That is exactly what I was looking for as well, i plan to do some distance rides on this bike with full seat extension...I will post a lenghty ongoing review soon.atrokz said:cough *nicolai helius fr LT * cough.
I kid I kid, nice bike. I want something similar next season. Tell me how it does on the trails with the seat extended though, as I'm looking for something that 'does it all' but leans towards jumping.
yes heavy, the frame without shock is 8 lbs...they werent trying to play the weight game with this one...untitledsince89 said:ahhh I want one, If I wasn't racing dh next season I'd be all over this. Any idea what the final build wieght is going to be? I heard heavy but idk how much
thus why i have shimano...damn money...Bicyclist said:Yeah. I would build it Shimano if it were me, but only 'cause I can't afford an XO.
mine is a med I am 5'10 and couldnt find a better fitting ride...Weight i am going to say is around 36-38 i would like to build one with some superlight parts (x.o bits, mavic crossmax xl's, dhx air, light bars and braks) but budget wont allow...DirtBag said:Just received an e-mail from Kyle. I had inquired to see what was left in a medium. Turns out they have the black (which I wanted) available. Should be shipped out this week. Here is the planned build spec:
Fox Van RC2
DeeTrack Wheelset
Hone crankset, 2-ring with e-13 DRS
Hayes (El Caminos or HFX-9) Have both, not sure yet
Truvativ Hussefelt bar/stem
FSA 1.5 Reducing headset
Manhattan - What size is yours and what is the estimated weight?
dude the frame is built to be ridden at 8 lbs without shock...Bicyclist said:A bit porky, but not too bad I guess.
TWISTED said:The Transition Bottle Rockets are hella nice bikes. I know a couple guys who rode them at Crankworx. The bike seemed well suited to the big rough course.
Would I be an a-hole for hijacking this thread and posting new MC Battery slopestyle photos?
Noway man post pics of the bottlerockets and Batteries...I would love to see them, i was initially going to get the MC but it fell through...TWISTED said:The Transition Bottle Rockets are hella nice bikes.

from match site. looks dope, i thought it was his own creation. rear swingarm looks like the MC one. maybe the tonic guys can helpufdff15 said:Is that what Carter Holland was riding at Crankworx?
It almost looks like a pearl white in that picture.bjanga said:Dude I think the pink will be sweet. More subtle than neon/bright pink.
d00d,, you should soooo be on CSI....mandown said:*edit* - guess the "large pink" text in the corner confirms my guess.
I doubt that is an MC, it is the MC design but not under the MC name, you will see another manufacturer selling this bike in the near future...Stoked said:from match site. looks dope, i thought it was his own creation. rear swingarm looks like the MC one. maybe the tonic guys can help
