By blending a full-suspension bike that’s capable of some technical downhilling with the climbing efficiency of a modern trail bike, riders will love the overall versatility of the Giant Trance X Advanced Pro 29 3. The carbon frame is an ideal way to start this bike, as it adds a light weight precision to the mix. Pair that with smooth and fast-rolling 29” wheels and tires, and you’ll be able to conquer any and all trails on which you find yourself. Whether you’re looking to have a ton of fun on group rides or are looking to max-out some PR’s on the local trails, this bike has both the speed and the capabilities to handle it all. With mid-travel numbers like 150 mm in the front and 135 mm in the back, this bike oozes versatility. The uphills feel easy while the downhills feel smooth—that's the best part of modern trail bikes. They have the ability to be both progressive and technical at the same time.
