2018 Transition Patrol NX Build

2018 Transition Patrol Medium MX Build Bought new 6/23/19. $3100 or best offer.

After being dubbed "Mountain Bike of the Year" just last season, the 2018 Transition Patrol NX
Complete Mountain Bike needed little refinement. Yet being the tinkerers that they are, the team
at Transition has further developed the Patrol to continue pushing the boundaries of a long travel
trail bike. Incorporating new Speed Balanced Geometry (SBG), this year's Patrol boasts even more
control, confidence, and party! What is SBG? Transition combines a slacker head tube angle with a
new, reduced-offset fork standard -- it may sound minute, but the difference is plenty evident in the
saddle. Top this bad boy off with the simple and reliable 1x NX groupset and we can guarantee that
the powerful, versatile Transition Patrol NX Complete Mountain Bike will completely evolve the way
you look at trails.

Frame/Shock
Speed Balanced Geometry – SBG 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.
GiddyUp 2.0HH Suspension – Building 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.
RockShox Deluxe RT – How do you improve on the success of a rear shock that has received
critical acclaim for its stellar performance and supple feel? It’s simple. You rewrite the rules, throw
existing design constraints out the window and focus solely on the best possible performance
solution. RockShox took the proven damping performance of their popular Monarch series and
introduced it to a new metric-sized chassis. The result is truly Deluxe, ready to redefine your ride.

Race Face Æffect Crankset – The Æffect crankset is designed to handle aggressive trail riding at
a XC crank weight and attractive pricepoint. Featuring the Cinch System with its interchangeable
spider options and trusted 24mm EXI interface spindle, the Æffect is a rock solid crankset for
today's modern XC and trail rider.
SRAM NX 11-Speed X-ACTUATION™ Trigger Shifter – The SRAM NX trigger shifter with X-
ACTUATION™ technology gives you sharp, dependable shifting. Built for precise and swift
shifting across SRAM's wide range 11-speed cassette, the NX trigger shifter brings industry
changing technology to everyone.
SRAM NX 11-Speed X-HORIZON™ Rear Derailleur – The SRAM NX X-HORIZON™ rear
derailleur provides the same smooth, reliable shifting action as XX1—from the larger upper

pulley offset to the 12-tooth X-SYNC™ pulley wheels. By eliminating unwanted chain
movement, X-HORIZON™ shifts faster, puts an end to ghost shifting and reduces shift force and
chain slap. And with CAGE LOCK™ technology, wheel removal and installation are easier than
ever.
SRAM PG-1130 Cassette – The PG-1130 cassette is light, durable and equipped with SRAM’s
super wide 11-42 gear range that’s a perfect fit for any ride. Personalize your wide range gearing
with one of eight available X-SYNC™ chainrings.
SRAM PC-1110 Chain – Designed from a long line of dependable, lightweight chains that are
built for toughness. Designed with SRAM’s trusted XX1 geometry, the PC-1110 features solid
pin construction, 11-speed PowerLock® and smooth, efficient shifting that you can count on
every time out.
Brakes
SRAM Level T Brakeset – Level T capitalizes on the same trail-taming brake technology that
conquered the 2015 World Mountain Bike Championships, to deliver a powerful and consistent
XC and trail-optimized brake set that keeps your capital in the bank. This budget-minded,
MatchMaker™ compatible brake set provides all the power of its siblings, keeping you in
complete control.
SRAM Centerline Rotors – The new Centerline rotor was designed to keep the center of friction
consistent throughout rotation, thereby minimizing vibration offering consistent performance and
a quiet ride.
Wheelset
Maxxis Minion DHF EXO Dual | Front Tire – The Minion DHF was designed for the often loose
and muddy conditions of aggressive all-mountain terrain. The DHF incorporates ramped knobs
for low rolling resistance and channel-cut knobs to increase gripping edges, giving straight-line
control and precise cornering.
Maxxis Minion DHR II EXO Dual | Rear Tire – The trail version of the Maxxis Minion DHR II
features the same tread pattern as its downhill counterpart, but uses a single-ply casing to reduce
weight. With side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, but widened to provide
more support, the DHR II corners like no other. The center tread features ramped knobs to
improve acceleration and sipes to create a smooth transition when leaning the bike. Paddle-like
knobs on the center tread dig in under hard braking and help keep the bike under control. Pair it
with a Minion DHF up front for the ultimate aggressive trail riding tire combo!

Additional Features
RaceFace Æffect Dropper Seatpost – Introducing the cable actuated, hydraulic cartridge Æffect
Dropper Post, a budget friendly but rock solid option for riders wanting to enter the dropper
market. A sealed damping system wrapped in 7075 aluminium makes for a lightweight dropper
that can take the hits. Internal cable routing compatible for modern frame design.
