 Compared to other companies, they are still new. For example, Specialized is a big company and isnt really growing anymore unlike transition

 I ever hear people complaint TR450 is so call "paper thin @ down tube area". I know 951 or session 88 are that kind of name? TR450 is a simple bike that for you go and ride it. They build it for the rider don't worry about and just go for ride bike.

Zoopla,
Could you show that kind of HUGE dent down tube @ the TR 450 to me?

 dents smchments! if u want a ride that doesn't dent get a Volvo - anyone who rides for real gets dents regardless of the thickness - and it's not about the dents it's about the frames lasting with or without dents; ANY and all DH bikes can get dents unless we come up with a material that is meant to be bullet proof armour.

 great bikes, only one problems...they are paper thin, all the tr450 i've seen have huge dents on the downtube. if they fix that by making the tubing a bit thicker, that would be a mean machine.

 I rode one all season...no dents. Every TR my shop built for people, no dents. Every TR i've seen...no dents. I don't know where you've seen all these dented downtubes, but i've seen about 20 TR's with no dents. sure rock chips, but not like the session dents

 looks like he's running over 50% rear sag, probably set up perfect for that track.

 It sucks that UCI didn't let the company films on the hill during the race runs, only from the bottom.

 The TR450 dents easily? That's news to me as well. I saw one that was heavily used and abused and it didn't have any dents.
