Giant Talon 27.5 5 (2014)

The Giant Talon 27.5 5 is a great first choice for folks new to the offroad scene. This bike may be super-affordable, but it doesn't skimp on performance. It features a lightweight alloy frame and a Suntour fork that helps the bike handle great on rough trails. SRAM and Shimano team up to take care of shifting tasks, and parts from Tektro, KMC, and Suntour round out the spec. Giant cockpit parts add value and finish the bike off beautifully.
