2018 XL Transition Sentinel, bought new from EVO Denver 1 year ago. I am a professional bike mechanic, and this bike has been kept running extremely well. Transition's Speed Balanced Geometry is no joke, and this bike descends better than many bikes of more travel. The long reach, slack head angle, steep seat tube angle, and shortened fork offset combine to create a bike that is extremely stable at speed, while remaining nimble and easy to maneuver up technical climbs. I love this bike, and I'm only selling it to upgrade to a carbon-framed version. The XL size should work great for anyone 6 ft and taller—I'm 6'1" and it feels perfect for me. All parts are stock, except for Specialized Butcher tires and Sensus grips. Pedals not included, buyer pays shipping.

Please feel free to text me (4152726626) with any questions or requests for additional pictures!

Full parts list, with parts condition noted.

Frame: Sentinel Alloy XL, 140mm Rear, 160mm Front. Cosmetic scratches and paint chips are pictured, all from shuttling (top tube scratch is from a friend's brake lever), rock strikes, or chainslap. Pivots run smooth, with no play—They have been freshly greased and torqued to spec, as of August 4. No dents or structural damage.

Fork: Rockshox Lyrik, w/ Charger Damper. Serviced last spring, feels great currently. Due for a rebuild in a few months.

Shock: Fox DPX2. Serviced last spring, also feels great. Due for a rebuild in a couple months.

Stem: Raceface Aeffect.

Handlebar: Raceface Chester 35. Small cosmetic scratches.

Grips: Sensus Disisdaboss

Saddle: ANVL Forge Cromo. Slight creak when weight is placed on the nose of the saddle, but other than that has been pretty comfortable for me!

Seatpost: Rockshox Reverb Stealth. Works well, I've had no issues with it in a year of use.

Brakes: SRAM Code R. Both brakes have been bled recently (end of July) and are working perfectly. Another bleed is probably in order in a couple months.

Drivetrain: SRAM GX Eagle. The drivetrain is currently shifting flawlessly, but the chain should probably be replaced soon—it's nearing 70% wear. The cassette and chainring will likely last through the lifetime of 1 more chain. The cranks and the derailleur have some scratches, but nothing that impacts the bike's performance.

Wheelset: E*Thirteen TRS rims laced to Novatec hubs. The rear rim has a few dents, and is not perfectly true, but I recently re-tensioned all the spokes and breathed a good amount of life back into the wheel. It seats up Tubeless with no issues, and responds well on the trail. The largest dent is pictured, the others are smaller and harder to see in photos. Both hubs have performed flawlessly, and the front wheel remains true and dent-free.

Tires: Specialized Butcher 2.6, BLK DMND rear, GRID front. Both tires have >80% of their life left in them. They're great aggressive trail tires, and corner so well!
