GREAT BIKE...NOT AS HEAVY AS YOU WOULD THINK, IT WEIGHED 37 LBS WITH PEDALS AND THE COMPLETE BIKE...I THINK THE SCALE WAS ON POINT AT THE SHOP THAT I WAS AT....I WAS ACTUALLY REALLY SURPRISED...I HAVE RIDDEN TRANSITIONS THAT SEEMED A LOT HEAVIER....GREAT COLOR, GOOD SETUP ON THE FAITH 0...GETS THE JOB DONE DH BUT GOOD FOR DIRT JUMPING AS WELL..OVERALL I AM REALLY IMPRESSED SO FAR AND WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS BIKE...CHOSE IT OVER A SX TRAIL, AND BIG HIT..AFTER RIDING ALL OF THEM, THIS ONE SEEMED TO BE HAVE THE BEST FEEL...EVERYONE HAS THEIR PERSONAL PREFERENCE BUT GIANT IS A GREAT BIKE...
Absolutely awesome bike, extremely capable on all terrains, both flickable and easy to move around on the trail, but sturdy on all full on dh tracks. The maestro suspension system on this bike is super active with all aspects of riding which is a great benefit with this bike. With its lightweight, the faith is enjoyable to ride on freeride tracks with large gap jumps and drops and with 7 inches of travel to take up all the bighits, you really cant go wrong. Buy a faith, you will be surprised with how versatile this bike really is! Thats if you can find one as giant dont make them for 2013 unfortunately.
Love my 2010 Giant Faith although mine is very upgraded the stock model runs great i love minnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnne
Such a cool bike, can take really huge hits! Lots of pros use this bike! Tried this bike out on a couple trails and flowed so smooth.

In the world of pro freerider Kurt Sorge, there’s no room for second guessing. That’s why Kurt rides Faith, the most advanced freeride bike ever built. With its lightweight, unyielding FluidForm ALUXX SL aluminum frame and 7 inches of plush Maestro Suspension travel-plus the ingenious adjustable geometry, with its convertible dropout system-Faith comes through when you need it most.
