Giant Trance Advanced 1 27.5" Mountain Bike 2016 - Full Suspension MTB
Built to go fast on technical trails the Giant Trance Advanced 27.5 1 is a light and agile full suspension MTB that is perfect for trail centre loops and cross country adventures.
Featuring a dialled trail geometry - slack head angle, long wheelbase and short chainstays - mean that the Trance is stable at speed while still remaining nimble in the corners.
Frame
The Advanced-Grade composite frame is built with high performance grade carbon fibres and resin. The front triangle is moulded as one continuous piece which increase strength while also reducing weight. The seat and chainstays are constructed from lightweight and durable Aluxx SL alloy.
A tapered OverDrive steerer keeps the front end nice and stiff for precise steering while the PowerCore bottom bracket means that more of your power is transferred through to the 27.5” wheels.
Suspension
The tried and tested Maestro suspension system offers 140mm of fully active full suspension travel that works consistently and predictably even when pedalling and braking. New for 2016 is the Fox Factory DPS (Dual Piston System) shock. Offering a more supple feel than the old CTD shocks the DPS offers three position compression damping adjustment that features a firmer climbing lockout without compromising bump control in the medium and open settings. Compression damping can also be fine tuned in open mode.
The new Fox 34 fork also features the new FIT4 damper and offers three position compression adjustment with further fine tuning options in open mode. Both shock and fork feature Kashima coating for a very slick feel.
Components
The new Shimano XT 11 speed one by drivetrain offers all the gears you need in a very slick system that is very easy to use out on the trail and offers great chain retention even without a chain device.
Stopping is also taken care of with Shimano XT. Plenty of power with great modulation enables you to control your speed with confidence whatever the trail conditions.
Rounding off the great component spec are the Giant TRX wheels with carbon composite rims. These are stiff and lightweight offering snappy acceleration. A Giant contact SL dropper post means that you can adjust your saddle height on the fly - great for those technical descents with little rises in the middle.
The Trance Advanced 1 is a very quick and capable full sus trail bike that will eat up the off road miles with ease. Available with a Tredz 0% Finance package so you don’t need to wait to tear up the trails.
