Giant Trance X 1 Panther

Bumpy rock fields, gnarled roots, and steep, technical climbs – the brand new Trance X 29 is designed for those who look forward to the toughest trail sections. With more travel and adjustable geometry, this bike is always on the hunt for challenging singletrack fun.

This brand new 29er has one mission: to help you tackle even the toughest trails faster and with more flow. It features a stable and stiff aluminium frame with 29-inch specific geometry and plush suspension with new, improved tuning. The Maestro rear now offers 135 mm of active travel, perfectly matching the 150 mm fork. The Advanced Forged Carbon link features a flip chip that allows you to adjust the geometry, optimally adapting the ride characteristics to your riding style and the terrain. You can set a steeper/flatter head and seat angle while simultaneously adjusting the bottom bracket drop to 30 mm or 40 mm. The whole bike is perfectly tuned to its 29-inch wheels and offers plenty of tyre clearance (up to 2.5 inches), so you can enjoy maximum grip on rough trails.

29er for Confidence and Control

29-inch wheels roll very balanced and stable even in rough terrain. This way, you carry more momentum into the climb and gain confidence to let the bike fly on fast, rough singletracks. Thanks to increased tyre clearance, the frame accommodates tyres up to 2.5 inches wide.

Progressive Suspension

The new Maestro rear is equipped with a trunnion shock mount that allows for more stroke and provides better responsiveness. You have 135 mm of rear travel available (as well as 150 mm at the front), and you can adjust the geometry via flip chip in two positions. The “Advanced Forced” link provides more stiffness and stability while keeping weight low.

Adjustable Frame Geometry

The lightweight aluminium frame features adjustable geometry with a head angle of 66.2 degrees or 65.5 degrees and a seat angle of 77.9 degrees or 77.2 degrees. Depending on the setting, the bottom bracket drop is 30 mm or 40 mm. This allows the bike to be perfectly tuned for fast trail fun.
