Giant Stance Bike
Your first real trail bike, and the only one you'll need for years, meet the Giant Stance.
The Stance is a full-suspension trail bike for riders getting serious about dirt. It's the easiest way into confident, capable off-road riding without overpaying. Point it at the foothill singletrack above the Valley and let the suspension do the work while you learn to flow.
It's right for you if:
You're moving up from a hardtail and want real rear suspension
You ride local foothill and Santa Monica Mountains singletrack on weekends
You want trail capability without a boutique price tag
You want our Lowest Price Guarantee backing your first big bike
Why you'll love it:
FlexPoint rear suspension smooths out roots and rock so you ride longer with less fatigue
Lightweight ALUXX aluminum frame keeps the climbs manageable
Wide-range drivetrain gives you gears for steep ups and fast flats
Hydraulic disc brakes deliver confident, controlled stopping on loose descents
Trail geometry keeps you balanced and in control as your skills grow
The tech you get: an ALUXX aluminum frame, FlexPoint single-pivot rear suspension, an air-sprung fork, a wide-range 1x drivetrain, and hydraulic disc brakes.

Highlights
Full-Suspension 29er
120mm out back and 130mm up front, matched to big 29-inch wheels. The bike settles into flowy, technical trails and lets you carry speed with a lot more confidence.
FlexPoint Suspension System
Giant's efficient single-pivot design tracks the ground so your rear wheel stays hooked up through chatter. Traction where you need it, on climbs and descents alike.
Contact Switch Dropper Post
Drop the saddle on the fly and move with the terrain instead of around it. This is the upgrade that changes how a trail bike rides, and it comes standard.
Shimano Deore 1x10 Drivetrain
Clean, reliable Deore shifting with a wide 11-46 range. Grind up the fire road, then let it rip on the way back down.
Tubeless-Ready Wheelset
Alloy 29 wheels ready to run tubeless, so you can drop pressure for grip and shrug off pinch flats. Ask us to set them up before you roll out.
Maxxis Forekaster Tires
A fast, versatile 2.35-inch tread with an EXO casing that handles Valley singletrack and rockier terrain without slowing you down.
