Transition Smuggler - 2024-25, Medium

2024 Transition Smuggler XTR Di2 29, Size M — Full Carbon Trail MTB, Shimano XTR Di2 12-Speed

The Transition Smuggler is one of the most versatile and aggressive trail bikes on the market, and this XTR Di2–equipped build takes it to a true top-tier level. Built around a full carbon frame, the Smuggler balances efficiency, stability, and playful handling, making it equally capable on long climbs, technical descents, and all-day trail missions.

This bike is powered by a Shimano XTR Di2 1x12 drivetrain with a wide 10–51 cassette and 32T chainring, delivering lightning-fast, precise electronic shifting under load. Braking is handled by Shimano XTR hydraulic brakes, offering outstanding modulation and confidence on steep, technical terrain.

Suspension is where this build really stands out. Up front, the Fox 36 with Grip X2 damper (140mm travel) provides exceptional small-bump sensitivity and downhill control. Out back, the Fox DHX2 coil shock (130mm travel) delivers unmatched traction, composure, and consistency on rough trails, giving the Smuggler a planted, confidence-inspiring ride feel.

Rolling on Shimano MT620 wheels set up tubeless with Maxxis DHR II tires, this bike is ready for aggressive trail riding straight away. A OneUp cockpit, ONE dropper post, and short 40mm stem keep the fit modern and trail-focused. Designed for riders approximately 5’7”–5’10”, this size Medium Smuggler hits the sweet spot for control and agility.

The bike is pre-owned, in great condition, fully tuned, and 100% ready to ride, with only minor cosmetic marks from normal trail use and nothing structural.

Why we love it

We love this Smuggler because it blends trail-bike efficiency with near-enduro-level descending confidence. The combination of Fox 36 + DHX2 coil gives incredible grip and composure, while XTR Di2 brings flawless electronic shifting into the trail category. It’s a bike that pedals better than it should, descends harder than expected, and feels dialed everywhere in between—exactly what a modern “do-it-all” trail bike should be.
