- What's up UA-camrs!
It's me, M-Leeze, here to give you the in-depth look at the brand new 2021 Giant Trance X 2 mountain bike. I was fortunate enough to get my hands on this bike from my LBS, so I wanted to share some more details and give people a closer look since there isn't much content on this particular bike at the moment. This is my first video that I've ever uploaded to UA-cam, so I hope you enjoy!
Stay tuned more videos of this bike in action to come!
Ride safe, stay blessed, and always #EXPLOREMORE - Спорт
Mark - I have this same bike and recently upgraded the (heavy) wheels with a set of Industry 9 Enduro S28h wheels/Hydra hubs and a e*thirteen carbon riser bar. What a difference!! Dropped 1.5lbs of weight, got better engagement, and the carbon bar really decreases vibration in my hands. Totally different and better bike with these upgrades. Ride On!!
Got mine coming next week! I kind of fell into this bike and wasn't actually even shopping it. Good video.
Cool video and awesome music in the video too!
Really great video! I this I might order this soon!
Great video, very informational!

That’s a sweet ride ma dude! 🔥
Appreciate it G! I actually no longer have this bike, I'm on a SC Hightower now. Lovin it so far!
Pretty good first look video man, especially for just getting into the sport. Good job and make more content! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great review man! I’m just looking to get myself my first full-suspension bike and the Trance X 2 seems to be the best for me. So, after 9+ months using it, do you have any issues / down sides with that bike? Thanks bro.
Good vibes from Mexico ✌🏼
I just picked one of these on the 15th. Immediately swapped out the grips, seat, and pedals. Loving it so far!!!
what do you think, im about to buy one, you think it still worth it?
hahuahuahuaah
Great video. Looking to pick one up but I think I am going to wait until next season. What are your thoughts on the bike now that is is a month after your video was posted?
UPPPPPP
Uaaauu
Hey nice review , quick question why did u get rid of this bike?? was thinking of picking 1 up..thx
Nice video bro, How is going in the rockgarders section? im between the canyon spectral CF7 29 , GIANT REIGN 2 and thisone. hard decision ! thanks
I read the giant has lifetime guarantee on the frame. The spectral cf7 has 150mm forefork and is 500 euro more.
I"m wondering how much extra weight the X adds over the normal Trance 29 with that meatier fork?
hope to see your riding video of that bike soon :D great video btw
Thanks for watching! 🤙🏽
Uaaauu
What do you think of this bike compared to Norco fluid 1 or rocky mountain instinct alloy 30
Hey mark, so it’s been a year since u got the bike, how do you like it? Is it good for jumps? Do you wish you got something else?
Great Video mate, great looking and well spec'd bike. Think it might be the perfect replacement for my 2018 Trance 2 27.5
Absolutely! Thanks for watching!
Great video man, that’s gonna be my new bike!!!!

UPPPPPP
Hey great video!! Im actually on my way to pick up a giant trance x2 right now. Are you still happy with the bike?
Muito bom!
How are you liking it? I just ordered one
@@kmart33 im loving mine that i got a month ago
@@nicholasmonsen633 glad to hear i cant wait for mine... I get it in Dec .. praying for no snow so i can get on it this year!
Hi! Great video! How about uphill performances compared to a front mtb? Is it so different and hard to go uphill? Thanks for your attention and stay safe
I'm glad you chose mountain biking as its really a nice sport and yes, it will get you connected with nature. I think you chose the right bike for your situation. Not that I don't like the Hightower, I own one but I know they are hard to get. But I know you'll enjoy the Giant, its a really great buy and your money goes further with Giant. Greetings from a Colorado youtuber.
Appreciate you watching! I actually subscribe to your channel and learned alot about the Hightower through your vids. My heart is still set on the Hightower. Just something about the look and feel of a Santa Cruz bike that I love, even though a bit overpriced lol ill be releasing a video soon about why I chose to wait for the Hightower.
Keep pumping out the great content!
Great review dude!
UPPPPPP
Boaaa
Great video brother! Looking forward to more content! Keep it up!
I just recently started pedaling MTB a couple months ago as well and purchased a Giant Trance 3 29er. Love it so far!
Thanks for watching! Keep spreading the stoke 🤙🏽
Love the vid! Editing on point. Keep it coming!
hahuahuahuaah
if you are looking for your marshmellows, they are in your ears. =P
Total sentido kkkk
Same situation. Should I wait for the Hightower or get the Trance X?
Uaaauu
Total sentido kkkk

