Yeah man im sold on the Maestro suspension. I dont think i'd care for any other type or rear suspension ever again. The Yukon FX had it and that was a cheap bike and it felt better than alot of my friends expensive bikes. So when i sold it i looked around at other brands but ended up with this bike. Another Giant with the Maestro. I think i will own this bike for a good while im so happy with it.

I'm wanting to get one of those. Maybe willl.. How aggressive do you find it? By that I mean, how much abuse could it take? Since it isn't a dedicated cross country bike.

Noob question: what's the wrap on the chain-stay @drive-side? Seems like some of you guys use a built-up foam/??? section instead of the stickon decal stuff used on road bikes?

The Giant Trance i have ridden once so far very hard. And its a so much easier bike to handle since it is alot lighter and of course has much better components. And who said that the Giant Trance X3 was not a cross country bike? From what i read on the bike before3 i bought it, i hear it is one of the best with THEE best price tag

I thought you just meant if you could use it as a cross country bike and can it take the abuse. Well if its a more of an all mountain bike then id say you answered your own question. lol But yeah man. I rode it pretty hard for 4 hrs Sunday and it does everything so well. If you are thinking of getting one id tell you that you are doing a very smart thing. I love it
