Transition Blindside 2012

What Transition Say:

We call the Blindside a Big All Mountain bike designed to be a versatile big travel bike. With a front derailleur setup to get you to the summit and up to 190mm of adjustable rear travel so you can take on any downhill. The Blindside's versatility is quite surprising as the bike can pedal extremely well, is nimble on singletrack and jumps and can eat up rough DH style trails. The suspension utilizes a large 2.75" stroke shock for low leverage and features a slightly progressive leverage rate curve that gives excellent consistent leverage throughout the travel allowing the natural progressiveness of the shock to ramp up perfectly. The frames features our own custom formed tubeset with internal gussets and a slimmed down rear triangle with internal cable routing for a clean look.

What We Say:

The Transition Blindside is a long travelled bike designed for shredding the Downhill runs or hitting the biggest jumps and drops: But with the added benefit of having 20 gears for climbing back to the top do do it all over again. If you believe you should earn your 'air time', then the Blindside will climb, then shred all day long.
