OWNER INTELLIGENCE · BIKE REPORT

Transition Relay

What owners actually know.

The Transition Relay is Transition's lightweight Fazua Ride 60 bike, sold in carbon and alloy and in two personalities: the full-29er air-shock build and the coil-sprung PNW mullet edition. One frame generation so far. The motor's own record - including the Porsche-era shutdown of Fazua - lives in the Fazua Ride 60 owners' report.

Most owners report no problems. The clusters below are the minority who hit something: every count is distinct owners, and every claim links to the post it came from.

The Verdict

Owners adore the bike and burned through its motors: the Relay's frame-level record is genuinely mild: bushing creaks, battery-door rattle, factory-QC niggles, all with documented fixes.

While one owner reached motor nine on the Fazua side. Transition's support is the differentiator: overnighted parts, free hardware kits, one outright refund. Since Porsche shut Fazua down in May 2026, the purchase question is no longer the frame: it is spares.
