The last Giant Trance X was released in 2020 during the early days of an unprecedented pandemic-induced bike buying boom. Back then almost anything with two wheels would sell out almost instantly, and indeed the Trance X proved to be a popular option right off the bat.

However, our experience with the carbon model was somewhat overshadowed by the Fox Live Valve suspension. It wasn’t particularly well tuned for the bike, especially the fork, which made for a harsher ride than expected. Luckily for us we were also able to review the alloy version with a regular fork and shock, and came away thoroughly impressed with its plush ride quality and efficient pedalling manners.

Looking to build upon that platform, Giant has introduced a totally redesigned Trance X for this year. There’s no Live Valve in sight, but instead a whole suite of changes that are likely to boost this do-it-all bike’s appeal.

To find out how all the changes play out on the trail and how it stacks up against the competition, we’ve been testing the Giant Trance X on home turf over the past couple of months.
