Shop all Giant Shop sale GiantPerformance and efficiency go hand in hand with the Giant Trance Advanced Pro 29 2 Complete Mountain Bike. A fast and stable medium duty trail bike, the Trance is perfect for the rider that is looking to step into the 29'er realm. Ample rear Maestro® suspension coupled to a forged carbon rocker arm and a hefty Fox fork combine with the wide range SRAM NX drivetrain, making the Giant Trance Advanced Pro 29 2 Complete Mountain Bike a top choice on long variable rides and sporty single track.
Advanced Composite Carbon Frame – Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in their own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.
Advanced Forged Composite Upper Rocker Arm – A state-of-the-art high-pressure molding process is used to produce complex-shaped carbon fiber components that are lighter, stiffer, and stronger than similar components made from aluminum. This technology is used in critical performance parts such as Maestro Suspension rocker links.
115 mm Maestro® Suspension – Whatever off-road adventures you seek, Giant's Maestro Suspension helps you make the most of your efforts. Control, traction, comfort, speed -- you get more of everything with Maestro. From fast and efficient XC bikes to long-travel downhill setups, Maestro is an adaptable full-suspension platform that offers smooth, active rear suspension for any type of trail and all kinds of terrain.
Trunnion Mount – The latest Giant off-road models feature updated Maestro Suspension systems with a new Trunnion Mount shock and Advanced Forged Composite rocker arm. The Trunnion Mount allows for a longer shock shaft, which produces a lower leverage ratio and smoother ride performance. It also allows for shorter chainstays to improve quickness and agility on the trail. The Advanced Forged composite rocker arm weighs less than the previous aluminum version while being stiffer and stronger. Together, these innovations result in the following core benefits.
Fox Float DPS Performance Shock – Performance Series FLOAT DPS shocks have fewer adjustments than Factory Series (no Open mode adjust tuning range), and have black anodized air sleeve and body instead of Genuine Kashima Coat. A Performance graphics package ties in the black-on-black look.
Shock Adjustments – 3 Position Compression (Open / Pedal / Lock) | External Rebound | Air Spring Pressure
OverDrive – OverDrive provides up to 15 percent more torsional steering stiffness than straight steerer-tube designs. This translates into much more accurate steering input from a rider's hands, through the handlebar and stem, and down to the front wheel. Whether hammering uphill or carving through a corner, OverDrive transmits input directly to the front wheel for more precise handling.
MegaDrive – A massive rectangular downtube and oversized toptube work in unison to provide superior front end lateral and torsional steering precision. The precisely engineered, rectangular shaped downtube yields unprecedented steering and pedaling stiffness.
Powercore – A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 92mm wide bottom-bracket design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.
Boost – Wider hub spacing (110mm front/148mm rear) results in stiffer wheels for added control plus more tire clearance and an improved chainline for optimal drivetrain performance.
Fox 34 Rhythm – Rhythm forks share the same air spring as the Float 34, but feature 6000 series aluminum upper tubes along with the FIT GRIP damper.
Fork Adjustment – 3-Position GRIP Damper (Open, Medium, Firm) | External Rebound | Air Spring Pressure
SRAM NX Eagle™ – Eagle™ technology revolutionized the mountain bike experience by offering riders a 1x drivetrain solution that is purpose-built to be lightweight, strong and intuitive, with the gear range to ride on any terrain. NX Eagle™ drivetrain is the newest addition to the Eagle™ 1x ecosystem, and shares technologies with XX1, X01 and GX drivetrains, which makes it 100-percent compatible within the Eagle™ ecosystem. NX Eagle™ delivers an ease of entry that will bring the benefit of Eagle™ range and Eagle™ performance to more riders than ever before.
SRAM Guide T Brakeset – Guide T brings the consistent performance that you have come to expect from SRAM's lightweight Guide four-piston caliper. Pair this with MatchMaker™ for a clean looking bar set-up, plus the ease of use with Bleeding Edge™ drip-free bleed ports and you have a smart budget minded brake that keeps you in control.
Maxxis Minion DHF Front Tire – With a tread design that deftly balances rolling speed with braking and cornering traction, it's hard to find fault with the Minion DHF. That's probably why it's one of the most imitated tires in mountain biking.
Maxxis DHR II Rear Tire – With side knobs borrowed from the legendary Minion DHF, but widened to provide more support, the DHR II corners like no other. The center tread features ramped leading edges to improve acceleration and sipes to create a smooth transition when leaning the bike. Paddle-like knobs on the center tread dig in under hard braking and help keep the bike under control. Pair it with a Minion DHF up front for the ultimate aggressive trail riding tire combo!
Giant Contact Switch Dropper Seatpost – Trail conditions change in the blink of an eye -- transition from steep climbs to gnarly descents and never skip a beat with the Contact Switch seatpost.
