Transition Repeater Owners Thread

Hi, now that the Transition Repeaters are being delivered in the UK here’s the owners thread

The bike is so good that nobody has anything to write about

I'am loving mine. I'ts a real beast of a bike.

We’re too busy smiling to post or take pictures, but here’s mine when I had a rare photo-op after botching a sandy corner.

Such good looking e bikes, especially in the green. Had a sentinel so biased maybe!

Hi there,
I have to send my Float X shock for revision after 2 years of riding and as it might take weeks before it comes back, I am thinking of getting a coil shock. Found a Marzocchi Bomber CR for good deal but now when trying to figure out what could be the right coil, various spring calculators give stuff from 350 to 450 lbs. Knowing I am 80 kg + 5-7 kg for ebike, 160mm of rear travel and 65mm shock stroke with expected 28-33% SAG, is there anyone over here that can suggest what would
it be better to start with ? 450 or 400 or even 425 ? 350 being definitely off the target ?
Thanks,
Seb

I'm the same weight as you and my bike store said 450. I purchased a Repeater PT yesterday and the only things I'm doing to it are swapping out the brakes and shock for a coil. I usually swap out a lot more than that, but it's a very well specced bike right out of the box.

That was the bike I wanted, but they didn't have my size. Luckily got offered a great deal on the PT GX instead.
