Transition Smuggler Carbon - Orchid - Small (Ex Staff Bike)

The Transition Smuggler Carbon is a mid-travel trail bike built to blend lightning-fast efficiency with aggressive descending confidence. Centered around a lightweight carbon frame featuring Transition's proven GiddyUp four-bar Horst-Link suspension, it pairs 130mm of active rear travel with a 140mm RockShox Pike Ultimate fork. Driven by SRAM's direct-mount 90 Eagle Transmission drivetrain and controlled by 4-piston SRAM Code Silver Stealth hydraulic brakes, the Smuggler is a versatile 29er designed to charge all-day trail epics and rowdy technical descents alike.
