Oh, Showcase Showdown! Before you even have time to think, there's a quick left turn that leads into a chunky traverse over the first rock roll. Feather your brakes a bit as you stretch up and peer over, looking to see if it goes. It does, you know it does, but it's always hard to avoid hesitation. By the time you're past the point of no return, you're bracing for the dirt ramp back onto the trail surface. It's gone, beaten down by a couple seasons of bottom-outs. You exhale as you smash through at warp speed, careening towards the next ridiculously steep triple-decker rocky chute-to-right handed catch berm. The Transition Spire Alloy GX Code Complete Mountain Bike was made for this trail: steep, rough, and fast. Hang on and let it flow.
6061 Aluminum Alloy Frame – Known for its durability, strength, and ride quality, aluminum is real!
RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate Shock – Designed for the latest hard-hitting enduro and trail bikes, Super Deluxe Ultimate features the ride tuning abilities of an air spring with both compression and rebound adjustment to fine tune to any trail. With a solid threshold adjustment for pedaling performance and Maxima Plush fluid for a buttery smooth feel, riders can now easily dial in a podium-worthy ride.
Shock Adjustments – Separate and Independent Open and Threshold Pistons / Low Speed Compression Adjustment / Rebound Adjustment / Air Spring Pressure
GiddyUp 2.0HH Suspension – Building upon the success of Transition's original GiddyUp suspension design, the new GiddyUp 2.0HH system has been refined for the modern two-wheel cowboy delivering a slightly firmer feel for more efficient pedaling, as well as more progressive travel that provides that extra little bit of bottom-out support when needed.
Speed Balanced Geometry – SBG ensures the bike maintains low speed agility, front wheel traction, and proper rider weight balance while actually increasing confidence in steep terrain and at high speeds. With SBG, a slacker head tube angle is combined with an all new reduced offset fork standard, preventing the front wheel from being too far in front of the rider. This improves front to rear weight distribution on the bike, which is often out of balance on long and slack bikes. One of SBG's greatest benefits is that it creates a confident steering feel that adapts to wheel speed. More stability when going fast, more agility on technical slow speed maneuvering as well as improved traction, control and confidence for any skill level of rider.
Pivot Technology – Collet main pivot technology improves rear end stiffness and keeps hardware tight. Bearing shields prevent main pivot contamination from water.
Gear Accessory Mount – An underside top-tube accessory mount allows you to carry a spare tube or other goodies safely on your frame.
Geo Adjust Chip – Change the attitude of the bike with a simple flip of a chip. High and Low settings give you two very usable geo settings to suit your riding style: High is comparable to most other companies' low settings so there's a high shred warning in effect!
Size Specific Chainstays – The Patrol has two size specific chainstay lengths to provide balanced handling and rider weight distribution across the range of sizes.
Dual Crown Fork Compatible – This frame is fully dual crown compatible, for those wanting to dip their toes into the DH world.
User Friendly Cable Routing – To simplify maintenance and keep your bike noise free, the rear derailleur cable is routed through guide tubes in the front triangle and chainstay.
Water Bottle Compatibility – Your water bottle is kept clean inside the front triangle so you can keep hydrated without worrying about mud making it to your mouth.
Universal Derailleur Hanger – SRAM's Universal Derailleur Hanger protects your derailleur against chain jams by pivoting back and out of the way, and slips slightly when encountering impacts. This improves shifting performance, guarantees better alignment, works with all drivetrains and is available anywhere.
Badass Bearings – EnduroMAX suspension pivot specific bearings come in standard sizes that are readily available worldwide.
Frame Protection – Fully integrated, flush-mounted rubber frame protection on the chainstay and downtube keep your bike rides quiet and your frame safe from damage.
RockShox ZEB Ultimate – ZEB Ultimate is a whole new breed of fork, designed to challenge the limits and take on the world’s toughest Enduro tracks. Going Ultimate has its advantages.

SwingLink™ and Lever Pivot Bearings ensure a smooth and progressive feel at the lever, while the additional 30% positive fluid volume ensures consistent performance even when braking harder, more frequently or with a heavier mass to slow down.
SRAM Centerline Rotor – The Centerline rotor was designed to keep the center of friction consistent throughout rotation, thereby minimizing vibration, offering consistent performance and a quiet ride.
Stan's NoTubes Flow S1 Wheelset – Burly enough to handle the toughest of trails yet light enough to pedal all day, the Flow S1 is up for any challenge. Developed from rims ridden in Red Bull Rampage and raced on the World Cup DH circuit for years, the S1 is now ready for action. With a 1.6mm deeper profile and reinforced rim walls the new Flow S1 offers greater impact strength, for an even wider range of use, with only a minor weight gain. Strong and light 6061 alloy rims, stainless steel rim eyelets, and easily replaceable standard spokes mean the Flow S1 is built to last. Combined with faster-engaging, CNC-machined Neo hubs, the Flow S1 is the ultimate trail, all-mountain, and enduro wheelset.
