Product Information

Giant XTC 29er 2 2012. 

Take note. The price is not a misprint! This bike is only $1499!

Twenty niners are really taking off with an increased range for the 2012 season available from many suppliers including 6 models from Giant, one of which is the XTC 2 featured here. 

Given the first impression gained from their size and appearance, 29ers are a surprisingly agile and stable bike that transforms your trickiest trail into something to be attacked with vigour rather than trepidation. The larger wheels easily roll over most obstacles which may have been a hindrence to regular 26" wheels, virtually smoothing out the trail before you. Momentum is another big plus for the larger wheels  with speed being carried further, which is particularly noticeable as you finish a descent and begin to roll up the next hill. Your momentum sees you further up the hill before the hard yakka begins again, than would be the case on a 26 where momentum is practically non existent.

Although designed and intended to be a sporty off roader, the XTC 2 is just as capable as a city commuter where bumps, gutters, broken bitumen, dirt trails, tram tracks and various other obstacles are a real enjoyment dampener. Some people who never intend actually going bush actually fit Hybrid tyres and hey presto, you have a sporty, robust, suspended, disc braked, flat bar/hybrid/29er do it all city bike.      

Do with it what you will. It doesn't matter as a fun time will result, whether you stick to the pavement or get down and dirty on a bush trail.
