The Scout is a poppy, fun bike that will remind you why you got into mountain biking! Paired with a burly Fox 36 Rythm fork, this is one of the most entertaining and capable bikes out there.
Out of the box, the bike is set up with a 140 mm shock, but you can change the rear shock for a longer one to run the back end at 150 mm. The frame will be happy with a fork between 140 and 160 mm.
Transition have given the longer-lower-slacker approach a name - "Speed Balanced Geometry" - but effectively it means a longer top tube and slack head angle, ready to run a short stem and short offset fork, pretty much what you would expect from any modern enduro-orientated bike. On that note, all models can take a water bottle, though you'll need to use a fid lock bottle on the size XS frame.
Never ones to shy away from a cheesy name, the Scouts "GiddyUp" suspension has fantastic small bump sensitivity and enough progression to run a coil shock without blowing through the travel. The Enduro MAX bearings and additional bearing shields are a huge plus point for UK riding!
The alloy NX model has a solid spec, with a OneUp dropper sized depending on frame size, Flow rims, and Fox Performance shock.

Pedals
Since most people would change their pedals from whatever the manufacturer supplied, very few bike manufacturers supply pedals with new bikes.
The good news is we have an awesome selection of both flat and clipless pedals!
