You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Desperately after one but all the usual google searches are bringing up 'out of stock' 🙁
Even emailed transition UK but not heard back from them either.
You can't be that desperate mate, took me 10 seconds to find one

Id be surprised, bought my xl a few months ago and tamed earth phoned distributors and all xl,l in both scout and patrol were gone for this year. Having bought an in stock, out of stock bike from merlin before i wouldn't bet they had them
Don't be fooled, lots of places have them advertised, but when asked they admit they are out of stock.
Tamed Earth was my first call as they are only just up the a3 from me, but they only had a medium. Lummox, how tall are you if you don't mind me asking? My large carbon covert always felt cramped, but the xl patrol is a lot bigger on paper at least!

Geeez online shops these days, just ring around thats what I did.
try getting in touch with pedals in Edinburgh
No use, we only have mediums in Patrols, Scouts and Smugglers.
We even have to give up the one stock large frame we had on order for ages as they over sold customer orders. We are just too honest I guess..
I'm 6'5", came from a large five and this feels longer but not abnormal, apart from under steering a bit at the moment this has been a nice change over.
Co incidentally I've set an awful lot of pr's since getting it, despite not 'feeling' faster
Try York Cycleworks, I enquired about 2 weeks for an xl, they didn't have one, and couldn't get one but had a couple of frames in stock but can't remember if they were L or M.

Theres a large scout for sale on pinkbike if you're interested.
It Merlin say they have something then they have it.
Unless it's a kinesis frame that they didn't have and couldn't get. Despite placing an order on an in stock item a week previous.
I have to say this was the only miss I've ever had with Merlin and continue to use them as it was refunded/ sorted without fuss.
Im going to start saving for the carbon patrol, the said summer but im guessing 2016.
September/October/November/December apparently
I've got one! Thanks windwave and Dartmoor cycles!! 😀
Now the hunt for some wheels begins. Anyone want some 26" crossmax enduros......
Mate of mine is selling his. I think I have been out with him on most of his rides on this bike and it has not had a hard life.
