2010 Transition TR250

Hi,

Selling a 2010 Transition TR250 that was bought in 2011. The bike has had barely any use over the past two years so you may as well call it 3 years old! I love the bike and really don't want to sell it but I'm moving away for a year or so and it really doesn't make sense to have it sitting in the garage for that long with absolutely no use.

TR250s are on the small side - this is a medium, so the general advice is that if a small fits you on most bikes, a medium 250 is for you. However, I'm around 5'11 or so and love the smaller size as it's easy to throw about, nice and "flickable"! I've never been in a situation where it felt like the bike couldn't handle any more, it's so fun and fast, takes anything you throw at it and it'll keep you pushing for more. It's impossible to keep the wheels on the ground! I reckon a smaller rider with a decent set of lungs could fit a dropper post to it and ride it up as well - you'll not be the fastest up the hill but you'll get a good headstart as you'll smoke your friends on the downhil! As I said, I really don't want to sell it and will probably search for another one when I get home!
