Bikes: Giant NRS 2005

Review submitted by:
Don


Gear type: Bike

Brand(s): Giant

Model: NRS 1 2005

Price paid: €1100

Where purchased: Pedalon UK

How long in use: 3 years

Pros: Well proven FS XC bike with great ability in most conditions.

3.5 inches of travel may not be much these days but still supremely competent when the going gets tough.

Put a 120mm fork on the front and you won't look back.

Climbs well with no bob (when set up right) and can put the frighteners on much more hardcore machinery when pointed downhill.

Cons: They don't make them anymore.
You'll get slagged by red haired people with big, bouncy bikes.
