@@tshewangbhutia6956 My first ride the pedal came loose and ruined the thread on the crank arm. I think this is more my fault or cheap pedal fault the cranks seem good otherwise.
Yes at only $200 it is definitely worth upgrading. The difference for me was closer to $500 for the SLR1 and none was available in medium. Yes a 32T is much better. When I replaces the Praxis cranks I put on Shimano SLX with a 32T chainring. I can ride up 15-20% grades without problems. The brakes and upgraded drive train with SLX and XT is definitely worth $200.
@@enricolionello9044 The fork is good for the price. 34mm stanchions make it stiff and direct. With only air pressure and rebound adjustment it lacks the refinement of higher end Fox or Rockshox forks but better than anything else in the price range. Remote Lockout is a bonus. No noises or problems so far.
t's a very good review. I ordered it today and received it at home.
Enjoy it
SIMPLE = PERFECTION , nice color
I Like this cycle
Nice and good bike
Thanx mate. How tall are you? Is Giant true in size? I am 171cm (5.6) and looking for M
I am 175cm and this is a Medium. I did put a 10mm shorter stem on later as it was just a little long for me.
S ?
Hello would you recommend this or the XTC SLR 1 ?
The SLR 1 is better so I would prefer that but also your budget is important. I can afford only the SLR 2.
@@quentinrides Have you had any problems with the Praxis Crank ?

@@quentinrides Thankyou for helping me out, XTC SLR 1 it is then 👍🏻
Gorgeous color. Did you weigh it ?
I did weigh it and it was 11.98kg without pedals. Medium size.
@@quentinrides thanks Quentin. That is very light for a bike in that price range. And are you happy with the fork ?

Can we use 34t chainring in slr 2 n slr 1
I have put a 32T on now and it looks like there would be room for 34T but maybe the limit
