Transition DH prototype

THATS SWEET! I'm going to start saving right now.
Definitely more aesthetically pleasing than the Blindside. Is Sternberg already riding it?
Hex rear axle end, wonder if Manitou are cool with that.
Tidy looking bike.
Looks like it's made with Specialized tubing, by Giant.

It's not a hex axle
hmmm specss?
that thing looks hella sick linkage single pivot is the way foward
Unless it's a 6 position chain stay length adjuster(doubt it, too small a range), it sure looks like a hexagonal axle head to me.Obviously not the whole axle is hex shaped.
Looks like it might have a tapered headtube, Cool. Good for slight head angle adjustment.

Any guess on the price?
Maybe it's just a big custom nut that the axle screws into from the non drive side
Prototype definitely, one milion $
oster_oops:
True, that'd be a good idea, and having looked closer, I'm sure I can actually see the round axle.
must be a b***ch to access the rebound dial on that thing.
that looks super sick....like an uber simplified old school DHR...looks promising
That this looks super clean, really good simple lines. Just wish we could see exactly what's going on behind that seat tube arch.
Cool, the TR450. I do like the cable routing on the chainstay.
clean looking bike. Interesting linkage.
Am I the only one that thinks it looks like a low budget Session 88. I don't mean it in a bad way, if anything it's a plus.

Wow... That looks really good. I hope they stick to basic colours like black and white when it goes into production. It's probably just me, but I think Transition really needs to stop trying to add weirder and weirder colours to their frames, just to be different.
not a fan of the name...we all voted it to be stat
reminded me more of this
I know what it looks like... it looks like the new Transition prototype
Me likey nice clean and uncluttered... Dosnt even look flexy

I talked to Lars at PA last weekend he hinted at a new bike he's been working with them on. He said he should be riding one pretty soon.
I think it looks mighty fine. I'm gonna guess everyone is going to get one just like the blindside. Those things multiplied like bunnies.

The weird thing is, even though there are tons of blindsides out there. It's really hard to find one used.
That's because:
They're not the best, but they're fantastic bikes and;
They're cheap for what you get, so people know that if you to sell in a market like we have right now, you'd get pennies on the dollar for it.
This bike is a big evolutionary jump for Transition IMO. All of their bikes have been relatively primative as far as the tubing goes. It's more current and up to date...
I think it looks great!

That's what I was kind of hopping for. A blindside for pennies
3 weeks!!
Kyle,
Not bad, not bad at all, looks like new wheels as well...

i was gonna say kevin hinted at that a while back (the new DH frame), i think about 6 months ago.
