We do not accept pre-orders for direct purchase, but you can sign up to be notified when an item comes back in stock. If you are a customer who is looking to order a bike through your local Transition dealer or through the Transition Factory Outpost Store you will want to reach out to them directly. We are not able to remove, substitute or modify any parts included with a frame or complete bike.
All parts specified will be included with your purchase. This bike is designed to work with both air and coil shocks. We know there are a lot of great shock options outside of what we spec, but we have worked extremely hard to develop the tune in our supplied shocks.
We believe they perform as good as anything else available in the aftermarket options. Transition Bikes is not responsible for any damage to a frame caused by a shock that we do not spec. To verify shock fitment please email us at info transitionbikes. Yes, the Spire alloy and the Spire carbon can run a dual crown fork, however the carbon version is not compatible with a 46mm offset RockShox Boxxer fork due to a drastically limited turning radius. Running 10mm more or less travel than stock is okay.
Any more than 10mm in either direction can negatively affect the handling. Yes, but this bike is built with SBG technology , which utilizes an offset in the range of mm. Running a fork with more or less offset would be taking away from the SBG technology package. We offer three ways to demo a bike. If you find yourself in Bellingham, you can follow this link to schedule a demo through the Outpost.
If you live somewhere else, you can follow this link to see what shops currently have demo bikes available. And finally, you can view our events page, located here to see which upcoming demo events we'll be participating in. We provide easy and affordable financing through our partner, Bread , so you can pay for your purchase over time. This option is only available in the USA at this time.
