Hi everyone after 2 years of riding my bfe I'm after a full sus again I like the look of a few but was wondering what people's experience of the giant trance 27.5 is
I ride trail centres and natural stuff but need something that can handle my love of a bit of dh and fairly big jumps - I managed the 40ft Mark on the last big booster on surface to air the other day on my brothers comencal meta 4" (great bike btw)
So thoughts/opinions please

I love my Trance 1. Had it for 4 months now, and loved every ride. I came from a Hartail mind, so thats probably why!. It goes uphill great, and is a right blast downhills. I cant do jumps like you though!
Go for it i say.

A friend has just bought one. I like it a lot. Its not just good for the money good, but good good. In fact it's ace.
I'd want to make some changes but that's personal choice.

I tried one and just did not liked it.
I have a meta AM 26'' and the trance feel wrong in the respect that it's almost the same position on the bike, but the bike is nowhere as good DH as the meta is. HA is not slack enough and BB way to low.
!If you liked the old meta, you'll like the new meta/
