Transit Bike
Get moving
For every Reid purchased around the world, we will plant a tree in their honour. We have responsibility as a good-manufacturing business to offset the carbon that we are using to make our already sustainable products and what better way to do this than planting a tree.
Description
Back and better than ever for 2023 is the Transit range, and they do exactly as the name says. They move people. Simply, the Transit makes getting around easy, fuss free, and inexpensive.
With relaxed geometry, wide range Shimano gearing, and 40c tyres, moving by bike has never been so easy. The Transit frame is made from lightweight hydroformed alloy delivering a nimble and accurate ride, making you feel at home instantly. Cables are routed internally to give a sleek look and improve protection, with the fork crown and headtube size matched to improve looks and reduce dirt ingress to the headset.
Luggage and mudguards are easily fitted using the frame mounts making customization to your needs easy. And with a sturdy chain stay mounted kickstand, loading and unloading is always easy. Equipped with V-brakes and double walled rims the Transit provides effective stopping and reliable performance, ensuring you are always in control.
The Transit range, simply, moving people.
