The Transition TransAM was the Washington state-based US bike brand's trail-shredding best hardtail mountain bike. It's been highly rated for ages but has been out of the limelight for a few years as Transition released a host of other 'on trend' models like their lightweight Relay e-MTB and the updated Transition Smuggler, the brand's best trail bike offering.
So has Transition seen the light? and brought back their classic hardtail mountain bike, possibly, but it's not for good, the new TransAM is only around for a limited time. In today's crowded budget hardtail mountain bike market, the TransAM has some big competition, but with modern geometry, 29-inch wheels, a decent specced build, and two classic color schemes, we think it stacks up pretty well against its hardtail MTB competition.
