  • Giant XTC SLR 29 First Ride Report!!
    I finally got to throw a leg over the lightweight 2021 Giant XTC SLR 29. I was surprised by the price of this bicycle coupled with how well it actually handles. I wouldn't be afraid to take this thing out to the races and put it up against a higher end carbon bike.
    I hope you all enjoyed and be sure to like and subscribe!
    I will see everyone in the next video where we round out the mountain bike race series at the Cane Creek Cup.

    I watched this film about 4 weeks ago, and your other review you did on this bike in the shop, and you convinced me! So I bought one, I changed the unbelievably useless Tektro brakes to Deore, changed the Deore shifter to an XT shifter and now as you said on price point I have a pretty good bike.Thanks for helping me choose!

    great trail bike or xc race bike. i just bought one and got second in my first race with it. sport 35-44 class. they are in stock now go get one. this bike is very light and fast. immediately upgraded to GX derailer, 34T chainring, giant spd pedals (specs say they are lighter than xtr and only $85!), and foam grips. this bike is a winner. comes with sram drivetrain now.

    I owned two previous versions of this bike which are 27.5’s.man all you have said on this review was on point! The frame is really something it’s super light for an AL frame.

    Great review! I have a Giant Roam 2 and love the ride quality, but the bike is definitely setup for road riding. That XTC SLR 29 would be good for my trail riding!

    I've also experienced the lockout staying in the locked position after releasing it from the remote. Hasn't been much of an issue since I don't use it often. Also thanks for the shout out there, that was cool.

    There is another TH-camr who also cover Giant bikes extensively and he's probably getting the same flake of being 'paid by Giant'.. People who turn their nose up at "mass market/consumer" bikes don't appreciate products which doesn't have an exotic snooty brand name yet are very value for money. I ride bikes casually, no hardcore competition racing nor downhill time trials, so frame quality is not critical but having high quality and reliable Shimano parts does. This is where Giant really delivers and if you know where to source for them you will certainly get them at bargain prices (I just bought a $960 12-speed Shimano SLX XTC 820 MTB). I have a Specialized Roubaix roadie too so I'm not biased just because I have a Giant.
