The Giant saddles are terrible. I use a charge spoon probably the best rated saddle around for the money !!

New bike day!! Picked up the new Trance and took it for a blast around some sweet single track! Changed the seat to my usual specialized one, put a slightly longer stem for my setup and put the tan wall tires on as I’m still a kid from the 90’s! It rode amazingly and I loved every minute! 
bought it from a chinese website.. u should able to find it in AliExpress

Picked up my new Trance last week and have ridden every day, the poor old Rocky Mountain isn’t getting a look in.

Great ride in the Christchurch Port Hills, 28km, 600+ metres climbing elevation and beautiful views to top it off.
Rode mostly in eco with nearly 40% battery left after a 2 1/2 hour ride, awesome bikes!

Looking good. How are you finding the coil shock and boosted fork compared to the original suspension?

A shot from my trip to the lake district last weekend. Bike was great on the trials. Still having a problem with the thing not turning off when the battery's in but otherwise faultless.

Absolutely loving the coil rear shock! Better traction, small bump performance and support. Just went unto the 550lb coil from the 500 which gives more mid and bottom-out support. The 170mm fork gives a slightly higher BB which I like and a slacker HTA which is awesome for the steep tech trails. Also loving the higher rise bar. The bike feels like a DH rig and just rails up and DH
Now I have suspension envy. I was already considering the front fork springs but I'm liking the idea of that rear coil too.

Absolutely love my new ebike. Can't believe I took so long to ponder if I should get one, now I can't stop riding! So many of my mates initially to the pi#@ but after a blast they too are converted.

Got a new rear fender today and went out for a ride around the hood.
It's made by CCM and has an interesting strap and screw type attachment system, along with a hinge. Like it!
