Hi, i am looking at getting a new bike and am thinking about the Giant VT-3

I have decided to sell my car and take up cycling again.

I need to save some cash and lose some weight.

Any reviews out there for the VT-3?

and if anyone is interested, i have a 79 td gemini for sale

Thanks Dracko

LOL...A TD Gemini? The sale of a Gemini isn't going to cover the cost of a VT-3. Not unless it's
"fully sick"..... ;-)

Draco, If it makes you feel any better I drive a 1976 hand-me-down Holden Torana .Just looking at it is enough to get on the bike instead. 🙂

I would be careful if you just go with the mtb as its more than likely going to be stolen if you leave it anywhere (ie. train station). Maybe getting a 2nd hand bike or if you can afford it a folding bike as well as the VT-3 might be the way to go. If you do sell the car a bike with panniers and rack would be handy for the shopping.

"Fully Sick" yes

lowered, sports gear, all mechanics recod, cd, tint, central, el antenna, g180, in excellent condition.

i am only selling it as i need to get fit, and i want a bike that can go almost everywhere.

Back to main question:
Is their any 3rd party reviews for the VT3?

Thanks

There are plenty of reviews for the VT2 and VT1 at mtbr.com but none for VT3... however apparently the frame and rear shock is the same in the VT3 so it still should be relevant.

Looks like the reviews for these bikes are pretty good!
Cheers,
Troy

LMFAO!! Wow, "too fast too furious".....lol

If your fully sick Gemini is important to you.....and you just wanna get fit.....why not take up
jogging? You don't need a bike "that can go anywhere" just to get fit. There's lots of options....

Sorry mate, can't jog/walk long dist. stuffed my ankle a few years back, my doctor reckons i will be able to cycle without much hassel - hence going into cycling.

i live in an area that i dont require a motor vehical anymore, thats why i wish to sell my car and save some cash at the same time.

I dont believe i need to be ridiculed for trying to better myself and i did come here for some information and help.

thanks

If the frame and fork are the same on all models... Is there a frame-only option?

That way you (or I) could buy the frame and shock and then spec the rest of the bike with any parts
available...

hippy tempted.. must go and ride one of these...
