Are you two in Milton? I'm in FWB! I've a Pedego e-bike and have done your Blackwater Heritage trail twice lately. Again, love your videos, you two are real people, like me! Thanks!
Hi friend! Yes! We are in Milton. Thank you for your kind words and sharing a little of your story. Like you, we ride the BWT frequently. Hopefully, we’ll see you out there one day! Thanks for watching.
Great video, again. I'm planning on the St Mark's trail this month, Oct 2024, and the information you've provided is priceless. Thank you. Dave of NW Florida.
Dave, you can’t go wrong with the St Marks Trail. It is a real joy to ride. Hope you have a great time! Thank you for watching our videos.
Very good. I'll be headed to Gulf State Park soon all because you two introduced me to it. Good informative video, I'll watch many more of yours. Dave of NW Florida.
So glad we could be helpful! 😎 We know you’ll love those trails - and they’re so close! Thanks for your comments. Hope to meet you in person sometime soon. Ride on!
@Freestlyle Enduro 101 Warm greetings from Australia. In a few weeks I'll probably be purchasing the 2023 Giant Talon E+ 1. I'll need some kind of kickstand for it. It's hard to make out what kickstand you have, is it a Giant kickstand? Can you provide the name of it please?
@@p3tr0114 Hello! Yes, it’s a Giant kickstand. The only name I know of is “direct mount, adjustable” Our local dealer put it on before I took the bike out to review. Hope that helps!
Troy, I don't believe we've met but we live in the same area. I'm very involved and have been in our local MTB scene and PORC for many years... Jeez, I've been riding our local trails since 1997 actually. Anyhow, I rented one of these bikes while up in Maine and used it to ride the carriage roads in Acadia National Park. Like you, I fell in love with the bike from that first ride and have had my eyes on getting one ever since. I just purchased this exact one which I plan to swap out to a barely used Apex 1 groupset that I have another bike. I found your video very helpful and informative, it was a great way to see the bike before making the purchase! Great vid and keep up the good work!
@@galencounselman3305 Since 1997!? That’s awesome! I love to hear personal stories like yours. Thanks so much for sharing and I really appreciate the encouragement. Hopefully, we’ll get a chance to meet one day. Enjoy the ride, friend!
Great video as always! It’s amazing how these e-bikes don’t look bulky any longer. What a comfortable way to cruise around and enjoy the scenery. Speaking of scenery, we are heading over to bike Gulf State Park this morning to enjoy the mild weather we’re having in the NW Florida area. Informative detailed review. Thanks! John and Kim E.
@@JohnnyUrkle Thanks so much, friends! Yes! We love how clean and comfortable these ebikes have become! Enjoy GSP. I know you will have fun, it’s such a great place! ❤️
Hope everyone’s ok
@@GotoyourhomeBall Yes! Praying for everyone effected by the storm!
My hometown ❤.
@@emmachruscinski8454 It’s such a wonderful place!
thank you for this video!
@@ManuelAlejandroGonzalezP-vt9vl You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
I have a giant fathom e+3.
@@Pelennor I love the Fathom! Great bike! Thanks for watching!
@@TroyandAndrea I think it's the exact same bike as the talon you've reviewed in the video.
Peace in🇮🇱greetings from 🇮🇳hallelujah, great video
@@jojappajojappa44 Same to you, friend! Thanks so much for watching!
Isn't there black towns buried under lake Martin. These people fronting. Somebody share the history behind lake Martin. It's a wet graveyard
As with any dam built anywhere in the world, the residents (of all races) must relocate before they flood the area. If the town included a graveyard, then they’re now all underwater. Sad but true realities of building dams. Thanks for watching!
I have a Momentum E+ which is made by Giant and is pretty much the same thing. They are pretty good 👍
Giant Momentum E+ ? I will have to check that out! Thanks so much for watching!
You guys are amazing! I have done some big rides in the past and I am about to embark on some epic new solo handcycling adventures at 57. I wonder if you would be so kind as to give me some advice on how to build subscribers on youtube. Thanks for sharing your adventures. Cheers from downunder.
Thanks so much friend! The best advice we can give you is just keep it real and keep making videos! Be youself and have fun, because people like that. Hope you have some great adventures!
