I was looking at one of these a couple of months back, saw this and my mind was made up! I now have one and love it! I found the quick steering and the amount of front end grip(which has to be experienced to be believed!) a little unnerving to begin with but once you start trusting it it really is amazing. Don't underestimate how capable this little bike is, 130mm travel on the rear feels like 150mm. Great vid and a stunning bike👍

Great video and review. I'm looking to buy either a 2018 scout or patrol to replace my nomad 3. Which bike did you find more fun to ride? Would you size up or down if you were in between sizes? I'm looking for a fun playful bike that I can do big jumps and moderate drops on. Thanks!

Hmm... A medium is 1180 wb. That's longish in my books. And with the 65° hta, this bike should be nice and stable at a respectable speed. Plus its playful. How is it at the drops I wonder...

I am buying my first full suspension bike and looking at Transition bikes. The Scout sounds like a fun bike to ride! I live in N Cal near Tahoe which has many big down hill options. Would the Scout handle the Downiville downhill or would you suggest a longer travel and maybe 29er like sentinel?

Edd Hamilton Very glad to hear that! I ordered my Transition Scout NX and can’t wait to get it! Thanks for responding to my question. Lot’s of cool bikes out there and I bet all of them would be great. The Scout just seemed to fit what I am looking for after talking w/ lots of experts on the topic and figuring out what I want which is to have fun.

150mm front travel and 65° HA, how is that little bike territory?
@thatguythatdoesstuff7448

James Brant The 150 fork is more to set the slacker HA. Transition recommends more sag in the front and rear than is typical. It's also a 130mm rear travel. This is by no means an Enduro bike. I rode this bike at Evo bike park this weekend. The course was really chewed up. It was definitely a rough ride on the Scout, but the bike was amazingly stable through fast and rutted out sections.

I tried to demo the Sentinel and the Patrol, but the manufacturers at Outerbike planned horribly. Lots of small, medium and XL bikes sitting around. While people like me, 6'0" and can't ride the next size up or down, sat around hoping someone would turn a bike in. I liked the Scout, but it was a little short on rear travel for me with the sag they want to run.

Do you think that the smaller travel that is has is something not to really worry about on flowy jumpy trails like undeployment line on galbraith mtn? I did demo a patrol and it seems kinda long and harder to pop off the ground. Very stable at high speeds. I love to climb big with bigger decents and shuttle up and going down technical trails like around chukanut and im not sure if the scout is that kind of bike. Would appreciate a good answer thank you

Mt.Baker Snowboarding it’s the perfect bike for Galbraith. The patrol is probably better for shuttling, but the scout is very capable.
