I have owned mountain bikes and hybrid bikes for many years and the Transeo Ultra is by far the best, It's a lovely ride over tarmac, rough lanes, tracks and parks.
I fitted it out with a rack, mudguards and Schwalbe marathon plus tour tyres and it takes me to work every day and anything else I ask of it.
My next bike will be a Transeo Ultra too.

GT says
Can't decide between pavement comfort and off-road durability? Don't. The Transeo Ultra packs a lightweight, responsive 7000 series aluminum frame with a taller riding position that's as comfortable weekday commuting as it is on Saturday afternoon singletrack. The Transeo Ultra represents the absolute best in what the Transeo has to offer.

Early BMX frames were also easily identifiable as the top tube seemed to bisect the seat tube and protrude beyond it by approximately an inch-and-a-half towards the rear of the frame. This innovative idea was claimed to reduce the amount of vibration transferred to the seat fr
