Giant Talon 2 2027 / M / Eclipse

The Giant Talon 2 is a capable aluminium hardtail designed for riders taking their first steps into true mountain biking and cross-country trail riding. Its lightweight, durable ALUXX-grade aluminium frame uses modern shaping and trail-focused geometry to deliver a confident, responsive ride on dirt, gravel and everyday paths. For the Medium frame, Giant pairs the bike with fast-rolling 29-inch wheels and a 100mm SXC32-3 RL coil-sprung suspension fork. The Boost 15x110mm front hub, 12x142mm rear thru-axle and wide 2.4-inch tyre clearance add stability and control when the trail becomes rough. Internal cable routing and integrated chainstay protection give the frame a clean, modern finish. A simple microSHIFT Advent 1x9 drivetrain provides a useful 11-46T gear range without the complication of a front derailleur. Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with a 180mm front and 160mm rear rotor deliver dependable stopping power. Maxxis Rekon Race 29x2.4-inch tyres balance grip and rolling speed, while the Giant Connect Trail handlebar, Giant Sport stem and Giant ErgoContact Trail saddle complete the trail-ready setup.
