I believe RideCentral are Uk distributors for Transition. Might have changed though.

Ride central used to, got "replaced by"surf sales. Transition are a great company, asked questions of them when I brought a COVERT Version 1 the company ower emailed back. They are a popular bike in NZ where I live. I would recommend them highly.

My mate loves his bottlerocket, looks like it could survive anything, looks especially sweet in 'gray speckle'.
I'm liking the look of the tr450.

They are good bikes. Billy from Dirt mag has a Double so you may be able to find his wee write up somewhere on the web. The Covert was tested in What MTB this month and looks very good.

I am pretty desperate to try a Covert at some point this summer, just don't know where I can find one! Bit far off yet to start trying *that* hard to get a test ride though!
Will probably get onto Surf Sales nearer the time!

I like the look of these bikes, seen a Bottlerocket in the flesh, looked tough. Covert looks sweet.

the Covert looks sick in that bottle-green!

I have a Bottlerocket, really like it, ace for "freeriding", mini Dh etc.
And being ridden;
Some more pics of it here;
http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/x_directtoalbum/?id=4157536The only problem with it is that its a Transition, so all the little kids bum it, not because its a good bike (which it is IMO), but simply because its a Transition, and is therefore "cool".

Kids bumming bikes, whatever next!

id go for an orange blood over the bottle rocket. i love them both but the bottle rocket still has standard dropouts? the blood has a maxle. for a freeride bike i think the through axle is a must. iv bent and destroyed so many qr hubs it makes sense for me. the transition bikes do look the business though.

bothy bikes are dealing in transition now clickertydoodar

Joe, I have a Pro2 with a 10mm bolt up (not bolt through) conversion, and have had no problems with it, and its been ridden fairly hard.
But yes, a rear Maxle would be even better I think.Posted 2 years ago #
