Expirience with the Transition Scout Carbon NX

Ludwig Döhl The 150 mm trail on the fork qualify the Transition Fully for on demanding trails use. The handling of this bike remains balanced thanks to a moderate geometry. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. If you love flying down steep, rocky and loamy trails, the Transition Scout Carbon NX doesn't really suit you. Other manufacturers build All Mountain in the same price range that are more focused on descends.
