2016 Transition Smuggler Full Suspension Mountain Bike

Season:2016

Brand:Transition

Code:01.16.11.3021.

Aggressive geometry with a slack 67.5 head angle and roomy cockpit let you push the bike hard while the 29 wheels smooth out rough terrain. The short 436mm chainstay and 115mm of progressive suspension keep the bike agile, responsive and playful for maximum fun on whatever trail you choose. 

It’s no secret that 27.5 wheels get all the attention these days, but we haven’t forgotten about the big wheel, and we love the way they ride when done correctly. We wanted the Smuggler to give the rider all the benefit of a 29 wheel without any of the negatives. That is a pretty lofty goal, but we think the Smuggler is our best 29er ever. The 29 wheel is awesome for traction, control and confidence, but too much travel or the wrong geo and the bike will feel sluggish on the trail. Many companies run steeper head angles or a shorter wheelbase to add agility, but these are a poor substitute for a proper head angle, weight balance and room to move around on the bike. Our shorter travel frame gives you a direct connection to the ground and super short 436mm chainstay length with stiff rear triangle will make you forget you are on “wagon wheels”. Push the bike into rough, rooty and technical terrain and the big wheels do their work to keep you moving forward and smooth out the trail under you. This bike will go much further than the travel numbers would suggest.