How much dropper travel does it have stock
Hey bro I’ve been looking for this bike everywhere i’m in socal as well do you mind telling me where you got it?
I got min aug, took a week to order. Fullerton Bicycles 👍
What is the travel mm on dropper?
Shop I deal with says they can’t get one until March, what the heck? Any other options? I want one now!
Boaaa
Lol we getting them in a week or two in Nepal and we a third world country bro.
Great Video, now I am desperate to buy a Trance X. Your are all the fortunate, here in Germany the first Bikes will be shipped in February or March 2021. To bad Germany is not considered Trance X worthy 😂😳
Thanks for watching! Sucks to hear that the backorder out there is so long. Finding a bike of your desire these days is like winning the lottery lol
What size frame is this? S/M/L ?
Nice Video, Our LBS has this one and the Trek Fuel Ex7 in stock. Also the DTC brand Fezzari has Cascade Peak. All of the bikes have same price but Fezzari offers better components. Fezzari is going to take longer to deliver , So may pull on Trek.. Not sure yet

Boaaa
Better than a reign 2?
Great review, I think you've answered all the questions I had about this amazing bike. I'm looking forward to an update video to see how the Trance X is holding up after a few months of riding. FWIW, I have a 7-year old Giant Roam hybrid bike (with Shimano drivetrain and brakes) that has been absolutely bullet-proof, so I think the Trance X will hold up nicely. Stay safe.

