What are your guys honest opinions on the bike, how it rides mainly? Will I need a angle set?
Thanks

I love the bike .. rides so smooth and quite ... my last bike was a orange 223 and i went from it to the giant and the giants wheels felt like they were glued to the ground compared to the orange Smile

It is a great bike !!

Hope this helps.

I forgot how steep they are stock. 2* Works Component angled headset. The CC Angleset kept creaking for me with the 40, so I swapped it out.

I like it a lot. Hard to say for sure because I had the Cane Creek on there first for most of the time I've owned it. Definitely gives you confidence to go down anything and not worry about the front wheel getting caught up.

Yeah, I don't know what year you have, but the newer ones are 63.5 degree HA, which is what mine sits at with the 2 degree headset.
