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.
RockShox Deluxe RT Shock – How do you improve on the success of a rear shock that has received critical acclaim for its stellar performance and supple feel? It’s simple. You rewrite the rules, throw existing design constraints out the window, and focus solely on the best possible performance solution. We took the proven damping performance of our popular Monarch series and introduced it to our new metric-sized chassis. The result is truly Deluxe, ready to redefine your ride.
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.
Fork Adjustments – External Rebound, Low Speed Compression to Lockout, Air Spring Pressure
Rockshox Revelation RC – Revelation has grown, and after representing the original long travel forks, it’s ready to tackle the most demanding trail and enduro rides. The chassis is directly derived from Pike, with 35mm upper tubes for unmatched stiffness and to match the aggressive look of modern trail and enduro bikes. Damping is handled by our proven Motion Control™ with a specific tune to match Charger’s feeling, with travel options up to 160mm for 27.5" and 150mm for 29". The new DebonAir™ air spring reduces friction from every single moving part, maintaining traction in more conditions than ever before.
SRAM NX Eagle™ – It's how you start that matters. Whether you're discovering the mountain for the first time or you're an MTB lifer searching for a no-nonsense, no-worries 1x drivetrain, SRAM NX Eagle is ready for action and ready to take you there.

SRAM Centerline Rotors – The Centerline rotor was designed to keep the center of friction consistent throughout rotation, thereby minimizing vibration, offering consistent performance and a quiet ride.

Maxxis DHR II Rear Tire – With side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, but widened to provide more support, the DHR II corners like no other. The center tread features ramped leading edges to improve acceleration and sipes to create a smooth transition when leaning the bike. Paddle-like knobs on the center tread dig in under hard braking and help keep the bike under control. Pair it with a Minion DHF up front for the ultimate aggressive trail riding tire combo! The Minion DHF is available in trail, enduro, and downhill specs.
