I have the same generation of Turbines. I bought them around 2011 when I converted my first gen alloy Enduro 29 to 11spd 1x using a Oneup expander cog and cage. Those cranks have run on every bike I've owned since, including my latest, total of 8 bikes I think. At least that many chainrings have been run on them, one season with an 83mm axle. They're still going strong.
I also have a pair of Derby DH carbon/Hope 29" wheels I built up around the same time and they're still going strong. 7 year old carbon wheels... not really sure what to do with them now.
From the freeride era I have a Carve stem. It's barely not a block of aluminum and it's amazing.
