Giant XTC 29 2
The great frame is unfortunately combined with heavy equipment. Weight tuning (wheels) necessary!

The frame is a dream. Rarely has hydroforming technology been used more successfully than on the 1500 gram XTC chassis. Varying tube shapes, great workmanship and a look similar to titanium. The bike would immediately turn you on if it weren't for the extremely heavy wheels and the well-functioning but also heavy fork. Giant is carrying almost two kilos more than the competition. Even the favourable price can't make up for this. The handling is correspondingly sluggish.


CONCLUSIONThe great frame is unfortunately combined with heavy equipment. Weight tuning (wheels) necessary!


TUNING TIPImpellers are extremely heavy!

  Giant offers the lightest and most beautifully manufactured frames. Sometimes angular, sometimes narrow, always unusual.
