I always had a thing for bike sports and love almost anything that involves bikes and boards. I work part-time as a designer in the tech industry and work on my blogs whenever I can. Anyway, I owned both brands and agree that Giants tend to ride a bit more playful and Trek feels like a more stable ride.
