Speed Balanced Geometry SBG ensures the bike maintains low speed agility, front wheel traction, and proper rider weight balance while actually increasing confidence in steep terrain and at high speeds. With SBG, a slacker head tube angle is combined with a all new reduced offset fork standard, preventing the front wheel from being too far in front of the rider. This improves front to rear weight distribution on the bike, which is often out of balance on long and slack bikes. One of SBG's greatest benefits is that it creates a confident steering feel that adapts to wheel speed. More stability when going fast, more agility on technical slow speed maneuvering as well as improved traction, control and confidence for any skill level of rider.

GIDDYUP 2.0HH SUSPENSION

Take our successful GiddyUp suspension system, add one part increased pedaling efficiency, two parts wider sag range, and three parts increased small bump sensitivity, and you get GiddyUp 2.0HH. Incredible pedaling performance balanced with a superb neutral, comfortable and fun feel that we're known for.

We specifically tuned the suspension with a moderate amount of chain growth which is highest at the sag point and decreasing deeper into the travel. Because of this finely tuned wheel path, there is a notable increase in traction when climbing, without the rider noticing the chain growth fighting the suspension movement.

GiddyUp 2.0HH is extremely easy to setup and it provides excellent support throughout the entire stroke of the shock so you can use all your travel without worrying about bottom out. Designed to be active while climbing, rear shock climbing platforms are not necessary. The suspension remains free to smooth out the trail, improve traction and control without sacrificing efficiency. With GiddyUp 2.0HH you can focus on the trail, no remotes, levers or knobs. Just grab your bike and GiddyUp.

"I like to think of the Scout as a modern freeride bike. Sure, the word 'freeride' usually conjures up clips of riders hucking cliffs to flat in full-face helmets, but for most of us, freeride is a blend of attempting trickery on low-consequence trail features, and occasionally rolling into something that pushes our limits. I found that the Scout is consistently up for whatever: steep rock rolls, sketchy drops, gratuitous manuals, log jibs, abubacas on grassy banks and, of course, just regular riding. No flip chip needed." - Bike Magazine Click here for the full review

"Few, if any, bikes in this travel class can match this bike's sky-high fun factor. The Scout punches far above its weight class on the descent and is not shy when pointed down fairly rowdy trails. Oh yeah, it also rails berms and flow trails with a balanced feel in the air.

The Transition Scout GX is a killer trail bike with an attitude. This bicycle offers a supremely fun ride and makes sense in many applications. Downhill performance is aggressive and stable. The Scout can punch far above its weight class thanks to its mini-enduro feel. The climbing abilities are good enough to get you on top of any climb. This fun-loving, aggressive, trail bike sells for a reasonable $3999 with stellar component, we love it." - Outdoor Gear Lab Click here for the full review

"Transition lives by the slogan "Engineered to party," and the Scout is the life of the party when the trail points down. The 27.5-inch wheels and mid-level travel gave the Scout a lively and playful feel that we would expect from any bike Transition designs. With the suspension wide open, the Scout tracked the trail confidently and the Maxxis Minion tires gave our test riders all the traction they needed. The rear suspension was active and plush and felt like it was giving more than 130mm of travel. We appreciated every bit of the progressive geometry, especially the longer and lower position" - Mountain Bike Action Magazine Click here for the full review
