I just strolled through Strava and while I knew I hadn't ridden much in a long time, I was surprised to see I've ridden the Trance exactly 3 times in the past 365 days. So, I've decided to put the thing up for sale. It's had a ton of recent maintenance including:
  • Major wheel true (lateral and radial)
  • Adjusted brakes, shifting, and dropper lever
  • Pivot points lubed
  • Drivetrain removed, cleaned & lubricated
  • 50 hour services for front fork and rear shock
  • New dropper cartridge
She's all cleaned up and ready to go. It has a couple small chips in the paint, but no damage to the frameset at all, otherwise this thing is perfect and ready for its next owner.

Size medium, for riders 5'7" to 5'11" according to Giant's size chart. I plan on listing it on the swap for $3,000, DFD special of $2,800. Original MSRP was $5,100.

I bought it used, but with the recent service I'll still be taking a bit of a bath.

If this was an XL bike, I'd be driving down to Indy to pick it up right now. Great bike at a great price.

This thing is a steal at that price. Too small for me. GLWS, hope it doesn't sell so you're forced to ride it :trollface:

Nah, DFD is just weird with all us giants. You should have no problem selling it outside of DFD.

I can never find XL bikes. They're rare AF.

In all seriousness, if you decide to trade this to TPC or a similar thing and you'd consider a cash+trade for the wheels, let me know... I'd throw a few hundies plus a set of DT Swiss M1900 wheels to put on it before you send it away.
