• 2005 Giant bikes rock! Do you?

    READ THIS FIRST- Everything I say about Giant, or any sponsors product I use, is all based on personal experiences. If I am sponsor'd or not, I am going to give you the truth on products. I have had nothing but good luck with Giant bikes. 2005 will mark the 7th year on a Giant bike. Thanks Giant!

    Ok, I normally don't secret massive amounts of drool when I look at bike catalogs. But, the '05 Giant bible, I mean catalog, has some sweet hoop-ty rides in it, that caused me to have to get a dixie cup to catch the drool. The Giant rep stopped in the shop last night. I think we might be picking up the line to try to push a few bikes.

    For 2005 you will be able to purchase the T-Mobile road and T.T. bikes in the lovely shade of pink (see it here). Also, they have 2 full carbon hardtails, and 2 carbon NRS bikes. Plus, throw in the new Trance, Reign, and Faith, and you have one heck of a line up for hours of giggle'n in the dirt. I can't let out too much info yet, cause the bikes are still on the down-low mode. Hell, the Giant rep only had 2 catalogs. I can tell you that alot of the bikes are using Fox forks, Race Face cranks and cockpit components, Shimano der's and shifters. The Trance look'd pretty cool. TRAAAAANNNNCE (say it in that Homer Simpson craving donuts voice). Four inches of travel front and rear.....can you say "24 hour racers lazy boy." I checked out the specs, and the top-tube length of the NRS and Trance are about the same, so it can be raced.

    Right now, I am hoping I can get on a Trance for next year. Everything I have seen posted on the web regarding how they ride is "excellante!"

    If your like me, keep checking the GIANT website daily to see if they have uploaded the 2005 rockets.

    So, I wonder if Steve from Giant and David from Cateye read the madness that is this crazy blog?

    Out.
