Transition Bottle Rocket Medium I have owned this bike for just over 5 years, used on and off throughout this time but has been well looked after. Sad to see it go but have got another bike so this won’t see much use anymore. Good bits: Really fun bike to ride, perfectly balanced and capable on all kinds of trails, floats over technical rocky sections, corners really well, and I can’t stress how much pop you get off even the slightest root/bump. Really effortless to control in the air and feels very comfortable over big doubles (it is intended as a freeride bike). Amazing how many people notice it out on the trail, always get compliments and seems to be a very popular and uncommon bike you don’t see every day. Also the rear hub is incredibly loud and really screams when you are up to speed. Weighs 15.0kg Bits to note: When I bought the frame I got the forks at the same time and steerer wasn’t quite long enough, so I got a short stack headset and stem. The steerer comes up to about the halfway mark on the top bolt of the stem and I’ve never had any issues with it. One of the brake mount threads on the fork has been mangled a bit, it grips on just fine but when I went to upgrade to a 180mm rotor I couldn’t get it to hold, but with the correct length bolt this shouldn’t be an issue. Nothing else to note really, usual scratches and cable rub, but actually really good condition overall, and not even marks on the chainstay.
