Overview
About this bike
Giant's Method 01 is tough enough for the streets and the dirt jumps. The frame and fork are crafted with reliable chromoly and steel for hitting the big stuff, as well as learning to hit the big stuff. The 3-piece chromoly cranks, Mid bottom bracket, and 36-spoke wheels with 14mm rear axle are ready for the big hits. Tektro has you covered with their powerful U-brake for all the stopping power you'll need, and you've got a lighter, higher clearance 25/9 micro gearing.
