Overview
About this bike
Transition's Ripcord is for the kids who send it, rip it, and demand as much from their bikes as you do from yours. It's a legit trail bike with 100mm of tuneable RockShox front and rear suspension. Whether they shred the bike park or fast XC laps, the Ripcord has a perfect geometry for pedaling fast and building confidence on steep, technical sections. Made from strong, lightweight aluminum, the bike features a super-low standover height to allow getting rad, even as they're building skills. Hydraulic disc brakes keep speed in check and a 1x9 drivetrain keeps things clean and the shifting easy. This bike is ridiculously fun, so if your junior riding buddy is ready to take his/her riding to the next level, check out the Ripcord. • Super-low standover & handlebar height • Standard size rear shock • Geo designed around 100mm 26to; fork • Air shock and air fork for easy tuning • Adjustable reach hydraulic brakes • Wide range 1x9 gearing for simplicity • Frame is 24-inch wheel specific (can't be upgraded to 26-inch bike)
