends of mine think might actually work pretty damn well
Let’s build a bike.

Having just installed the seat stay I bought 4 years ago so that I would never have to get rid of my 2004 5 spot, it’s starting to dawn on me that eventually it will die and I should probably start to research it’s replacement. As I’m doing this, the thing that keeps turning me back to Turner is the journal bearings they use. I just thought you might want to look into using them for what seems like an otherwise perfect concept.
I hear you, Josh, and thanks. Sure would make things easier for some aspects of the design. I have to say I think Santa Cruz has pivots nailed right now, though. Angular contact, lifetime replacement, big ol’ pins. Always a tough call, there, though.
