The bike rides well for the price (£190) paid once set up properly. The pedals are grippy enough and spin well. The seat is a little spongy, I replaced mine with a harder seat. The tyres are actually rather good and grippy but a bit too wide for regular road use, I will replace with thinner tyres when they have worn out. The gears are ok once adjusted properly although the front derailleur does not shift 1-2-3 rather you have to get it in the right position using the twist shift which can take some getting used to.

A lightweight aluminium construction means the Transition is easy to maintain and ride and also features lightweight urban style 27.5' wheels for fast acceleration with smoother tyres for more comfortable riding on both roads. I took all of the decals off mine as it is a lovely colour bike and they look tacky.
