Retaining all of the same geometry and 160mm of travel as the alloy Patrol, Transition's newest carbon model drops 1.3 kg off of the frame weight and arrives as a mixed-wheel model dedicated to the mullet lifestyle.
Find out how it performed out on the trails in Bellingham, Washington.

Levy's been doing a great job of facilitating all of these. Asking the right questions to open up the other two, and commenting on the answers in a way that I'm sure a lot of us are thinking. All of it comes off really natural and genuine. I'm happy with my bike and don't live where an enduro bike would be appropriate, but I'm still watching these because I feel like it helps me learn more about bikes, and Levy's been a big part of that through this presentation style.

@jarnold1789 Год назад

He’s fantastic, these videos wouldn’t be the same without him. Love him and the three test riders, great crew

@LastAphelion Год назад

@@jarnold1789 Yeah I don't understand the constant comments attacking the commentators on a personal level, I want to chew them all out. They provide the information I seek in a great way. People act wild like they expect every presenter to be a Saturday Night Live personality or something. I'd love to see the same comment critiquers try to talk through their own youtube video I bet they'd all sound dead, flat, and boring having never practiced presenting content.

@walterbrown6388 Год назад

Levy!!! - Great job on the questions. This video seemed to have more of those deeper questions than the others. Deeper into the shock pressures, timed testing results vs. ride feel, reasons for differences in timed testing results, brake performance. Looking forward to the round tables. Great Stuff.

I didn’t think I would notice the smaller wheel lack of roll over as much as I did. Mullet was quicker, 29er faster. After back to backs, I ended up 29er. I would pick mullet in smoother trails.

@chriswoodard8813 Год назад

Is this bike between the Bronson and new Nomad MX bikes?

@jessehill3780 Год назад

This really makes me wish the Nomad made it to the test. The numbers are really close to the Patrol so I wonder how it compares. I’ve got three rides on mine and really like it but I was looking at a Patrol for quiet some time, if they had the carbon out last year I may have done it.

@TFritz82 Год назад

I was thinking the same thing at the onset of this series. A few of these bikes compare pretty favorably to the new Nomad being mixed wheeled, similar geometry specs, travel and whatnot! I've got a V6 frameset coming soon and can't wait to get it built up and give it a rip!

@jessehill3780 Год назад

@karinepotvin4095 Год назад

Hello, great review. The question was asked patrol or spire the answer was more for the patrol because of the mullet. The follow up question is, what if you mullet the spire Would that be the dream bike?

What fork & shock are you running? And do you flip the geo switch for park riding? I ride a lot of tech at parks and would worry about making the bottom bracket even lower than it already is in high geo.

@mchong91 Год назад

@@307.William exactly what you said... you compromise the lively feeling of the bike to have more DH traits... being able to plow through things... so yes, can slow you down on the flats but gives higher speed in the tech.

@@mchong91 I still run my float X2. I’d like to try a coil but I’m already around 39lbs with DH rear tire and inserts. What happens to me is I’ll be hauling ass on a horse trail and hit a section that was crusty mud once. With all the hoof prints, holes and rocks I feel like my rear end slows me down. I would hope this link helps with that. I don’t like throwing money at a problem that is really a characteristic of the bike

Matt does NOT want to commit does he? 'If you were turning up to an enduro race, is this the bike you'd pick? Cue 'waffle, waffle, not really, but I'm not going to give a firm opinion'. Funny to hear while also frustrating, but I guess that's what the Round Table is for...

@toxicsnail4197 Год назад

Why would a smaller wheel have less traction when climbing like mentioned at 2:45? If the tire and width is the same, how is a slightly bigger wheel going to have any influence on grip?

@blairburton1234 Год назад

Surface area

@thermonuculur Год назад

@@blairburton1234 Not quite as simple as "more surface area" since the tire can flex under your weight. The contact patch ends up being about the same for 27.5 and 29" tires of about the same width and pressure after the tire deforms. (research this for race car tires to find out why wider isn't always way better) Rollover is arguably better for a 29er vs 27.5, the biggest benefit of a 29er setup, which also helps the suspension not have to work quite as hard to maintain wheel-ground contact.
