Revolution Mountain Bike MagazineThe new Repeater is a capable, well riding machine.

The travel has been bumped up to 170mm front and rear on this second-generation machine, as well as longer and slacker geometry numbers and revised suspension kinematics to make it even more capable.

Transition equip 170mm Repeater eMTB with a SRAM Eagle Powertrain system and Transmission group for auto-shift and coast-shift capabilities

Repetition often leads to refinement and in the case of the Transition Repeater PT, refinement is the name of the game. Learn more here.

It sounds like the original Repeater will still remain in the lineup, at least for the near future, to ever-so-slightly balance out the high price of the Powertrain equipped models..

Transition’s Repeater is the brand’s full-power ebike, designed for gnarly downhills and high-paced ascents
Exceptionally adept at ascending
Bump eating suspension
Balanced geometry
Grippy tyres
Long travel dropper
Value for money
Nx eagle drivetrain lacks refinement and interferes with control setup
Not enough fork travel

The Transition Repeater AXS Carbon comes equipped with a Shimano EP8 motor and is the first eMTB of the American brand. Can it secure victory in our huge 2023 group test?
Consistent spec suits the intended use
Inspires huge amounts of confidence on the trail
Potent, firm suspension
Finicky charging port
