Product Info

There are somewhere around none to zero bikes that make as much sense as the Transition Scout Alloy GX Complete Mountain Bike. This is a modern trail bike in every sense, with 140/150mm of travel on an excellent suspension platform and a supremely capable SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain. The geo is spot-on to handle everything from a spandex ride on doubletrack to a flannel-clad shuttle day. Really: this is as versatile a bike as we've ever seen, and one that can handle 99% of riding situations. You cannot go wrong with a Scout.

Product Details

Frame/Shock

6061 Aluminum Alloy FrameKnown for its durability, strength, and ride quality, aluminum is real!

Speed Balanced GeometrySBG ensures the bike maintains low speed agility, front wheel traction, and proper rider weight balance while actually increasing confidence in steep terrain and at high speeds. With SBG, a slacker head tube angle is combined with an all new reduced offset fork standard, preventing the front wheel from being too far in front of the rider. This improves front to rear weight distribution on the bike, which is often out of balance on long and slack bikes. One of SBG's greatest benefits is that it creates a confident steering feel that adapts to wheel speed. More stability when going fast, more agility on technical slow speed maneuvering as well as improved traction, control and confidence for any skill level of rider.

GiddyUp 2.0HH SuspensionBuilding upon the success of Transition's original GiddyUp suspension design, the new GiddyUp 2.0HH system has been refined for the modern two-wheel cowboy delivering a slightly firmer feel for more efficient pedaling, as well as more progressive travel that provides that extra little bit of bottom-out support when needed.

Fox Float X Performance Elite Rear ShockDesigned specifically to meet the demands of aggressive trail riders, the new Float X combines sophisticated damping and fade free performance with incredible light weight and outstanding structural integrity.

Badass BearingsEnduroMAX suspension pivot specific bearings come in standard sizes that are readily available worldwide.

Frame ProtectionFully integrated, flush-mounted rubber frame protection on the chainstay and downtube keep your bike rides quiet and your frame safe from damage.

Pivot TechnologyCollet main pivot technology improves rear end stiffness and keeps hardware tight. Bearing shields prevent main pivot contamination from water.

Threaded Bottom BracketA standard 73mm threaded bottom bracket shell makes crankset maintenance hassle-free and prevents unwanted pressfit BB noises.

User Friendly Cable RoutingTo simplify maintenance and keep your bike noise free, the rear derailleur cable is routed through guide tubes in the front triangle and chainstay.

Water Bottle CompatibilityYour water bottle is kept clean inside the front triangle so you can keep hydrated without worrying about mud making it to your mouth.

Fork

Fox Float 36 Grip 2 Performance ElitePerformance Elite forks retain the same adjustments, dampers, weight, and 7000 series aluminum upper tubes as Factory Series, but have black anodized upper tubes instead of Genuine Kashima Coat. In other words, this fork is as good as it gets!

Drive Train

SRAM GX EagleGX Eagle is your partner for all rides, all the time, all day. Long days, quick rides and everything in-between, GX Eagle is the ecosystem at its best. With the all new 520% range, all new colorways and seamless compatibility with the rest of the ecosystem, GX Eagle is there to maximize the potential of your ride experience.

Brakes

TRP DH-R-EvoThe DH-R Evo brings maximum power, unparalleled modulation and optimized heat management to heavy 29er DH bikes, long travel enduro rigs and the new era of E-MTB charging. A new caliper, new lever, new hose, new oil, new pads, new 223/2.3mm rotors and a new hydraulic leverage ratio, creates a new performance standard that fuels the TRP brand.

Wheelset

DT Swiss M1900 Splinefter a long climb, the perfect trail lies ahead of your tires: flowy, dusty, varied, endless. Nothing holds you back from entering the All Mountain thrills with the M 1900 SPLINE. A rim developed with optimal balance of durability and weight offers efficient climbing characteristics as well as dent resistance on single trails. Thanks to the new Ratchet LN system and experienced wheel building by hand, this wheel is a reliable partner to collect freewheeling moments in the mountains.

Maxxis Assegai Front TireThe Maxxis Assegai tire is named after the iron-tipped spear used by the Zulu people of South Africa. Greg Minnaar, a native of South Africa, thought it was a fitting name for a tire ready to do battle on the mountain. The tall knobs punch through dust and loam to find traction, but also offer support and confidence on wet roots and rocks. While other tires excel only in certain conditions, the new Maxxis Assegai is built to go fast everywhere.

Maxxis Minion DHR II Rear TireWith side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, but widened to provide more support, the DHR II corners like no other. The center tread features ramped leading edges to improve acceleration and sipes to create a smooth transition when leaning the bike. Paddle-like knobs on the center tread dig in under hard braking and help keep the bike under control. Pair it with a Minion DHF up front for the ultimate aggressive trail riding tire combo!

Additional Features

OneUp Dropper PostKnown for its no-nonsense smooth cable actuation, short overall length, and easy serviceability, the OneUp Dropper is a solid choice for dependable and customizable performance.
