The Intrigue 29 is Liv's first foray into trail bikes.

The Giant Trance 29 3 is an excellent trail bike, and our Top Pick for Short Travel in this price range. This 29er may only have 115mm of rear-wheel travel...
Energetic playful feel
Lighter weight
12-speed drivetrain
Modern trail bike geometry
Fork needed immediate service
Can be overwhelmed in more aggressive terrain

The Giant Trance 29 3 is a sprightly cross-country weapon made for mile munching and groomed singletrack. It quickly runs out of travel when the going gets rough, though, and some of the spec choices of this base level model are a bit under par.

Price: $5565.00 | Model Year: 2019 | A beautiful full-suspension electric mountain bike with quality components, excellent warranty and dealer support, and four frame sizes to accommodate riders of all sizes
A beautiful full-suspension electric mountain bike with quality components, excellent warranty and dealer support, and four frame sizes to accommodate riders of all sizes
Color-matched components look great along with the seamless downtube integration of the battery and internally routed cabling
Huge range of 11 to 50 teeth on a 1x12 SRAM drivetrain, proprietary Giant SyncDrive Pro mid-drive motor and powerful SRAM Code R hydraulic disc brakes
Battery charging port is in the path of the left crank arm, and charging the battery off the bike requires a separate dongle that could get lost

A trail bike that likes to play
Aug 2019 · Paul Burwell
The “+” denotes 2.8in tyres, the “Pro” tag indicates SyncDrive Pro motor, so the entry-level Giant Trance E+ 3 Pro tested here gets all best e-bike tech.
Smooth power delivery and plenty of it
Mismatched suspension and limited gear range

Wil delivers us his longterm review of the 2019 Giant Trance 29 – a very 'un-Giant like' 29er trail bike with progressive geometry
