Expirience with the Transition Sentinel Carbon GX

Ludwig Döhl When it comes to riding on moderate runs, the Transition Sentinel Carbon GX feels really good. With 14,2 kg, the Transition Sentinel Carbon GX counts towards the lighter bikes in this price range. The competitors are sometimes heavier. If you ride super fast on tricky singletrails, you will love the calm handling of the Enduro of Transition. Anyone who has no special preferences for the seating position can´t go wrong with the Transition Fully. Because the saddle takes the balanced approach. But let´s not forget: The geometry shows the know-how of the Transition engineers. For 6199 Euro , other manufacturers deliver geometries with less potential.
