[Closed] transition bikes

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

Surf Sales

Ride central used to, got "replaced by"[url= http://www.surf-sales.com/bike_pages/bike.asp ]surf sales[/url]. Transition are a great company, asked questions of them when I brought a [url= http://www.transitionbikes.com/PDF/CovertV1.pdf ]COVERT Version 1[/url] the company ower emailed back. They are a popular bike in NZ where I live. I would recommend them highly.

i like the blindside 🙂

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!

The bottlerocket is the full suspension bike I lust after

I,ve got a bottlerocket for sale. Just got to get the pics together.

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.

The 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".

Great photo..

Cheers, got POD on Pinkbike a while back 🙂

Thought it was the Cambu stepdown, that photo does make it look smaller too..

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 [url= http://www.bothybikes.co.uk ]clickertydoodar[/url]

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.
