Product Info

Oh, Showcase Showdown! Before you even have time to think, there's a quick left turn that leads into a chunky traverse over the first rock roll. Feather your brakes a bit as you stretch up and peer over, looking to see if it goes. It does, you know it does, but it's always hard to avoid hesitation. By the time you're past the point of no return, you're bracing for the dirt ramp back onto the trail surface. It's gone, beaten down by a couple seasons of bottom-outs. You exhale as you smash through at warp speed, careening towards the next ridiculously steep triple-decker rocky chute-to-right handed catch berm. The Transition Spire Alloy GX Complete Mountain Bike was made for this trail: steep, rough, and fast. Hang on and let it flow.

Product Details

Frame/Shock

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

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 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.

Shock AdjustmentsIndependent Two Position Open / Firm Lever, Low Speed Rebound, Low Speed Compression

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.

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

Gear Accessory MountAn underside top-tube accessory mount allows you to carry a spare tube or other goodies safely on your frame.

Geo Adjust ChipChange the attitude of the bike with a simple flip of a chip. High and Low settings give you two very usable geo settings to suit your riding style: High is comparable to most other companies' low settings so there's a high shred warning in effect!

Size Specific ChainstaysThe Patrol has two size specific chainstay lengths to provide balanced handling and rider weight distribution across the range of sizes.

Dual Crown Fork CompatibleThis frame is fully dual crown compatible, for those wanting to dip their toes into the DH world.

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.

Universal Derailleur HangerSRAM's Universal Derailleur Hanger protects your derailleur against chain jams by pivoting back and out of the way, and slips slightly when encountering impacts. This improves shifting performance, guarantees better alignment, works with all drivetrains and is available anywhere.

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.

Fork

Fox 38 Performance EliteWhen you need to go really big, reach for the 38. Optimized for 160-180mm of travel and packing the same revolutionary feature set as the 36, the 38 redefines what you think a long travel single crown fork is capable of, and sets a new benchmark for confidence, performance, and durability. Welcome to the big time. This Performane Elite model boasts the same internals as the Factory level, just without the Kashima coated stanchions.
