Overview
About this bike
How about the best of both worlds? Giant's Talon 27.5 5 gives you the lightweight feel of a 26-inch wheel, with the confidence and efficiency of a 29er. It all starts with Giant's ALUXX aluminum frame that's tough, yet light and responsive, just what you need for riding everywhere. Then you get a SunTour fork with 100mm of suspension to tame the rough stuff. Rough terrain or smooth, Shimano and Suntour team up to deliver 24 speeds for hill climbing, and Tektro disc brakes lend great speed control. And, Giant wheels and tires grip with authority and the Giant-branded stem, bars, and saddle are ready to go whenever you are.
