Transition Patrol Alloy GX Mountain Bike

The mixed wheel Patrol has a new haircut but is still down for anything and truly unapologetic when it comes to shredding trail. Being one of the longest standing bikes in our lineup, it was the obvious choice to mix it up. Updated geometry to accommodate the 29" front / 27.5" rear wheels and revised suspension tune might just make you ride all day, and then all night. Jibbing, jumping, pumping and hooting your way down the trail, the updated Patrol loves to party. From bike parks to your local trails, the Patrol isn't concerned with where you ride but rather how much fun you are having. F Frame Material - The Patrol carbon uses premium Japanese Toray fiber using a unique latex coated EPS molding process to create tighter edge radius control using less material. The Patrol alloy features a frame made from tough and dependable heat treated 6061 aluminum to strike the right balance of strength, durability and ride quality. Pivot Technology - Collet main pivot technology improves rear end stiffness and keeps your pivot hardware tight. Additional bearing shields prevent main pivot bearing contamination when washing your bike or riding in wet conditions. Frame Protection In addition to downtube and seatstay protection, the ribbed chainstay protector features expanded coverage of the rear dropout pivot area. Geo Adjust Chip - Change the attitude of the bike with a simple flip of a chip. Our high and low settings give you two very usable geo settings to suite your riding style. Our high setting is comparable to most other companies low setting so there is a high shred warning in effect. Size Specific Chainstays - The Patrol has two size specific chainstay lengths to provide balanced handling and rider weight distribution across the range of sizes. Enduro Max Bearings Dual bearings are used at the dropout pivots for frame stiffness and additional c-clips lock the rocker bearings in place under torsional loads. Gear Accessory Mount Dual Crown Fork Compatible - Both the carbon and alloy frame options are fully dual crown compatible for those wanting to dip their toes into the DH world. Tire Clearance - Ample clearance for mud and tires up to 2.6" width. User Friendly Cable Routing - To simplify maintenance and keep your bike noise free, the rear derailleur cable is routed through guide tubes in the front triangle and chainstay. Feature available on carbon framesets only. Press In Headset - Our ZS56/ZS56 press in headset gives you the freedom to use reach adjust and angle adjust headsets for maximum adjustability. Adjustable headsets are not supplied with Patrol framesets or complete bikes. Water Bottle Compatibility Universal Derailleur Hanger - The Patrol features a SRAM Universal Derailleur Hanger that protects your derailleur against chain jams by pivoting back and out of the way, and slips slightly when encountering impacts. It improves shifting performance, guarantees better alignment, works with all drivetrains and is available anywhere.
