Nice! I almost got a Trance, but went with the Felt e30. Just picked it up this evening, super excited!!!

Welcome to the Giant family.

We may get our own section if we keep this up

Hey tretopflir, I live in Marin, CA. Fortunate to have a lot of trails to choose from in the area all within riding distance from my house.
I made a road trip two weeks ago down to SoCal (Orange county) to pick up my new/first EMTB. I couldn’t wait for the bikes to get to my LBS in NorCal as they said 6-8 weeks until they arrive. After doing research for months on the ebikes I have to say for the price the Trance E+ 2 pro is a much better bang for your buck. I ride with my neighbor who has a Haibike (2017) and he can’t keep up I.e.,(is on turbo mode the entire ride just to stay within distance). He will be soon buying the Trance E+ as well. My wife will also be getting the Giant Liv Intrigue E+1 pro (x-small) soon as they are available.
Nice to meet the Giant family. I will post some pics soon.

Cheers!

If you described that colour scheme to me in words I think I’d probably spontaneously throw up but it looks great in the metal. Very nice bike!

It’s a small.. I’m more of a med but dealer insisted that small is better for my size. More adjustable. He is a pro downhiller and ride a small 5-9. It feels awesome.

Pedals aren’t level, tyre logos not lined up on both wheels, reflectors and dork guard still on... you’ll never get a Bike Vault Super Nice with that!

Only joking - it’s very nice, that blue and black scheme is my favourite in the range.

Thanks MattyB what a rookie move on my end I be sure to get the proper bike photo edict on the next.

Cheers!
