Dec 2021 · Ian Collins

Upon fully revising the Trance 29, the folks at Giant were kind enough to send us a sample in the Advanced Pro 1 level spec for testing

[R]eviewed // Giant Trance Advanced Pro 29

Dec 2021

For as long as we can remember the Trance has been Giant’s do-it-all trail bike and whilst the platform has been constantly evolving over the years it’s never really been a bike that would set your heart racing with excitement… until now! Fresh for 2022 Giant have completely redesigned every square inch of the new Trance and in doing so they created a bike with super charged trail performance. Gone is the appearance of a skinny little XC bike, and […]

The Beta Tests - Giant Trance X Advanced Pro 29 0

Apr 2021 · Michael Ferrentino

The “better mousetrap” theory is tested in the Trance X 29. Spry handling and burly intent meet a mess of ones and zeros in FOX Live Valve

Highs
  • Fun, lively handling

  • Top shelf componentry

  • Live Valve adds versatility to otherwise burly intent

Lows
  • Bird's-nest wiring

  • Live Valve needs further refinement to really shine

  • It ain’t cheap

Sep 2020 · Robin Weaver

While these are still early impressions, it's an exciting new trail bike that’s eager to cover ground quickly and feels incredibly efficient thanks to the Fox Live Valve system. You’ll need to take some time trying to quieten that cable rattle down though

Highs
  • Great geometry and that steep seat angle

  • Well-considered spec

  • Fox Live Valve

Lows
  • Live Valve adds complication and lots of extra cabling which can rattle on rougher trails

  • No high-end option without Live Valve
