Anybody know the geo on it? Crap? Says it comes with headset, cranks, BB and pedals :weak:

Sort of looks like a Monty with giant stays.

Yeah...it's a 26...but I've searched my ass off for geometry to satisfy my own curiousity and have come up empty handed....Giant's website doesn't even have it, but a bunch of UK stores have it...WTF???

i'm pretty sure that the giant japan site has geometry info on it. i don't think that it is much better than the old one though.

Saw a picture of Martyn Hawyes a while back riding one of these but forgot about it. At least Giant are finally making an effort to keep up.

What is the go with bent down tubes? Seems retarded to me.

I like the look of it.

I also like the way that its a FACT that because its made by giant the geometry is 'crap'.

I actually do like the look of it.

Maybe it's to keep everyone from complaining that it looks like a coust.

at least they are still making trials frame/bikes, one of few major companies still give a damn about trials
