1 year agoThanks again Dave! I had a blast learning about your Giant Stance E+ 2 and just hanging out, the ride after was really fun and we should go again sometime :D

10 months agoHi, may I speak to someone who knows about the above product? Giant Stance E and Giant Explore E+ GTS. And anything that can do a good range of 120km/charge, speed 45km, service and spare parts obtainable.
Thanks

10 months agoHi Nigel! I don’t sell any electric bikes, just provide reviews, videos, a directory of ebike dealers where you could find a local Giant dealership, and an electric bike forum where you can get feedback from other visitors. There’s one other useful resource here, and that’s the Class 3 ebikes category where you can see other high speed 28mph / 45kmh electric bikes. I hope this helps!

10 months agoHi Court, saw and read your review and bought the bike on a good deal here in Germany partly based on it, so thank you and Dave ;)!
I do have one question. I live near a nice woody, hilly area which is unusual for Hamburg. There are some trails with some small humps, bumps and jumps. As I am a beginner and I don’t think I will ever trust in my ability to do some crazy downhill riding and jumping, would you say the suspension on this bike should have no issues with some blue trails?
Many thanks and keep up the good work. Best regards from Germany,

10 months agoHi Pawel, it sounds like you’re in a really nice spot there! Glad you were able to find a bike that works, especially if you got a good deal on it. These Giant products seemed to be well made to me, and the Stance E+ 2 is definitely trail capable. The 120mm suspension is rated for cross country, and my understanding is that means it will perform well at higher speeds, on gravel, medium bumps, and small to medium rocks and stumps. This is not a fake mountain bike… one that appears to be capable but uses cheap parts. In my opinion, it uses great parts and would be more than adequate for your blue trails, depending on your weight and how well you keep it cleaned and tuned up. My understanding is that most ebikes are tested with a 170lb ride when gathering range data, and they are usually rated up to 250lbs. I hope this gives you some insights! Another tip is to keep the tire pressure between the recommended PSI rating, which I list on almost all of the reviews here. Sounds like you’re going to have a blast!! Good luck, and take your time learning the jumps ;)

10 months agoHi Court, many thanks for the thorough response. It’s very helpful and one I was hoping for ;) I’m at 195lb so a little over the test weight. Will try to follow your advice on keeping the bike clean and tuned up. Thanks again and best regards, Pawel