@@TroyandAndrea Thank you
Thank you for the video. My dealer hasn't reset the distance since last service - can I do that myself?
Hi! Well, that’s a really good question! I checked the Giant manual and didn’t find anything obvious (it may be in there and I just didn’t see it). In fact, everything I found said “Contact your lical dealer.” Maybe you can get your dealer to explain it to you so you can do it yourself? Sorry I couldn’t be a better help.
Thanks for the encouragement to get my behind back on my bike! It's been far too long for me. I think I saw part of this trail from going to the Island with my brother who lives in TN, but I didn't know that it was as extensive. Looks like something I need to explore!
Hi Emily! It’s a fun and easy ride, perfect to get back out there if it’s been a while. Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate your encouragement too.
Good to see you guys are back at it. Thanks for sharing Ryan & Beth
Thank you! We are hoping for some good rides now that things are cooling off. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Looks like a fun trail. That it’s lighted at night is a great idea. 🚲♥️🚲
I wish we could have made it back at night to see it lit and also see the show fountain.
Next time! 😊
ya'll need to come ride the Tanglefoot trail in N Mississippi. ya"ll enjoyed the longleaf you will really enjoy the Tanglefoot it runs from Houston Ms to New Albany Ms about 43 miles one way Be sure to check out the lil store named Sugary"s at the end of the trail in Nee Albany
@@RobinJohnson-gm7zu Yes, yes, and YES! Tanglefoot is at the top of our list! We’re hoping to get there very soon. Thanks so much for the encouragement and for watching!
I'm so happy to see you back! I am still riding but only early a.m. because of the heat. I love the idea of the lighted multi use path! 😊
Thanks, it’s good to be back! Looking forward to cooler weather soon. Thanks for watching!
Great video! Looks like a fun trail we need to try. We have visited so many different trails from watching your videos and all were amazing. Thank you! Welcome back!! I was excited to see a notification that one of your videos just posted!! 🎉🎉🎉
Awww… thank you! We really appreciate your support!
Does the app show how much life is left on the battery before it needs replaced looking at a used giant talon that’s a year old and 450 miles on it
Great question! I don’t remember seeing a battery health indicator anywhere within the app. You might call your local dealer or Giant customer support to see if there’s a way to check battery health. Thanks for watching.
Yes it does. My bike is on 1600km (1000m) an it show 97% battery health.
@@TroyandAndrea thanks
@@MatkoPez Great! Thanks so much for sharing this info!
🚴♀🚴♀🚴♀ Ride On !!!!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Indeed, very comfortable bike for all ages, though expensive yet great value for the spend.
Totally agree! Thanks so much for watching!
Great controller. Crap, brittle, not fit for purpose bracket which mounts the controller onto the handlebar, which will snap and break at the first opportunity. The app is at best hit and miss. What works, work what doesn’t work, doesn’t!
@@JohnChristopher-k7u Yeah, I broke one on a different model bike. Bummer. There are a few different mounting brackets, so it depends which one is more breakable. But, the dealer had it fixed asap, so that was good. The app has a long history of version updates, so it might depend on an update … but apps are never perfect. Thanks for your comments.
@@TroyandAndrea “Different mounting brackets”? That’s news to me. In the time I’ve had my 2019 Giant Fathom E+ 3 29er, I’ve destroyed 4 brackets, two of them out of warranty. I’ve now ended up doing a gorilla fix, using a spare bit of inner tube and a couple of zip ties to secure my controller to my handlebar. It’s far from ideal but it’s better than returning my bike to the shop every three months and spending another £100 on something that shouldn’t have snapped in the first place.
@@JohnChristopher-k7u Yes, a few other model bikes had a little different bracket. But I agree, it shouldn’t have snapped in the first place - definitely an area to improve design.
What size frame is that?
@@goldiehonduh Hi! It’s a size small. Thanks for watching!
Rivnut size?
@@mickeyvicente8629 I used an M5 rivnut. Thanks for watching!
I'm looking into be in a e-bike camper bikepacking. I have hydraulic brakes too. 4:48 sounds like the cable problem would be the same for nearly every one. I see a lot of 20-35$ options on amazon and Temu for 12-15 L handlebar bag setups. Any thoughts ?
