Bike Check – Chris’ 2024 Transition Relay PNW
This is my 2024 Transition Relay PNW, which is their SL carbon frame featuring 170/170mm of suspension. I have the flip-chip set up for a mullet configuration. I love Downhill and hate climbing, which was a terrible conundrum till SL E-Bikes like this came into existence!
I’m an ol’ school DH and shuttle kind of person at heart, but I am growing to enjoy other facets of riding too.

Wheelset
I’m running a set of MX TR38 wheels with Ano Gold Onyx Classic hubs. I wanted the strongest, fastest wheels available, and this combination checks those boxes! With my BMX background, I’ll always have a soft-spot for Onyx hubs, too.
