Transition: Covert goodbye, hello Patrol

It’s the end of an era for Transition: the Covert goes out to make room for the new Patrol, an Enduro bike with 27.5″ wheels and 155mm of rear travel. The top model weighs 29.9lbs and is the orange one you see here in the photo.

The frame is made of aluminum, and will also accept 26 “wheels. There will be 3 models in the range, you can find the other two listed below:

Compared to Covert, the kinematics have changed to make the bike bob less on the uphills. The damping curve is also fairly linear but becomes steeply progressive at the end of the stroke to prevent bottoming.
