Thread: X-post, 2010 TranceX (med) for sale. tits.

http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/s...ALAS-36-XT-etc

what's the difference between the trance and the trance x? I'm in the market for an "aggressive" AM bike and I'm looking for something that climbs pretty ok, and I can jump. Moving from an Iron Horse 6point that I've really liked, it's just heavy and getting a little long in the tooth. Was thinking about a spec enduro or maybe a reign, but you've intrigued me. I must say, I'm intrigued.

Trance X has a higher component spec, basically. I built this one up from the frame, so it's kinda moot. this Trance with the 36 TALAS is an absolute crusher, pedals way better that the reign (IMO), is a good pound lighter,( I have it built to ~30) but still has plenty of travel. It is nimble and capable. I call it the Porcupine Killer because it is so versatile. I think Marshal has some time on this configuration, and approves....

(caveat, needs a TALAS cart. overhaul)

This is how it sits right now. (parts will change a bit, of course).

trance = 100mm/ 4" travel
trance x = 5" / 125mm of travel (and nicer build kits)

What's the consensus on a 160mm fork on this bike? I'm also quite intrigued. Wish I could ride it before I make a rash decision.

Well, it's a TALAS, so it is 100, 130, 160. i run it at all travel a lot. Super versitile, and can be one of the lightest 5"/6" bikes out there...or a burly thang. Currently running 2.5 Minion dual ply DH tires, just to give you an idea.

Thanks Rideit.

You want a Reign X. If you're more into the XC thing or longer rides, the Trance is a rad bike. The bike listed is tits.

TITS

Bump for $1800!

I'm pitching the bike hard to a few folks. If I wasn't already building up the near exact same thing (similar build, ASR5) I would've bought this.

Sweet frame, good build, all that great stuff.
