Transition Bikes PBJ
The bike industry is a bit strange these times, with availability of any type of bike a major challenge. How it normally works is the media requests a bike model to test with the brand. They’d be happy to send the bike out, and after a few weeks of riding, razzin’ and evaluation the bike is returned to the brand.…
Transition Bikes Patrol 2
The Patrol has been on a wish list of mine for a good while now, having first had a drool over it a couple of years ago when the brand brought it to the European stage at Eurobike. The Covert was previously a key player in the Transition line-up, an all-mountain rig that became the trusted favourite of many a…
Transition Bikes Covert26 3
We’ve always had a bit of a love affair for this bike in the office; it’s taken us down the Mega Avalanche in the past and been a bike that has featured as a long-term test rig too. This year the Covert has had a bit of a makeover in terms of the pivot placements in the suspension set up…
Transition Bikes Bandit 29er
The Bandit 29er is the first 29inch wheeled bike from the clever folk at Transiton. I was lucky enough to be one of the first people to ride the bike when it came into the country, and although the love affair was just a few short weeks, I spent them wisely thrashing it at every opportunity. Tech Heads The Bandit…
Transition Bikes Covert 2
I chose this bike as my do-it-all machine for the year, I got to ride last years bike at the Megavalanche and round Scotland very briefly and agreed with our test teams verdict that it really is a do it all machine. I had a DH bike with me for the Alps trip last year, but ended up just riding…
Transition Bikes Bandit
The Bandit was a totally new bike for Transition in 2011; it is a lightweight trail bike, aimed at being the perfect tool to ride up and down the mountain. It’s big brother, the Covert, comes spec’d with Fox 36’s up front and while it can be pedalled anywhere it can’t compete effectively in the popular 140mm travel trail bike…
Transition Bikes Covert
We loved the 2010 version of this bike, and with the Megavalanche looming felt there was no better bike to take with us. Nimble, fast and light for its travel the Covert is a true do it all machine. Perfectly happy railing singletrack as it is hammering down rock sections. It goes uphill pretty well too! The frame offers 150mm…
Transition Bikes Covert
Our Covert came in a cracking green colour that looked so much better in the flesh than we were expecting. Clean, simple lines hint at a no nonsense approach to bike building and that is exactly what you get from Transition. ‘Rider owned for life’ is the motto and all their bikes are designed and tested in house by people…
