2013 26" wheel Giant Trance XW in Extra Small

26" wheel Giant Trance XW in Extra Small

This was my wife's bike and is a perfect bike for the shorter rider. She's 5'1" but it will fit shorter riders. The XS frame is a 14.5" and has 5" of travel F&R. The Maestro suspension is Giant's version of VPP, very efficient and active, even under braking.

69.5° head angle, 74° seat angle. 21.1" top tube, 17.1" chainstays and standover of 27.2". For anyone interested in slacking out the head angle, you can use a Works Components headset to drop up to 2 degrees. I used one on my old Giant with great results. http://www.workscomponents.co.uk/full-headsets---most-common-sizes-15-c.asp
