Transition TransAM 2012
What Transition Say:
Everybody will agree that riding hardtails will make you a better rider and are super fun to rail singletrack, which is why almost everyone at Transition rides one. Designed to tame XC trails as well as aggressive all mountain lines, the TransAM begs for epic rides and quick rips after work. Throw in the ability to run singlespeed or gears and you have one of our most versatile bikes that will improve your bike handling skills dramatically. Getting back to the roots of mountain biking and actually feeling the trail is what all mountain hardtails mean to us. Of course we choose 4130 butted chromoly for this frame as it gives you unsurpassed trail feel. The ability to accelerate and pedal with the ultimate responsiveness while eating up the vibrations of rough trails is just one of the many reasons steel is our only choice. We finish the frame off with a 44mm headtube so you can run tapered forks, a custom seat tube so you can run adjustable posts, new 12x142mm dropouts for a super stiff rear end and our ED internal coating to protect the inside of the tubes from moisture. This is no ordinary steel frame.
What We Say:
Who said hardtails were dead? In our opinion they are the best they have ever been and more people should ride them. The Transition TransAM is the perfect example of what a well thought out hardtail can do. It can be ridden on all day XC rides, messing around at the local Downhill track or Dirt Jumping. Costing a fraction of the cost of the equivalent full susser, and a tonne of fun.
