This handy chart should show you the right size of MTB you need based on your height. Measure your height accurately and check the manufacturer’s measurements too. To get started, think about your style of riding, measure your height and use the links above for sizing on relevant bike types.
It’s possible that you can get a better deal for the 2020 and use the savings for a dropper post. With no pedal platform settings or lockout levers, the pedalling efficiency of the Stance hinges heavily on its suspension design. Some bikes use drivetrain forces to firm up the suspension when you pedal hard—a trait generally referred giant KIDS BIKES to as anti-squat. When compared to their Maestro bikes, the FlexPoint system displays much less anti-squat. It’s a plush and active rear end that provides a smooth ride but it’s also quite mushy when pedalling. The rear end sinks down under hard seated pedalling and sucks your power away if you stand and crank on the pedals.

The Giant Stance 2 is a full suspension mountain bike offers an affordable way to get more out of your time on the bike. The Giant Stance is ideal for trail centre loops and cross-country MTB adventures. The Giant Stance 2 is the perfect entry into full suspension mountain biking.
The suspension performance was truly impressive on the Stance, especially when you consider the price. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits. A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter-wide bottom bracket design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside. Formed from raw material in Giant’s own forging facility, this proprietary alloy features 30 percent additional stiffness over traditional 6061-series aluminum, while reducing overall weight.
Better yet, installing a dropper seat post on this bike would be incredible. There are quality options on the market in the $200 range from Tranz-X and X-Fusion that we’ve had good experiences with on other test bikes. I don’t have a lot of experience with the rear suspension design chosen here, apparently it allows the chainstays and seatstays to flex and only has a single pivot point. It felt good enough to me, and I hope it doesn’t create chain kickback or squat, input is welcome in the comments below. Since its original launch back in 2005, the Giant Trance has gone on to become one of the most common full suspension mountain bikes found on Aussie trails.
