2018 Transition Scout Alloy
2018 Transition Scout Alloy is the Patrols little brother. One of the most playful trail bikes you can buy on the market, the 2018 Transition Scout Alloy has had the Speed Balance Geometry treatment from Transition for 2018.
As a rider owned company Kyle and Kevin obsess about making and riding bikes that make them better riders and allow the guys to have more fun on the trail. You can get much more fun than the Transition Scout.
It’s about taking a holistic approach to creating a bike that changes the way riders connect with their bike. Kevin, Kyle and the rest of the Transition crew started with a clean slate and new approach to bike geometry they call SBG (Speed Balanced Geometry) that puts the rider in a more balanced position on the bike which improves traction and control at all speeds.
Their main focus with the updates was to maintain the ride feel of each model while simultaneously pressing the enhance button a few times
This little horse has packed on a bit more muscle for 2018. Gaining 10mm travel front and rear while its been in the gym, now stands out at 150mm front travel and 130mm rear. Still keeping its playful character that its know for.
Its great that Transition have listened to the wants a needs of the customer and are now providing rattle free internal cable port covers. No one likes a rattle!
Transition have optimized pedaling performance, additional size options, and ton of new features to create their most capable lineup to date. Stoked!
