Giant's 2021 Trance X E+ is a 29er based electric mountain bike powered by the Yamaha PWX2 motor. What's unique about the bike is that Giant have completely written their own firmware for the motor, essentially taking a blank motor from Yamaha and upping the torque levels in the lower modes.

DISCLAIMER: GIANT paid for me to produce this video. This has allowed me to work with The Bike Pilot to film, capture and produce the video and therefore is market as 'Paid Promotion'. In no way did GIANT have any control or influence over the video, narrative or final content. I believe that being open and honest is important. As brands now have direct access to YOU, my loyal audience via my channel, you deserve to know all the good stuff and bad stuff about the products I'm testing.
The 2021 Giant Trance X E+ bikes start from £4699. The model that I am testing is the top model, the Pro 29 1, and this is priced at £5799 GBP
Giant also have a Ride Assist app that also allows you to customise motor parameters.
The bikes come with a removable 625Wh internal battery and I really like that they all come with 6a fast chargers.

Ebikes are awesome and the Trance is such good value for the money. It out performs the Trek Rail 9.7 in every way in my opinion.

Going from riding a semi trail e-bike ..the surface 604 mainly used on road and light gravel trails to pre ordering the 2023 Giant Trance X E+1 advanced. Just can’t wait. Even though a lot has changed with the bike in 2 years there is a lot I can take from this video. Cheers

Great video and perfect analytics Rob, thank you. Here in Canada BC I just bought the last 2021 Giant Stance XE + Pro29 3 this morning, even before watching your video. I am very excited about my first ever e mountainbike purchase and glad to hear that you are very positive all round. They have to ship it to me from the mainland, $200 extra but so worth it. What would I do without. Good timing cause there are none available in the near future, from any brand, 2021 bikes are almost all gone. A good friend of mine has two first generation Giant's e mountainbikes, 2015 and 2016, I sure lost my virginity last year on those already fantastic bikes and had a lot of practice. Greetings and happy riding guys!

Been riding emtb here In NZ for the last few years. The Trance is a sweet bike with a couple of issues. The hub on the older models used to crap out a fair bit, never had any water ingress issues. Upgraded to the reign e and wow what an amazing bike! Its a bit heavy but components and ride are amazing value for money.

Another great review. I've been forwarding your Alpine Trail E review to customers and now I can forward this. It will fit well with how I have been recommending the bikes - essentially pushing people towards the Alpine Trail if they want a more traditional feel or especially if they swap back and forth between regular and Emtb. The Trance seems like a great option for a full-time emtb rider and people who will appreciate the extra stability and climbing performance of a longer chainstay.

Beautiful cold video. 32 degrees centigrade here in New Zealand summer lol. Me and my wife both have 2019 E+1 and the yamaha engine is so good and reliable (listen up brose). Also it's good you mentioned the quality of the battery and charging system. That Fox suspension is so dam good as well. Our plan was to get new Giant E bikes this year but ours are so good we will keep them for at least another year.

Thanks for this video, I tried an earlier version at a test day and I was very impressed with the way the maestro suspension felt so natural and better than all the other bikes I have tried. I have a Bulls with a brose motor and love the bike but the only bike I would consider is the giant maestro setup as a replacement. Sometimes bikes feel right, I will try and get a ride on the new version, looking at the specs the version 2 has better shifters (smoother)

Great review.... 2021 Giant Trance X E+ Pro 3 I purchased this bike in November of 2020 and loved the bike. But, in September of 2021 I began experience error codes on the controller which led to a dead bike. I would reset the controller by turning it off and on again to resolve the issue for a short time. This problem became more prominent where I couldn't ride the bike. I brought the bike to the dealer and they replaced the controller after waiting for 3 months. Unfortunately, the problem still persisted. They contacted Giant and they were going to send a new wiring harness, however, giant told them it would be 24 weeks until the new one arrived🤬 I was extremely disappointed with Giant's total lack of customer service. Giant seems more interested in selling new bikes then warranty and fix the bikes they already sold.

Because I dont have experience with ebikes I will ride/test the X2 model that they give to try as soon as shops open because of virus.

Do you think a beginner like me would notice a large difference between the Trance X E+ 1 and the lower end Trance X E+ 3? The latter is priced around what I'm comfortable to spend on an eBike. Also I'm pretty tall and heavy, not sure if I need to spend the extra bucks on better parts as I won't be driving too aggressively anyway

@t2omicro822 3 жыл бұрын
@@nightking1863 The cost difference is how much, $600? If your 100% sure you wont be pushing your, or your bikes limits, then the 3 is perfect! Pocket the cash or use it to buy spare chains and cassettes. I've owned 2 Fox DPS shocks, and they both felt awesome for trail riding!-they both failed. Granted... I got in alot of miles before they failed. The Deore 12 speed is being highly reviewed. The fork is solid. I wasnt a fan of the old MC damper (maybe this ones better) but, you said your not going to be pushing it, so I'm sure it's way beyond good enough for trail riding. Just make sure to get one! Emtb's are next level fun.

How about Giant buys out Pinion?. E Bikes are a major schism, we are ready, at least on Ebikes, for internal gears. Very nice video production, well done.

Great bike! It proves, that not exactly the amount, but the quality of the suspension is what really matters. I tested it some time ago and was really impressed with how it feels, but overall bought Scott Genius, because of better ground clearance and simpler suspension which in the long term, could be more reliable. But thats just me. Everyone should a least try this bike, very capable machine. Also, very good on high speeds....

Another fantastic review - thanks Rob. I know aesthetics are subjective, but it is a handsome package and doesn’t - if it matters to anyone - shout its eebness. But, holy switchbacks Batman, 470mm chainstays! Four hundred and seventy! Probably a megabike rival for the Scott Ransom 910 E-ride, but not for the more nimble Trek Rail 9 or the Marin Alpine Trail E2...?

Maestro suspension has always provided great support and feedback. I rode an Anthem over a decade ago and that with only 100mm travel was super capable due to the kinematic. I’m a little mixed over front centre vs chain stay length. Seems manufacturers are too. Reach looks quite short or is that lankitis ? Did you find you had to load the front at all for traction ? Seems Giant have gone for a central weighted ride...light hands. Whopping chainstays mind. Maybe technique to get the bike around corners ....go in extra wide ? Trails there look great vs here in sth Wales. I’m hardly going out as very sketchy and don’t want to add to hospital loads ! Super review guys.

I have the 2020 reign E+ 2 and think it is a great bike, however the low hung and forward motor constantly gets bashed up on my local enduro trail where it it quite rocky. It is the one thing that I think giant really messed up with on these bikes vs other brands that have managed to minimise the motor drop to close to the size of the chainring. Has anyone else experienced my issue? What have you done to overcome it? I'm worried about damaging the motor but can't find anything aftermarket to replace the motor covers, or add a bash guard etc.

Hi Rob, how do you rate this PWX2 motor compared to the EP8? I'm thinking maybe my next motor will be Yamaha since I find Bosch too loud.

PWX2 definitely feels more powerful but its a bit bigger and heavier
