Expirience with the Transition Sentinel Alloy NX

Ludwig Döhl You love to ride your bike on very demanding single trails? Then the Sentinel Alloy NX and you could become friends. With a 63,6 degree head tube angle and a reach that tends to be long you can certainly speak of a modern geometry. The balanced seating position is likely to suite the taste of the majority of bikers. When viewing the 16,2 kg, its apparent: there are lighter Enduros in this price range.
