I was thinking of putting a one on my Transition S-Works...but talking to some of the folks at Hed, I don't think there is enough clearance on the Transition. They said frames with 35mm or less at the narrowest point may have issues. Looking at the chainstays on the Transition I think it would be really close, if not making contact.

They make a non C2 version that is a little narrower.
Transition realted- anyone find that the bike has less drop from the saddle to the bars than expected? I just started building mone and with the stem at -16 degrees and no spacers it is 11cm or slightly less- size medium. Small would be too short in top tube and front center.

Go with a Jet C2 on the front (assuming that'll fit with the funky proprietary brake on the Transition) and a standard Jet disc on the rear. I'm running that right now on my P3C and I absolutely love it. These are fabulous wheels.
