Giant AC Mountain Bike

Share and Enjoy:
The Giant AC is a mountain bike with 6.5 inches of travel in the rear shock and 5 inches in the front fork. The bike is not a very heavy bike in the mountain bike scheme of things, but it is built very study. The components are of good quality, but the front fork which is a "Mailbou" fork could have been replaced with a slightly higher quality fork. The rear shock is great, with a rebound adjustment so you can set it to your personal preference. The bike comes in a forest green color with a grey and black fork. It is a very sharp looking bike. It is very comfortable on trails ranging from flat gravel trails to downhill trails with obstacles and jumps. The bike has hydraulic hayes disk-brakes in the front and rear which work wonderfully. If you plan on using it for distance I would suggest less rugged tires. Overall I believe the bike is worth the price and it compares to some $2000.00 bikes.

  3. My husbands co-worker had this bike and loved it. He'd use it up at his summer place to ride through all kinds of terrain and it held up well overall.

  9. This bike sounds awesome, but it cost more than my car did! I also didn't realize just how much a good mountain bike could cost!

  12. Wowy, that is expensive lol. I don't think I could never pay that much for one but I guess it would be different if I was really into riding. Very helpful review.