Uaaauu
Hey you are riding with you clutch on the derailleur unlocked
dropper lenght?
Looking forward to your review! Are the bars 800 or 780? The website says both. Ive preordered mine. Have to wait till March!
Nìce
Did you test it on the road yet? If so how does it ride?
Interessante
I am supposed thick one up just like this in a couple weeks. I have subscribed please make more videos I want to follow you and see you more on this bike!
Thats awesome Ron! I'm sure you'll love it! I will definitely post some vids of this bike in action. Thanks for watching!
That was a voice text....I’m usually more literate!😄
i want one so bad but I'm unable to find one anywhere in Ontario, Canada, people are saying preorder for January to March but I've heard of people being on them already so I don't know where they get them
Brant cycle in Burlington or To Wheels in London getting some end of May.... no one else will have them until next summer
@@kmart33 I saw there were a few in stock in Magog, QC, so I drove like 7 hours there to pick one up lol
at least I had a fun time at Bromont on the new bike! got some cool footage of the first ride
@@andrewnitu SO sick man your a true rider... rather then wait til May I found one in Florida ($200 cheaper after conversion and tax) but I have to wait until December to get it... praying for no snow til Jan-Feb :)
@@kmart33 cheaper? how haha that's crazy, well done!
also yea haha let's pray for no snow but I had freezing rain here in Toronto last night so not a great sign :-)
@@andrewnitu What shop did you get yours from?
i just purchased this bike and it was stated that it came with 800 mm bars and they were 780.
Nice video! Just got into biking this summer as well, bought a Roscoe 8 which is great but after going to a downhill park I'm looking at the Trance's now. For FS the Giants can't be beat on price here in Canada.
Thats awesome Riley! I can't wait to take this bike to the local bike parks to see how it performs. And you're right, hard to beat the value that Giant offers with their bikes 👍🏽
agreed with the value.
I think in the US something like the Ripmo AF, Commencal, etc is the best value, but in CAD the prices for those bikes are converted directly from USD.
For some reason in Canada Giant used a much better conversion rate, so they're great value here.
Beautiful 😍 bike, just sold my stance 2. Progressed and need/want a better trail bike. Can't wait to get a hold of a trance X. 🤙
Btw, what size did you get?
Awesome, would highly recommend upgrading to this bike! I have a size M and I'm 5'8". Feels really comfortable so far. Thanks for watching! 🤙🏽
@@marklopez5267 thanks bud, my 2020 stance 2 was a medium and it was a good fit. I'm 5'9".
@@Keithmeister9 at 5.9, 5.10 you should try out an L frame. You might be surprised how that feels. Most riders within an inch to 2 of the next size go to the larger frame feels better with the longer reach.
Try both sizes if the bike shop has them.
@@PeterCPRail8748 thanks, will do 👍
@@Keithmeister9 that's true but for the extra room, u may have to spend more; swap for a shorter travel dropper post if fully extended is too tall for u, the large will usually come.with a longer travel post...as well as a shorter stem if the reach if too far out. That's what i had to do for my bike when i go up a size large. Im 5'9" as well.
Nice, I just ordered the same bike in XL. I was originally looking at the 3 but felt this was a little nicer upgrade off the bat. Hit up Marshall Canyon in La Verne sometime.
Thanks for watching! I've heard great things about Marshall Canyon. I'll definitely have to check it out sometime!
@@marklopez5267 Yea we roll up in a group sat & sunday mornings. It's got good trails
What size did you go with? I’m 5’9” ish. Can’t decide between the large or medium size
I'm 5'10 and got the Medium.
Interessante
Total sentido kkkk
@@munro9 glad to see this, I am 5'9.5ish and I ordered a medium. is it fitting well for you?
@@andrewnitu I've tried the large and can say the medium will definitely fit you the best.
This video help me to buy this bike.... 👍👍.. Perfect video
Glad I was able to help provide more insight! Thanks for watching 🤙🏽
Muito bom!
own the same bike..its a ripper
Hey mate great vid , just wondering if the back wheel has a quick release or do you need tools to take it off ? Thanks
You will need a hex key to remove both the front and rear wheels.
Seems to be missing the usual fox quick release axle on the front.
both come with a thru axle without a quick release. which is a big plus in my book. more security!
Can we get an update?
Nice been waiting on video on this sweet bike I’m planning on getting the trance x 3
I would like to see how you like it on slow technical turns
Glad I was able to help give you a closer look! Its a great bike, I find myself loving it more and more each day. I'll be sure to give some more feedback once I get some more time on it. Thanks for watching!
What size of dropper comes on the medium Trance X?
150mm on the size M frame.
gostei
Did anyone else notice how dinged his rims were
I got a fathom 2.. think this will be my first full sus
I wonder if it claims better than Trance 29 non X ?
Trance x is tubeless ready. Does that mean that the bike is tubeless right out of the box?
yes you'll just need to add the sealant inside of the tires.
I own the X3 in 27.5 Good Gray and Glossy Black .... purple grips, pedals and accents. The only thing that I hate from the bike is the position of the anchors the bottle cage, they are wayyyyy too high on the frame and that makes you use a side loaded bottle cage and a very small bottle.
Was kinda hoping to see how the flip chip actually transforms the bike. Nevertheless, a good video indeed. 👍
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll try to incorporate something like that when I put out a review vid in a couple of months. Appreciate you watching!
Shoowww
Total sentido kkkk
How much does it weight?
It weighs about 32.5 lbs.
hahuahuahuaah
The wheels are pretty heavy. Changing out for lighter alloy or, if your budget will go there, carbon would make a massive difference. I have carbon wheels on my Trance 29er and it weighs 12.8 kilos (28.2 lbs) with out pedals, bottle cage, or pump.
So this is trek remedy 8 competition ?
how much did this bike cost
This particular build retails for $3k
Total sentido kkkk
So I called my local shop here in South Florida and they said they won't have it till February 2021. How can I get it like yesterday? Lol.
Dang man what a bummer! Bikes are a hot commodity these days! Hopefully you can get your hands on something soon 🤞🏽
what shop did you go to??
Fullerton Bicycles. Highly recommended! World class customer service.
what's the price on this bike?
$3k
I bet they'll sell a ton of these.
Wouldn't be surprised. Great bike at a great value when compared to other bikes in the same category 👍
hahuahuahuaah
