The TR450 and the TR250 get bold new graphics and

• New ZS 44mm / ZS 56mm headtube size for larger lower bearing and easier headset sourcing

TR450

The TR450 also gets an Enduro MAX bearing spec for increased performance and durability.

Transition decided to put the Blindside and the Bottlerocket on haitus for the time being.  They’ve also created two new hardtails : The PB&J and the BLT

The PB&J – Pumps Bumps and Jumps

PB&J

• Short back end, taller seat tube and slacker head angle.

The BLT is the second new hardtail – Banks, Lips and Transfers…

Transition BLT

• Short back end, extra low standover and zero drop BB height with steeper head angle.
