Giant Trance 29 2 (Slate Gray)
2201043205
Turn up the heat on technical trails and do it with more confidence and control — a feisty 29er with updated suspension and adjustable geometry that adapts to the terrain.
Overview
The Trance 29 2 is built around a lightweight ALUXX SL aluminium frameset with a longer reach and steeper seat tube for aggressive trail riding and improved climbing capability. A flip chip lets riders change the head tube and seat tube angles, along with the bottom bracket height, to fine-tune handling for varying trail conditions and individual riding style.
Updated Maestro rear suspension delivers 120mm of rear-wheel travel paired with a 130mm fork up front, while larger 29-inch diameter wheels are optimised to roll over rough terrain with balance and stability. That combination gives riders the momentum to tackle technical climbs and the confidence to fly on fast, rugged singletrack descents. A Giant Contact Switch dropper seatpost with a handlebar remote lets riders drop the saddle instantly for descents.
It's built for a rider who wants genuine full-suspension trail performance with the flexibility to tune the bike's handling to the trail ahead.
Why You'll Like It
- Tune the handling to the trail: The flip chip lets you change the head tube and seat tube angles, and the bottom bracket height, for varying trail conditions and riding style.
- Confident on technical ground: Larger 29-inch wheels roll over rough terrain with balance and stability for both climbs and descents.
- Genuine trail-bike suspension: Updated Maestro rear suspension delivers 120mm of rear-wheel travel paired with a 130mm fork.
- Descend with confidence: A dropper seatpost with a handlebar remote lets you drop the saddle instantly before a descent and raise it again for the next climb.
- Dependable, all-weather braking: 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes provide strong, consistent stopping power on technical terrain.
Who Is It For?
The Trance 29 2 suits a rider who wants genuine full-suspension trail capability with room to fine-tune the bike's handling as their riding develops. It's a strong fit for weekend riders tackling the rockier, more technical trails found just outside most Indian cities.
It also works well for a rider who's outgrown a hardtail and wants a dependable Shimano Deore-equipped full-suspension build for serious singletrack riding.
Good to Know
The dropper seatpost's handlebar remote keeps saddle height adjustments quick and intuitive mid-ride, and the tubeless-ready wheelset is set up to take advantage of lower tyre pressures for extra grip. This colourway is available in M and S sizes.
