Giant Trance 1 27.5" Mountain Bike 2016 - Full Suspension MTB
Quick and assured on all types of trail, the Giant Trance 27.5 1 is a confident full sus MTB for taking on challenging cross country trails and trail centre loops.
Frame
The Aluxx aluminium frameset is constructed from double butted and formed tubes making it both stiff and lightweight. A tapered OverDrive steerer tube keep the front end nice and stiff while the PowerCore bottom bracket means that more of your pedal power is used to drive you forward.
A dialled trail geometry, slack 67 degree head angle, long wheelbase and short chainstays mean that the Trance is stable and assured at speed and over rough terrain while still remaining nimble in tight technical turns.
Suspension
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. Mated to the proven Maestro suspension system this offers 140mm of active suspension travel that can be dialled in to suit individual trail sections on the trail.
The new Fox 34 fork also features a three position compression adjuster with further fine tuning options in open mode. Both shock and fork feature Kashima coating for a very slick feel.
Components
SRAM X1/X01 drivetrain gives you all the gears you need without needing more than a single ring up front. Chain retention is excellent even without a chain device due to the clutch feature on the rear mech and the ‘thick/thin’ chainring teeth.
SRAM guide RS brakes are very powerful with great modulation so that you can control your speed with confidence in all conditions.
Giant’s TRX 1 WheelSystem has stiff, lightweight carbon composite rims for quick acceleration. The Contact SL dropper post with bar mounted remote means that you can have your saddle in the optimum position all of the time.
The Giant Trance 1 is a performance full suspension mountain bike that is ready for adventure. Available with Tredz 0% interest finance package, why wait to hit the trails.
