The Giant Talon 5 27.5 is built for riders discovering the fun of trail riding and exploring new terrain. Its ALUXX-grade aluminium frame is hand-crafted by Giant’s engineering team — experts in alloy performance — to strike the perfect balance of strength, efficiency, and comfort. The geometry delivers a lively, responsive ride suited to 27.5" wheels, giving you agility on twisting singletrack and stable control over rougher ground.
Up front, the SR Suntour XCE fork offers 100 mm of travel, taking the sting out of bumps and keeping the front end tracking cleanly through corners. The Shimano 2x7 drivetrain provides a reliable range of gears for both steep climbs and fast descents, while TKB-172 mechanical disc brakes supply consistent stopping power whatever the conditions.
Rolling on 27.5" Giant GX03V alloy wheels wrapped in Kenda Booster 2.2" tyres, the Talon 5 finds grip and flow on loose trails, gravel paths, and forest tracks alike. Thoughtful finishing touches — such as the Giant Sport cockpit and saddle — ensure comfort on longer rides.
Whether you’re building confidence off-road, commuting with a bit of fun, or heading out for weekend trail adventures, the Talon 5 27.5 delivers dependable performance with that unmistakable Giant ride feel — responsive, balanced, and built for the love of riding.
