Giant Stance 2 27.5" Mountain Bike 2016 - Full Suspension MTB
The 2016 Giant Stance 27.5 opens up the world of flowing singletrack and technical trails with true, full suspension, MTB performance. Confident, quick and fun to ride, tear up your local trail centre.
120mm travel from the RockShox suspension puts the Stance bang in the short travel trail mountain bike sweet spot - ideal for fluid trail riding.Frame
Key to the quality ride feel is the ALUXX aluminium frame, well regarded for its great strength to weight ratio. Upfront is Giant’s OverDrive steerer tube for improved steering precision - great for when you’re hammering uphill or carving through a corner.
Suspension
It’s great to see a full sus under at this price point clad with a RockShox fork and shock. Upfront the Gold SoloAir provides a plush 120mm travel with lockout for flying up the climbs. This is matched well to the Monarch R shock to smooth out the trail and keep your wheels tracking while climbing and descending.
Giant’s FlexPoint suspension system eliminates complex pivots and linkages in favour of using the flexing elements of the rear chainstay and seatstay. The system is effective, lightweight, durable and super low maintenance. For light to medium trail riding, it’s ideal.
Components
The smooth and reliable Shimano drivetrain offers a great range of gears to get you up the climbs efficiently. The Maxxis Ardent tyres on the 27.5” wheels are fast rolling with good grip through the corners. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes allow you to control your speed with confidence.
Updated from 2015 the Stance gets an FSA Comet chainset (previously Dynadrive). This is still a 3x chainset but has smaller chainrings all round for lower gear ratios. That means climbing is easier and more user friendly on singletrack.Key Features:
- 120mm of full suspension travel to smooth out rough trails