@@frankenstein3163 The prices for decent handlebar bag setups have come down considerably, so a good one is more affordable now. You can probably find a workable one on Amazon. I would check the reviews to help you make a decision. Thanks so much for watching. Have fun out there!
No power. Need power upgrade.
Okay, but as I have stated many times, it all depends on one's budget, ability, and availability of inventory. I agree that more power is great for a more skilled rider (I like more power myself), but this bike still has its rightful place in the market - like for those who don't need or want as much power (such people do exist!) Thanks for watching!
Great review. May I ask if the stock teravail tires are also tubeless ready? Thanks in advance
Hey there! YES! They are tubules ready! Here is a link for a little more info on the tires - thanks for watching! aroundthecycle.com/products/new-teravail-washburn-tire-700-x-38-tubeless-folding-tan-durable?srsltid=AfmBOooBZi0UmO-Bu7OoPETgeJdftqq04vRmSK8hzW1dCdO9_gvHpUSG
Thank you so much - there was no information about this app or my Momentum Vida+ e bike when I purchased it. so strange not to have any kind of manual.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching.
why can they not make this bike with higher gears like a three by front crank for hills
That would be useful!
Do they still make them w/ a rear monoshock?
Good question! I am not entirely sure - you might check the Giant website. Thanks!
🇵🇾🇵🇾🇵🇾
Vamos Albirroja!
excellent
Many many thanks!
BS. $200-300 cradles? What planet did you get that information. High end is $150.
@@markroberts6971 Not so smarty Joe. When this video was made, EVERYTHING for bikes was a LOT more expensive! The Salsa EXP (what I would consider a quality cradle) is finally at a reasonable $125.00. But that wasn’t the case coming out of Covid years. Either way, what difference does it make to you? Go buy what you want.
I have the 2016 roam much nice my frame is more robust... hydraulic brakes.. I hate the new models
Cool. I have an older model too ... there's definitely a difference! Thanks for watching!
Just bought this model from Pedelea bike shop in Vega Baja Puerto Rico. Seems great so far! Thanks
@@jaxsun72 That’s awesome! I’ve had mine awhile now and it STILL makes me smile! Hope you have many happy miles on it! Thanks for watching.
simple...use epoxy glue plus cable ties
Great tip! Thanks for watching!
The flat foot technology is a must have for me.
@@bobstranzenbach4700 It certainly makes it more comfortable! Thanks for watching.
Great video
@@ahmedqamar3453 Thank you!
❤
Gracias!
I will share like comment on your video and how much money will you pay
Its LA DIG A not LA DIE Ga - Otherwise great video
Haha! Thanks SO much for pronunciation tip! We appreciate it and thanks for watching!
Different, check the bolt tightness once a week when you're touring. Even racks will loosen up after a month touring.
Good advice! Thanks so much!
I love mine... got it about 8 years ago, however.. the seat is so painful... after about an hour on the bike... recommend this bike, but i would purchase a noseless seat, like VSeat.
VSeat? Hmmm, we will have to check that out! Yes, getting a good seat is super important! Thanks for watching!
This is an amazing bike and it has everything I need. Love the shifters, love sitting upright, love the brakes, love the color, love the shape, the weight, the tires, the feel. It's a perfect bike all around in my opinion and I put well over 3,000 mi on it at this point and still love it. I was looking at everything including the Trek Verve and this blew it away for way less money. I do think it's a good bike for most anyone but if you have neck or back issues need to set up right then this is absolutely without a doubt your bike.
Great comment! By the way, how does it compare with Cypress 3? I am in the position of choosing between the two models.
Could not agree with you more! Did you say, “3 THOUSAND miles”? WOW! Just wow! I do believe your evaluation of this bike is extremely valuable and veritable. Thanks so much for sharing with us and for watching!
good review, but that paint job is terrible..
Thanks for watching!
What size is that and how tall are you?
It’s a 55 and I’m 175 cm. Thanks for watching!
Can’t find that bike in Europe…
Really ? Well, that isn’t good. Sorry to hear that. I would have thought it’s available worldwide.
