    Summary

    Expirience with the Giant Trance 1

    Giant Trance 1 Review A classic among trail bikes. The Maestro rear end feels extremely plush on the trail. Giant is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the on moderate to demanding trails should be considered pleasant. Especially for light riders under 70 kilos, the weight of this bike is enormous. With 14,5 kg, the ratio of rider to bike weight could be lighter. For friends of sending it on rowdy trails: the last argument is still the strongest, because the harmonious geometry and the grippy tires cause you to smile from top to bottom in the descent. With 25 years the warranty is another neat feature.
