I have a 456 ss at the mo and its great but I would love a full sus bike as I have never owned one and I want one.. :D

I ride trails, easy on the ups as fast as I dare on the downs. Wouldn't mind trying a few jumps and drops at some point also.

I have narrowed it down to a Trek remedy 7, cube ams 150 pro or a Giant trance x3/x2 am I missing something worth considering? Also I'm looking for 36 months 0% credit.

Thanks for looking, much appreciated.

  • I'd consider the Giant Reign in with those choices, more travel than the Trance and probably lines up a bit better next to the Cube and Trek you're considering.

    I would say the Trance is as capable as the Remedy. The Reign is a bit more of an all mountain bike where the Remedy rides like a longer travel trail bike. I rode a 2012 Trance X2 this weekend & it's great, feels like a XC bike on the climbs & really fast on the descents.
