Giant Trance….ok it’s not 160mm, the new one is 150mm front and 140mm rear….but the Maestro suspension system is firm, 140mm keeps things interesting and the longer fork (will take a 160mm happily) gives a margin for error…not overly long like I found the Reign and pedals well to boot, easiest FS I’ve ever ridden.
The latest 2017 models are future proofed with Boost spacing and come with a decent parts spec comparable now to many direct sales firms.
You can go more XC orientated (obviously) and there are also 160mm bikes out there currently that ride like mini DH bikes and take all the fun out of the trail but for me 140mm out back feels just right on a UK full suss….i owned a Saracen Ariel when the brand relaunched in 2011 (or ’12?) and that also had 140mm rear travel and was great fun too!
