Reviews

Summary

The Giant Full E+ trail bike is praised for its powerful SyncDrive Pro motor, offering quick pickup and sustainable torque across assistance levels, alongside the excellent Maestro suspension platform. It's noted for its good range and all-round trail capabilities, though some reviews mention its upright position isn't ideal for steep climbs and the tyres could be more aggressive for technical terrain. The bike's handling and suspension performance are frequently highlighted as strengths, making it a capable choice for trail riding.

Pros
  • Powerful SyncDrive Pro motor with quick pickup and sustainable torque

  • Excellent Maestro suspension platform

  • Good range and all-round trail capabilities

  • High-quality components and finishing kit

  • Custom 500Wh battery by Panasonic

Cons
  • Upright position not ideal for very steep climbs

  • Tyres could be more aggressive for technical terrain

  • Battery depletion not linear

  • Considerable weight makes it less nimble than conventional trail bikes

Key Quotes
The Pro motor is three times as quick on the pickup.

Apr 2017

Price: $5300.00 | Model Year: 2017 A full suspension electric mountain bike with capable hardware, excellent dealer support and impressive range, four frame sizes accommodate a range of riders, impressive pricepoint. 22-speed drivetrain with Shimano Deore XT Shadow Plus allows you to engage a clutch to tighten the chain and bolster shifting (important given the 80 Nm peak motor torque rating). A full suspension electric mountain bike with capable hardware, excellent dealer support and impressive range, four frame sizes accommodate a range of riders, impressive pricepoint.

Observations
  • A full suspension electric mountain bike with capable hardware, excellent dealer support and impressive range, four frame sizes accommodate a range of riders, impressive pricepoint

  • 22-speed drivetrain with Shimano Deore XT Shadow Plus allows you to engage a clutch to tighten the chain and bolster shifting (important given the 80 Nm peak motor torque rating)

  • Custom battery pack design fits neatly into the downtube but can be charged on or off the frame, compact display and button pad were large enough to read and press but stayed out of the way

  • Stiff thru-axles with boost hubs (longer than normal) support 2.6" tires, tapered head tube and ebike specific suspension from Fox is stiff, Maestro suspension design improves stopping and reduces bob

Giant Full-E+ 0 SX first ride review

Jul 2016 · Matthew Loveridge

Set to Power, the Full-E+ has enough poke that even on quite steep climbs you can sit back and let the bike do the heavy lifting, pedalling gently to activate the assist.
