I've been looking for a well speced XXL bike for a while and finally found one that checks all the boxes. Seller agreed to 3200 but I haven't really kept up the the user bike market the past couple years. What's the reddit hive minds though on this one?
Transition Sentinel – Size XXL
Frame is the 2023 model, purchased in 2024 new
Custom build includes:
Fox X2 Factory Rear Shock (150mm)
RockShox Zeb Ultimate Fork 170mm
Santa Cruz Reserve Carbon Fiber Wheels
Cush Core Trail tire inserts front and rear
Brand new Maxxis Assegai and Dissector tires – only used a handful of rides.
SRAM AXS Drive train (combination XO and X01)w/ Carbon cranks – Oil Slick color
Crank brothers Stamp 3 lightweight Magnesium pedals
Ergon Seat – w/ Oil slick rails
Code RSC Brakes w/ Oil Slick bolts
OneUp Dropper seat post 210
Wolf Tooth dropper lever
PNW 40mm stem
OneUp Carbon bars
OneUp EDC Tool
Some of the parts came from another bike, but all have been cared for and in perfect condition. The fork has some cosmetic scratches on the lowers, but perfect stanchions. The frame / shock, pedals, tires, inserts are almost new – I barely rode this bike after building it so it's in like new condition.

Since the cheapest frame is $2200, I’d say it’s a good deal just based on that and the equipment i see.
Super good deal. Not only is that bike amazing, the kit is incredible too.
I think $3200 is a *smokin’* deal for that bike. Really nice build especially with the Reserve wheelset. Hop on it dude!
I’ve not really got an opinion on whether or not that’s a fair price, but Transition has a new XXL gx build for $3399.

Yes that’s a solid deal and if that’s a recent picture, it looks to be in great shape.
Yes, solid deal especially with carbon wheels and high end parts.
Buy that shih
Only a good deal if the frame is made to spec and the seatpost can actually be clamped in the seat tube.
