It's a small I'm just under 5' 8" bit worried at first with the sizing but got a Giant dropper on it with layback lots of standover clearance ! rode it about 6 times now and very impressed.
Not sure how to post pictures on here ! let me know and I will try
So Ive changed the saddle from he crap Giant contact one to my default charge spoon and that seems to have helped a bit !!

Very Very nice mate !!
How tall are you,Renton?
140mm max travel, on a trance and feels a bit crappy past 130 if you ask me.
Sorry if someone has already done this..........I didn't read the whole thread, but..........
In your first pictures the front of the saddle looked to be angled down a little bit at the front. That is going to push your weight more onto the bars.
In your last pictures the new saddle looks to be angled up more at the front. That is going to stop your weight being angled down onto the bars.
Maybe it was just the angle of the seat? Put it up more at the front!
Martin. I am 6 foot 1 and a bit. Shorter legs but longer torso.
Sten... The new trance is designed and fitted with 140mm forks as standard. The trance sx which is same frame as mine comes with 160mm as standard.
Billy boy. You are right. The nose is down on the original giant saddle as that's how I could get it comfy. I've swapped it out for a new charge spoon and set it perfectly level.
Will see how it goes tomorrow.
