Giant Trance X Advanced E+ Elite 2023 Bike
Climb faster, ride longer, and grin wider on the Giant Trance X Advanced E+ Elite.
This is a carbon full-suspension electric trail bike for riders who want big-mountain range without the shuttle. The Trance X Advanced E+ turns long Santa Monica Mountains days into repeatable laps, so you climb more, descend more, and never watch the trailhead fade. Serious e-MTB riders will feel the difference on every steep pitch.
It's right for you if:
You love technical trail riding and want more descents per ride without shuttling.
You're returning to riding or riding with fitter friends and want to keep pace on the climbs.
You want a premium, do-it-all trail bike that handles chunky terrain and long backcountry loops.
Why you'll love it:
The SyncDrive Pro motor delivers strong, natural assist, so steep climbs feel like rolling hills.
Generous trail travel soaks up rocks and roots, so you stay confident and in control on the way down.
A carbon front triangle keeps the bike responsive and planted despite its power.
Big-capacity battery means real all-day range, so your ride ends when you decide it does.
The tech you get: a carbon composite front triangle, Giant SyncDrive Pro motor (85Nm, 250W nominal, torque-sensing) with a high-capacity EnergyPak battery, Class 1 pedal-assist to 20mph, and trail-tuned full suspension. Real-world range varies with rider weight, terrain, and assist mode.

Highlights
Power that feels natural
The SyncDrive Pro motor, co-developed with Yamaha, delivers 85Nm of torque to float you up climbs. Strong, smooth assist that reads your pedaling instead of fighting it.
Slim battery, light feel
The ultra-slim EnergyPak Smart 400 keeps weight low so the bike handles like a trail bike, not a tank. Add the range extender when the ride runs long.
Suspension that adapts on the fly
Fox Live Valve electronic suspension reads the terrain and adjusts automatically. Firm on the climbs, open on the descents, no lever to flip.
140mm Maestro plus a mullet
A 29-inch front and 27.5-inch rear pair rollover speed with quick, playful handling. The 140mm Maestro rear soaks up the rough stuff so you keep pushing.
Wireless shifting, dialed
SRAM GX Eagle AXS delivers crisp, wireless gear changes across a 10-52T range. Clean cockpit, precise shifts, one less cable to service.
Grip and stopping for real trails
Maxxis Minion DHF and Dissector tires team with SRAM Code brakes on big 220mm and 200mm rotors. Confidence to carry speed into steep, loose terrain.
