When you’re climbing steep singletrack, accelerating on fast and flowy trails, or committing to big moves on technical terrain, power matters. Weight matters, too. Those two factors combined, the power-to-weight ratio, play a major role in how an E-MTB performs on the trail. That’s the main idea behind the all-new Trance X Advanced E+ Elite, the lightest full-power E-bike in the world. This versatile new E-bike is powered by a proven SyncDrive Pro 2 motor that delivers 85Nm of pedaling support. The motor shape is optimized to work with Giant’s Maestro rear suspension system. This is the same powertrain ridden to multiple national championships and EWS-E podiums by Josh Carlson of the Giant Factory Off-Road Team. FEATURES:<br> <ul> <li> <strong>Lighter weight:</strong> The new SyncDrive Pro 2 motor & EnergyPak 400 battery are designed to be ultra slim. You get all the power but in a smaller package that’s cleanly integrated with the composite frameset.</li> <li> <strong>Advanced cockpit control:</strong><span> </span>RideControl Ergo 3 remote attaches to the all-new composite Giant Contact SLR integrated handlebar. The control can be mounted to either side of the handlebar so you can customize your controls for a clean, uncluttered cockpit.</li> <li> <strong>More power:</strong><span> </span>New SyncDrive Pro motor, co-developed with Yamaha, puts out a powerful 85Nm of torque and weighs just 2.7kg. The result is quicker acceleration and climbing capabilities on technical trails.</li> </ul> <strong>SPECS:</strong> <strong>Frame</strong> Advanced-grade composite frame, Aluxx SL-grade rear triangle, Advanced forged composite upper rocker, 140mm Maestro suspension system<br> <strong>Fork</strong> RockShox 35 Gold RL DebonAir, 150mm travel, 44mm offset, MotionControltm rebound and lockout control, 15x110 Boost, Maxle Stealth, e-MTB optimized<br> <strong>Rear Shock</strong> Rock Shox Deluxe Select R, DebonAir, 185x52.5mm Trunnion mount, custom tuned<br> <strong>Rims/Wheels</strong> Giant AM 29" [F]/ 27.5" [R], Tubeless ready, 30mm inner width, e-bike optimized<br> <strong>Hubs</strong> Shimano MT410, Boost, Center-Lock, [F] 110x15 [R] 148x12mm Micro-Spline Drive Body Thru-axle<br> <strong>Spokes</strong> Sapim E-Lite [R] Race [F], e-bike optimized<br> <strong>Tires</strong> Maxxis Minion DHF 29X2.50" Foldable, TLR, EXO [F] Maxxis Dissector 27.5x2.4" Foldable, TLR, EXO [R]<br> <strong>Crankset</strong> Praxis Wavetm 36T Cold Forged 4130 premium steel Praxis e-Cadet+ custom forged crankarm set (S:160, M/L: 165, XL:170)<br> <strong>Chain</strong> KMC e.12 Turbo, EcoProteq, e-bike optimized<br> <strong>Chain Guide</strong> MRP HD2 co-moulded chain guide<br> <strong>Rear Derailleur</strong> Shimano Deore 12-speed<br> <div> <div><strong>Cassette/Rear Cogs</strong></div> </div> Shimano CS-M6100-12, 10-51T, 12-speed<br> <strong>Shifters</strong> Shimano Deore<br> <strong>Handlebars</strong> Giant Contact SL 35 Trail, 35x780mm<br> <strong>Stem</strong> Giant Contact SL 35<br> <strong>Brake Levers</strong> Shimano Deore, I-spec EV<br> <strong>Brakes</strong> Shimano BR-M420, 4-piston, hydraulic disc, 203mm<br> <td
