At Transition Bikes, we take pride in the quality of our products. Our frames are manufactured to withstand the rigors and abuse modern mountain bike trails can dish out. That said, anything can break given just the right amount of time, wear, or misfortune. Everyone here at Transition Bikes is committed to keeping you riding and we realize every warranty and or crash replacement situation is unique. You have our guarantee that we will do our best to make sure we keep you riding while limiting any downtime.
The Scout Carbon, released in 2020 is covered for life against manufacturing defects. This policy applies to original owners only. Transition Bikes will repair or replace any original purchaser's individual frame parts or complete frame at our discretion.
You must register your frame on our site with your serial number and provide proof of purchase to qualify for a warranty. In the event of an issue with your frame Transition Bikes will determine whether it qualifies as a ‘Warranty Issue’ or is covered under our ‘Crash Replacement Policy’ (see below for details).
In the event that you have to send back all or part of your frame under warranty, you are responsible for the shipping costs to get it to us and we will pay the return shipping.
*Our warranty policy does not cover:
Any labor costs associated to the warranty claim.
Modifications from stock configuration.
Normal wear-and-tear damage.
Paint damage caused by the removal of protective tapes or adhesives.
CRASH REPLACEMENT
In addition to our warranty, all Transition Bikes frames are covered for life under our "Crash Replacement Policy" to the original or second-hand owner. If for any reason you should find yourself with a damaged frame, you may send us the broken frame section and we will replace it for the best possible price we can, assuming we have the replacement part available. If we do not have the piece available we will attempt to work out a crash replacement price on a replacement frameset. The customer is responsible for all shipping costs to get the frame to and from Transition Bikes.
WE GET IT - PEOPLE WHO RIDE OUR BIKES RIDE HARD
Above is our official stance, since to some degree these things need to be spelled out. But our entire philosophy is based around being a rider-owned company, and we take that seriously. We're well aware that not every circumstance can be accounted for and not every case falls neatly into one of the above categories. We look at every warranty and crash replacement case with a fresh lens and treat every situation in the manner in which we would expect it to be handled. Our goal is to leave no rider who supports us without support in return.

Can I mount a chain guide/bash guard to this frame?
Yes, this frame comes with ISCG05 tabs. If using a chain guide the rubber cable guide plug is not needed.
Can I pre-order a bike?
We do not accept pre-orders for direct purchase, but you can sign up to be notified when an item comes back in stock.
If you are a customer who is looking to order a bike through your local Transition dealer or through the Transition Factory Outpost Store you will want to reach out to them directly.
Can I run a coil shock on this bike?
Yes. This bike is designed to work with both air and coil shocks. We know there are a lot of great shock options outside of what we spec, but we have worked extremely hard to develop the tune in our supplied shocks. We believe they perform as good as anything else available in the aftermarket options.
Transition Bikes is not responsible for any damage to a frame caused by a shock that we do not spec. To verify shock fitment please email us at info@transitionbikes.com
Can I run a fork with a different amount of travel?
Yes. Running 10mm more or less travel than stock is okay. Any more than 10mm in either direction can negatively affect the handling.
Can I run a fork with more offset?
Yes, but this bike is built with SBG technology, which utilizes a 37mm off set. Running a fork with more offset would be taking away from the SBG technology package.
Can I try a bike before I buy?
We offer three ways to demo a bike. If you find yourself in Bellingham, you can follow this link to schedule a demo through the Outpost. If you live somewhere else, you can follow this link to see what shops currently have demo bikes available. And finally, you can view our events page, located here to see which upcoming demo events we'll be participating in.
Do you offer financing?
We provide easy and affordable financing through our partner, Bread, so you can pay for your purchase over time. This option is only available in the USA at this time.
Does this frame fit a water bottle?
Size SM through XL will fit a water bottle. Size XS will fit a 15oz/450ml Fidlock water bottle
How do I find tracking for my shipment?
If you have not received an email confirming your tracking number, you can find it by going to your "Order History" once logged in. There you'll see the invoice number, date shipped, shipping carrier, and tracking info, if available. You'll be able to click on the tracking info and be re-directed to the shipping carrier's website.
How will my bike show up, how much assembly is required?
If you order directly from us you can watch this video to see how the bike will arrive to you. There is very little assembly required. If you order it through one of our local dealers, then the bike will come assembled and ready to ride.
