 They're also extremely knowledgeable in all things that have to do with bikes. They're very family friendly and so they can help you with any of your bike needs. Well today we have the Giant Stance 2 and the 29er version. This is Giant's entry level bike into full suspension mountain bikes

Hey in this video we're going to be reviewing the Giant Stance 2 in the 29er version. [Music] Hey guys, welcome back to the channel! Today we got another great bike that has been loaned to us from our good friends at Truly Spoken Mark and the good people down there let us take this bike to test it and review it and they are our local Giant dealership. They're also extremely knowledgeable in all things that have to do with bikes. They're very family friendly and so they can help you with any of your bike needs

 [music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] So [Music] [Applause] Okay guys, let's take a look at the geometry of this bike and see how that translates into the rod because that's what really makes a bike feel a certain way. Every bike has a different flavor or feel and the way that it rides and so geometry plays a very important part in that. The Giant Stance comes with a 16.9 inch reach on the medium frame as well as a 45

 It also comes with Shimano Dior click shifters for a nice confident shift. The Stance also has some great quality components in the brakes. It has a Shimano Mt-200 hydraulic disc brakes. It has a 180 millimeter rotor in the front and 160 millimeter in the back

2021 Giant Stance 2 29 - Bike Review

 The stance was surprisingly well balanced, easy to pump, jump, and maneuver. The rock shocks recon on the giant performed better than the Recon on our GT for no obvious reason. Pedaling the stance was a pleasure, nice and neutral. The stance being the lightest bike in our test at 31 pounds, 2 ounces without pedals, definitely helped it feel speedy

 Setup was rather simple due to the limited suspension adjustment on the flip side. That simple process means dialing in a bike for maximum performance can be while limiting as we showed with Shock rebound adjustment ranges. Betting in the Giants brakes took some effort and despite not being as weak as the tech droves in our test, they still felt underpowered on the trail. The stance feels like the definition of a mountain bike

Only $1,800 and Ripping - Giant Stance 29 1 MTB Review

I stop by the Chula Vista location every time I get the itch for a new bike, parts, accessories and now service. The team at this store is amazing! Helped my son find his first real mountain bike two years ago, got it fixed super fast now when it broke. Consistently has a better selection of decently priced bikes than some other shops that only stock the top end bikes. Couldn’t help going home with a new full suspension Stance while waiting on my sons Talon to get fixed

Favorite bike shop in SD!

 - So You bought yourself a Giant Stance. What are you gonna upgrade, the frame? - Right Yeah,, that's the frustrating part. A Budget Bike is a great place to start, and ideally, you have one that's a good, solid chassis that you can hang nicer parts on as they wear out, you know,, just with that extra cash flow.

 Giant says the Stance is the perfect entry into singletrack fun, and it's aimed at new riders who are interested in getting out on some cross country light trail ventures. As it sits, the bike retails for $1800 and includes a dropper post, which is pretty impressive for a full suspension bike.. 29 inch wheels, 130 millimeter fork, and 120 millimeters of rear travel

 You Got to kind of really control the steering a little bit more. So These are a Shimano two piston trail bike brake, resin pads, resin pad only rotor close to zero initial bite. Well, that's an exaggeration, just not nearly enough initial bite, not nearly enough power. I Never felt comfortable

 Again, it's got that Recon fork up front. Kazimer, how much air pressure are you running? - Like 120 to 130 pounds, they recommend somewhere around 85 to 100 - 85 to 100. So You've got to over pressurize the fork again, add an extra 20 psi in there. So Just to get that support, rear end we are going 25% sag, tires, tubeless ready, 20 psi for both of us

Trek Roscoe. About the same pricing and same components as the grand canyon. Just got one for my wife yesterday who Started mountain biking.

Roadie here looking to get into MTB after already getting into gravel.  

Sorry, I know questions like this have been posted before. But just looking for any new input since most of the posts I found in search refer to 2021 or earlier Model Years and it seems like new tech/bikes/builds come out practically weekly.

Looking to spend not more than $1500 or so. Riding around where I live is probably split between "Trail"/"XC".  Probably a more "trail", but gotta climb everywhere.  Ideally also looking for a bike that I won't be itching to spend money to upgrade components. (I know nobody "needs" to buy upgrades, but come on... we know what we are...)

The [Grand Canyon 7](https://www.canyon.com/en-us/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/grand-canyon/grand-canyon-7/2617.html?dwvar_2617_pv_rahmenfarbe=BU%2FBK#all-components-section-tab) comes in around $1300. SRAM SX, Dropper Post, Judy Silver Air Fork. Not sure how Canyon works, but on the Canada site the also list a [Grand Canyon 8](https://www.canyon.com/en-ca/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/grand-canyon/grand-canyon-8/2619.html?dwvar_2619_pv_rahmenfarbe=GY%2FRD#all-components-section-tab) which I don't see listed on the US site.   Looks like the upgrades from the 7 are SRAM SX to Shimano Deore 12, and the Judy fork to a Fox 34 Rhythm.  Price converted to USD is just over $1500. That would actually probably be perfect for what I want. From what I've read SX and the Judy fork are "okay", whereas Deore and the Fox would be a definite step up. But, I don't know if I can actually buy it.  Canyon Canada also gets a [Stotic 3](https://www.canyon.com/en-ca/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/stoic/stoic-3/2660.html?dwvar_2660_pv_rahmenfarbe=GY#all-components-section-tab) at about $1400 (converted to USD), wheres the US site only lists a Stoic 2 ($1200 but 10sp &amp; no Dropper post), or a Stoic 4 ($2000= more than I want to spend).

The other option I see around is the [Polygon Xtrada 7](https://www.polygonbikes.com/product/mountain/xtrada-7-4/). Their US dealer BikesOnline has it around $1k. Comes with Deore 12 and thru-axles. But the fork, Suntour XCR32 Air, (from what I've seen online) seems to be a bit of a let down. Though not sure if it would feel like that to me, who's used to rigid road bike.  Also it isn't  15x110 spacing like the Canyons.  So any Fork upgrade I assume also means you need new wheel/hub as well. The Xtrada also has 27.2 seatpost and doesn't come with a Dropper. So, $1000 upfront, but get a Dropper (what are they like $150 give or take?) and it inches closer to the Grand Canyon7 in price while not having as nice a fork (but does have Deore 12). Not sure what a fork upgrade would cost/if there are any Forks worth upgrading to that would have the same 15x100 spacing.  

As an aside, what does it take to upgrade from something like a Deore 10/11sp to 12?  Just cassette and adjust the Deraileur?  Or do you need new hubs, Deraileurs, shifters, etc?

Anyway, apologies for the wall-o-text.  A bit bored at work here on Friday and maybe I got a bit carried away hahah. Thanks in advance for any input!

Edit: Canyon basically said &quot;That&#39;s rough buddy&quot;. No potential option to buy the Stoic 3 or GC8, unless I meet a friendly Canadian who be my bicycling smuggling mule.

Edit: Have been convinced to stay away from SRAM SX. Have ordered the Xtrada7.

Is there a better "budget" MTB out there than the Grand Canyon 7 that is available in the US?

Just got the bike a couple days ago and today (July/9/2022) I went to Culham Trails in Mississauga and had a blast. 

I would buy the bike again

 My only complaint of the 2021 Roscoe 8 was that the front was a little heavy. Other than that, great bike! I think the 2022 model will be even better. 9/10 would recommend.

 I have taken this thing to downhill parks and 25 ft+ jumps. Really sturdy bike. My only complaint of the 2021 Roscoe 8 was that the front was a little heavy. Other than that, great bike! I think the 2022 model will be even better

Roscoe is an extremely good bike
