i then pressed on 'details' under the picture and it said "Fork FX Alloy Disc w/tapered wall thickness, straight blades"!
i am really confused! does anyone know what's going on?

Here is the Scoop.
The FX 7.4 has a carbon fork.
The FX 7.4 DISC does NOT have carbon Fork.

If you do more Pavement, get an FX.
If you are a Lighter rider(180 lbs or lighter) get an FX
If you want more speed, get an FX

If you do more dirt trails, get a DS
If you are over 180lbs, get a DS
If you want more durability, get a DS.

Good Luck and happy riding.

Ps..Giant..you are my Hero!
