Is the Transition Relay NX Alloy build Worth It at $4699? Price Spec Analysis Buyers Guide 

This bike is amazing! Only complaint would be the brakes lack power for this bike. I have used both Code Rs and Code RSCs. Code RSCs are more powerful, but Code Rs are good for most types of riders and bikes. As for the Fork, I like Marzocchi Z1 just as much as my Rockshox Zeb Ultimate. This fork does not need to be upgraded, unless you are a person who enjoys messing around with multiple settings. As for the shock, I did replace it with a Marzocchi CR1. Again, I love this “budget” shock just as much as my Rockshox Super Deluxe Coil. I have a carbon Transition Sentinel V2 carbon and love it, but also realized carbon is over rated and aluminum frames are great. The Relay corners amazing and once I got used to the extra weight, I found it more confidence expiring on jumps! I have ridden everything from cross country to double black diamond trails and this bike handles it all with ease. You can’t go wrong with this bike unless you want a full power eMTB.

Bought one through LBS two months ago, they gave me a discount too so it was 4500 , then my state has an EBike rebate (many do) so bike was 4150 for me. I have heard of others getting deals on bikes through the lbs over order direct recently , worthy of checking out at least.

I would definitely save up and get the next level up to pnw alloy. Carbon would be better, but I like having 2 kidneys.

Any idea what the weight difference is comparing alloy frame to carbon frame? Thx

Was going buy relay but price still high opp out for rocky instinct powerplay .. but nice bike 😢

Performance of nx is not noticed with the drive system if properly tuned. Not like a regular bike where you get such massive improvement. Durability is questionable maybe. Weight doesnt matter things a tank 😂 wear it out swap it when you find a sale.

Rocky Mt or Intense Carbon Ebike on sale for $4k?

NX ? Why not use the Shimano Cues?

NX? Hell no. My Fuel EXe 8 was on sale for the same price with full XT. The Relay should at least be specd with GX.
