Transition Patrol Carbon 3 GX

This is a 18" (Large) 2017 Transition Patrol Carbon 3 GX.  As you can see from the pictures, it's a police-sale special.  The frame was spray-painted.  Always a great sign!  But, there's not dents or cracks in the carbon; it's solid.  So, the good: this is a carbon Patrol for under $2k; you won't find another.  The bad: it's painted, and some of the proper axles (in the rear) and shock hardware is missing.  Currently it's functioning, but there's a little play in both the rear wheel and the rear shock.  Getting the necessary factory hardware will fix it.  Also, the remote lever for the dropper is missing; you could either try and buy one from Specialized (it's just a Command Post dropper), or just replace it with an internal.  This is a space-filler; I took the Fox dropper and used it for my new bike.
