2008 NOS Transition Blindside 26” DH Small

NOS 2008 Transition Blindside 26” DH bike. Size is a Small, yet, speaking for myself, at 5’ 10” it fits me well. This bike is particularly able to whip the tight steep stuff, jumps and handles absolutely solid. This is a full custom build from a frameset purchased in 2008, it’s nickname is “The Saint”. It’s a size small frame, yet it rides like some of my other size medium frames. This bike is a pristine NOS bike with updated brakes and is ready to ride. Or, if you’re a collector of DH bikes, this is a great opportunity to get a sweet ride that more or less fell out of a time capsule. It rides super plush. It’s amazingly clean, no scuffs nor grease on the bashguard and there’s only a couple very small scuffs on the left side fork lower. Stanchions are very clean. All original manuals and the complete original 2008 Transition Blindside decal set are included.
