Product Information

Giant Transend 1

 The Transend 1 just might be the quintessential commuting bike. It would even make a pretty good middle distance touring bike, equipped as it is with high quality shifters, Deore derailleurs and disc brakes. It really is ready to go as a serious commuting/touring bike. Coming with the standard equipment of a high quality alloy rack with tie down strap as well as mudguards gives added value as these options can be worth $150 if purchased separately. The riding style of this bike is relaxed enough not to be too aggressive or stretched out but not quite as upright as a hybrid. So you can get some quick efficient riding from home to work or wherever you travel.
Sensibly, it has rigid front forks, rather than suspension, and also has a regular (non suspension) seat post, both of which help to save some weight and cost and which help with a good positive feel, but combined with 700 x 32 tyres still gives the bike a comfortable ride. The Transend 1 saddle and grips are also a feature of this bike as they are comfortable and give great support when riding. Overall this is an exceptional bike which has the ability to tackle the city juggernaut of commuting or being packed up with gear and ridden for many miles on a holiday through you favourite scenic routes. Perhaps a trundle round the suburbs with the kids too!
Call in for a test ride today. Giant offer a lifetime warranty on frame and fork for this bike. The paint, like all bikes in the Giant range, is a very high quality. The same stuff that is used on BMW 5 and 7 series to be exact. We also stock pannier bags, lights and other accessories/clothing to help you get under way all at great prices!

If you prefer one without disc brakes look at the 2011 model Transend 1.
