2008 Giant Trance.
All that remains of the original full bike, are the frame, shock, cranks and , amazingly, one Avid Juicy 3.
This bike has been upgraded to something which has been just fantastic , for thrashing round the local hilly forest stuff and done plenty of bigger natural rides and trail centre stuff.
Mostly because I can, rather than need to, I will be replacing it with a 27.5 Trance in a few weeks .
I shall be bitterly disappointed , if the newer, slightly slacker , slightly longer travel bike doesn’t give me what my 26 er has.
