Picked up my Giant VT-2 '04 Model Last Thursday. Spent the weekend finetuning the suspension and gears to my liking ๐
Paid $2775 for it, not bad price!
Also got the new '04 Topeak HID Light for $500 +computer, rack etc.
Love IT!
Smooth as to ride, it almost just rolls up the hills :p
Just thought i would let u all know that it is a sweet bike if you are looking at getting one.
Off for another night ride ๐

Yeah I got one too. Only complaints are it suffers from chain suck when changing down to the granny. Not all the time just enough to be annoying. The rims are a little skinny for the 2.1 inch tires, I have already had 3 pinch flats, from rock steps and drop offs. Still a very sweet ride and enough suspension to get me into alot of trouble ๐

Where from? That sounds quite cheap. I might be thinking of the VT-1..

Have you used this light much? How do you rate it? My LBS has a Nightpro Solarc for $600.

Got the Bike from Local area: Drouin Cycles PH: 03 5625 2956, The Blokes name is Wilf
The Light is Bright as f**k!!! I only use it on low beam (only spare time is the night) and i keep getting flashed by oncoming traffic - mind you i do have it adjusted correctly and the main beam is almost directly infront of me. 2 nights ago, a Truck flached me, kept his high beams on - so i thought cop this and flashed him back! bet he thought WTF! when he went passed me " that was a push bike! " ๐
Dont know about comparing it to the Nightpro, but it is very light, the globe is about an 1.5 inch in diamiter and is bighter than my cars headlights, very good for trail riding ๐
That's good price. I met a guy on the trail on claimed he got his for $2600.00. Hard to believe!
Hopefuly the 2005 model will have better colours!
Later,
ML
