Giant Trance X 2 Mountain Bike 2025 - Trail Full Suspension MTB



























The Giant Trance X 2 is designed for riders who favour the quick, responsive feel of 27.5” wheels combined with modern trail capability. Its ALUXX SL-grade aluminium frame is lightweight and strong, built around Giant’s proven Maestro suspension system delivering 145mm of smooth, active rear travel.
Key Features:
- Frame: ALUXX SL aluminium frame, Maestro suspension, flip chip adjustable trail geometry
- Fork: Fox 36 Rhythm fork with GRIP damper and 160mm travel
- Rear suspension: Fox Float DPS Performance shock with 145mm Maestro rear travel
- Drivetrain: SRAM NX Eagle 1x12-speed drivetrain with wide-range cassette
- Brakes: Tektro Orion HD-M475 hydraulic disc brakes with 203/180mm rotors
- Wheels: 27.5” wheels with Maxxis Assegai front and Minion DHR II rear tyres
- Standout feature: Flip chip lets you fine-tune angles and bottom bracket height
- Finance: Available with 0% APR finance
A key highlight is the adjustable frame geometry. The flip chip allows you to change the head tube and seat tube angles as well as the bottom bracket drop, letting you fine-tune handling to suit the trail conditions or your riding style. Choose a steeper setup for tighter, more technical trails, or go slacker for added confidence at speed.
Up front, the Fox 36 Rhythm fork with a GRIP damper provides 160mm of controlled travel, helping you stay composed through rock gardens, roots and steep descents. At the rear, the Fox Float DPS Performance shock is custom tuned for Giant and mounted via a trunnion design, offering a smoother feel and improved small-bump sensitivity.
The progressive suspension layout is enhanced by an Advanced Forged Composite upper rocker arm, increasing stiffness and strength while keeping overall frame weight down. This results in excellent traction and control when pushing hard through rough terrain.
Rolling on wide 27.5” rims with aggressive Maxxis Assegai and Minion DHR II tyres, the Trance X 2 delivers strong grip and confident cornering. SRAM’s NX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain provides reliable shifting and a wide gear range, while Tektro Orion four-piston brakes offer powerful, consistent stopping on long descents.
Occasionally, without notice, manufacturers change product design and/or specifications.
