boing boing Advantages: light weight frame Disadvantages: price? in february 2004 i had a phone call from my best friend matt, the total length of the call was about 6 seconds and consisted of him telling me that i had been entered into two cycling events! after he had hung up and i had got over the shock of the news( it was shocking because i hadn't riden a bike since 1996 when i was unceremoniously ejected from my bike by a passing car!) i phoned him back and tried to find out what events i haad been entered ... ...small downhill event in Aldershot this was on march the 13th (i finished 38th out of 53) but the second one will be a lot harder, it's the london to brighton! once it had sunk in that i was actually going to have to ride a bike and do some vigorous excercise i realised that i would have to buy a new bike.

Excellent Bike Advantages: Brakes are fantastic, really lightweight, very well made, overall great Disadvantages: too many low gears, not enough high gears, uncomfortable saddle. But don't be put off... ...We already have 2 other Giant bikes in the house and I was more than happy to follow this advice. So far I have done nearly 600 miles on this bike in the 5 months i've had it. My choice was simple between a Yukon, Rainier and this one - the Terrago. I tried to balance price with how good I wanted it to be, I found one of these for £325, and bit their hand off for one. This bike has a massive 27 gears, 2 disc brakes and a lightweight aluminium frame. ... ...I recieved it, it took quite some putting together, but that was fine and was all fairly simple. It feels really solid and really high quality from Giant, yet the frame is really light. When put together it feels really lightweight and the difference when riding is huge, the weight makes a bit difference and getting going from standstill is really easy, fantastic. Having 9 hears on one finger is also really good, much simpler to use, however I very ...

Value mounatin bike Advantages: Good value for money Disadvantages: soft rims The 99 Giant ATX 840 is a pretty good bike for the money. It comes with a Alivio/ STX-RC component mix, and a Rockshox Jett T2 elastomer fork, which I have upgraded to Marzocchi Bomber Z5 fork, which performs well, despite the slow rebound. I have noticed no problems except for the rear rim I bent hitting a curb at high speed. This bike has a stiff, light, 6061-T6 alloy frame. I have found that upgrading to a riser bar makes riding this bike noticibly ... robinson1010 05.07.2000 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Giant Cross Country ATX 840	Value for money Durability How does it compare to ...

I went out on my first trial on the stumpjumper and found it didn’t suit me at all, when taking it back to the shop they had an anthem 2 also on trial so I decided to give that a go as well. Going from my FSR (with 100m) I thought that I would like a bike with more suspension (stump jumper 140mm) but I found that the epic and the anthem suited me more and I found that the smaller suspension did not stop me ... clarerdc 22.06.2007 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Giant Anthem 2	Value for money Durability How does it compare to ...
Excellent bike Advantages: Price, quality of components Disadvantages: Softer seat may help! I chose this bike after months of searching and i havnt regretted buying it. I wanted a bike which i could afford which also gave me the quality of bikes in a higher price range and this ticked both boxes. It rides well, smooth gear changes, excellent brakes and no fault yet. I fitted my whels with gel-filled innertubes and except for a few mishaps (not the bikes fault) it has run smoother still. I have ridden it on rode, where it glides along, and ... ...The only trouble with this being a mountain bike is the fact it is a hard-tail, meaning no back suspention. If you want anything serious out of this bike a new seat would benefit you as it can get tough off-road. Overall the bike is strong, sturdy frame, slick gears though may shake your backside around a bit! But it is a hardtail afterall! ... kingpin_penguin 20.02.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Giant Boulder Trail	Value for money Durability How does it compare to ...
