just bought this bike today on sale brand new for 1325. its my first full suspension and excited. i live in houston tx and we are super flat city so the trails we have here are perfect for this bike. insee dudes with some overkill bikes. i come from a santa cruz chameleon 29er and switched to full squish 27.5 so its gonna be a change for sure

[thedreshow]

i do love my bike. during covid no one had bikes I had it ordered from Cali and sent to New York. at first riding I wasn't sure. now it's extremely comfortable fits me perfectly at a medium size. I do love it. I hooked it up too with custom gold stickers over the giant symbols and gold bolts. s*** looks crazy

Ive been riding a 2018 Giant Toughroad slr for the last 5 years and I want to start cutting my own trails and bashing around. I loves my toughroad so much I knew they made quality bikes

I picked this bike up used and the guy said he used it 3 times and was a newbie. Its pretty rad...I got it for $1500. I see these a lot now being sold as people ran out and bought them when covid hit and now people are selling them...If I had complaints which I dont Id switch the grips for some lock one ones and get more knobby tires. My Wheels came set up tubeless as well...Im gonna run the tires till they are worn out for now. I find the seat a little hard and not shaped right for my butt. I prefer the outside to curve down more and I had a MTB Volt or something like that on MY Salsa Hard tale...So far ive beat this thing. I have hit like 15mph downhills super over super Rocky tech Pennsylvania garbage and it has taken everything ive thrown at it so far..I think it was the best bang for the buck ive seen..

Great video thanks. Very informative. As an entry level unit it looks great and has great reviews. Mine arrives in 2 days. Can’t wait to get out in the trails

[tomd]

Very thorough video, thanks! I'm thinking of part-exchanging my Terrago hardtail for one of these.

If they would add the NX derailleur, it would probably just about the perfect lower cost full suspension.

Pretty picky on my bikes, I own this same bike, excellent bike, didn't like the stock grips which I changed as well as a larger front tire. Really solid, comfortable, easy to ride bike. Ripped this at Spider Mountain to Tx, works great. Not too heavy. Love the plush rock shox

[shermanwilliams]

Mines came with Crest 34 forks, they sucked. Switched Rockshox Judy, we'll see how it runs

I got my 2021 27.5 stance last year and I rode it hard until February 2022 and I only needed to put the sealant in it once and I only need one tune up.

[silver_coud]

it would have been perfect if its rear is a thru axle.

[greensleeves]

Those QRs really kill this bike. Really wish it had thru axles. Giant could totally make it happen if they wanted to.

[robinrai]

I think the Calibre Bossnut's a better bet, great geo, much cheaper price and thru axle n all

I just bought an older voodoo full sus for 400 bucks and this Giant echos quite a lot of it's features and shortcomings, quick release, older geo, etc.

[shaymtbrider]

I got stance 27.5 version n i put 300 miles in month n man its soo good

[mbbrothers]

my bike has just been stolen so im planning to buy this bike if there is no news to getting it back

[eckdavid]

The video would've been even better if you'd told us how it rides going uphill and downhill.

[attacklifeuk]

Had this bike a wile now only gripe I have is the brakes, they are terrible. Wish it came with a thru axle in the rear aswell but for the price it's a very good bike, really lightweight

[eddiek]

I dont know if to go for this in its 2023 version or the Marin rift zone 1 29er 2023 😅.

[anthonybrown]

Hi im looking for the forks which are on this bike is there any more information as to shere i an get them from they ook so sweet on this bike thanks

[ARIODAY]

Are all these models supposed to come with the rockshox recons? Because I just bought one and it came with a crest 34 fork by Giant
