Description
The 2024 Transition Smuggler is a highly versatile 29” trail bike, designed to bridge the gap between lightweight agility and aggressive trail capability. Featuring 130mm of rear travel paired with a 140mm fork, the Smuggler uses Transition’s GiddyUp suspension system and Speed Balanced Geometry (SBG) for a confident, playful ride on technical singletrack and demanding descents. Available in both carbon and alloy frames, it offers progressive geometry, internal cable routing, and robust construction, making it ideal for riders seeking a do-it-all trail machine that’s as comfortable on big climbs as it is smashing descents
