Downtube and chainstay protection is clean yet effective, and the plastic cable guide on the pivot works great. The top-tube accessory mount is a nice touch for adding something like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/en\/tested-wolftooth-b-rad-system\/\">this<\/a>\u00a0to your bike.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/suspn.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/suspn.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/suspn-750x483.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/suspn-768x495.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"660\" \/>A 150mm RockShox Lyrik Ultimate holds down the fort in the front of the bike. We\u2019ve been using 3 volume spacers inside, but as we like to jump deep sometimes, we\u2019ll likely add one more. The well proven RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate keeps things supple out back, and the 140mm of travel seemed to give a fairly bottomless feel.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229381\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0903.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0903.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0903-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0903-768x512.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Anvl cockpit was aesthetically pleasing, but was hard to setup at first&#8230;That was until we found the clever angle guide laser etched on the back of the stem, and corresponding line on the bars, keeping the frontal view of both bar and stem nice and clean.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/baraks-scout.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1207px) 100vw, 1207px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/baraks-scout.jpg 1207w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/baraks-scout-750x355.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/baraks-scout-768x364.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1207\" height=\"572\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Code RSC brakes are a welcome choice of spec, as we\u2019d be disappointed to see anything less on a bike this capable.\u00a0That being said, for how rowdy this bike can get, a 200mm front rotor (rather than 180mm) might not hurt.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229463\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/popst-socut.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1207px) 100vw, 1207px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/popst-socut.jpg 1207w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/popst-socut-750x355.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/popst-socut-768x364.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1207\" height=\"572\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We absolutely loved both the lever ergonomics, and the actuation of the OneUp dropper post.

Transition says that with 25-30% sag, the new Scout has a better wheel path that is less likely to hang up in the middle of the stroke. Speaking of rear suspension, the Scout gets bumped up from 130mm to 140mm.<\/p>\n<h3><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229429\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_2534.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_2534.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_2534-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_2534-768x512.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>On The Trail<\/h3>\n<p>The Scout is one of the first 27.5&#8243; wheeled bikes we\u2019ve tested in a while, and we were instantly reminded how nimble, and fun the step down from 29\u201d can be. In regard to pedaling up to the trail entrance, it\u2019s inherent that larger wheels excel, for a plethora of reasons. That being said, when comparing the Scout to other 27.5&#8243; bikes, (or even some longer travel 29ers) the bike climbs really well. A short chainstay, longer reach, and 77.2 \u00b0 (medium) seat tube angle puts the rider in an upright and effective position for getting to the top.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229336\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0790.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0790.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0790-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0790-768x512.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Airtime is the Scout\u2019s friend, and its stability is likely why. Once we got our suspension settings dialed in, we found that there\u2019s a lot of pop in the Scout\u2019s Horst-link platform. A simple pull up on the bars sent us to the moon on jumps that typically feel a bit un-eventful.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229321\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0713.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0713.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0713-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0713-768x512.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Slashing and sliding aside (which the bike loves), the Scout is a very capable descender. In the loose and steep bits, we felt in control, and when big hits reverberated through the bike, the suspension platform gave us a feeling that more than just 140mm was doing its duty out back. We\u2019d be curious to try this bike in its other travel combo. By switching from a 57.5mm stroke rear shock to a 62.5mm, you can bump the Scout from 140mm to 150mm rear travel. At that point, you&#8217;d also want to swap your fork&#8217;s air spring to 160mm or 170mm travel. At any rate, that the bike can do this is a testament to its versatility.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229330\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0739.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0739.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0739-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.mtb-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMC_0739-768x512.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Overall<\/h3>\n<p>The mid-travel, medium wheeled bike begs to flicked about during loose descents, and seems not to mind the pedal back up in the slightest, so hats off to the Scout for reminding us why we love mountain biking. If you\u2019re someone looking for the mountain biker\u2019s mountain bike, the Scout could be the hot ticket. It&#8217;s a bike that is aimed primarily at fun, less so at racing the clock.<\/p>\n<p>More at:\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.transitionbikes.com\/\">Transition<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Many brands claim to be for riders, by riders, with varying levels of truth to the statement.
