Expirience with the Giant TRANCE X 1

Ludwig Döhl More travel than the normal Trance, but still more suitable for touring than the Reign Enduro. The TRANCE X 1 tries to combine the best of two worlds. Not to be sneezed at: The well-functioning Maestro rear triangle. Especially in extremely steep terrain, this combination makes for smooth handling. Due to the interplay of a relatively long top tube and a low stack, the riding position is sporty. With the Giant TRANCE X 1, the real fun starts at the peak of the mountain. Because in the downhill, the on demanding single tracks is better than the competitors in this price range. With 25 years the warranty is another neat feature.
