My Talon 1 would be the best bike I’ve ridden so far. All my previous ones weren’t as smooth on the trails and couldn’t handle small drops unlike the talon lol.
I have the same bike just got it a month ago and already added a lot of things including a new crank set and new spindle I didn’t like the old school square taper spindle
I got the same 27.5 Talon 1. I noticed my back wheel does not look centered in the chainstay. The left brake side has more of a gap than the right chain side. Is that the same for your bike?
No problems here, my back tire looks balanced overall and I rode it a lot on tough terrain by the time I'm writing this comment. Did you make sure your quick release is tightened correctly? Other than that, it could be the tire frame is bent. I would bring it in to your local bike shop to have it checked out as well.
@@wtawagon thanks for your response! I took my 2021 Talon 1 to the bike shop and they confirmed the frame was defective. We even swapped out rear wheels with other bikes to confirm the issue was with the frame. Hopefully Giant approves the exchange and honors their Lifetime Warranty on the frame. The sad part is I haven't even rode a trail on this bike yet. Can't wait to get my bike back. I'll keep you posted on what Giant does. Thanks again for posting this awesome video.
super cool! thanks for posting, I encourage you to upload more trail footage with your Talon. I just purchased a Talon 2 and i'm very happy!
can't wait for mine! this really showed what to expect!
Thanks for video ride along. Wish we had some good downhill trails in Florida. Just bought the same bike. Changing bars out and pedals soon.
Cant wait to grab this bike next year for my girlfriend and I ... seems like a really good bike to start with and keep watching videos on it.
A bike you can ride on a path…who knew
Nice video! How would you rate your Talon 1 against other bikes you may have ridden?

That's nice. I'm planning on adding some new pedals since the stock ones are not grippy and can be risky on the trails.
@@wtawagon yes u must upgrade it’s a big difference i will upload a video soon so u can get ideas
@@wtawagon pedals are a must. having legit ones with pins will give you SO much more grip
I just put some of the Specialized Beanies on my Talon 2, they are plenty grippy and feel great.
Bruh I can hear your heartbeat I thought I was tripping
