    I still have this bike and I ride it all the time. I just don't like how the motor cuts off after 20mph

    I have the same bike, I upgraded the to the Suntour 30.9mm x 350mm suspension seat post. Suntour also has an upgrade program for the forks. Please post your future upgrades.

    Hi Aaron, how do you like your Giant Talon E+3 now? I’m considering it too. What’d help me is that, why you went with this bike? Were considering others too? Thx

    Hey JayT. No, I wasn't really considering any other bikes. I went into the bike shop with my brother to get his bike fixed. I noticed this bike was in stock and in my price range. I mostly ride the bike on the streets but i'd like to hit my local foothills more often. I will still probably upgrade the front suspension + upgrade the drivetrain so I have an extra lower gear for super steep hills.. Overall, I really like this bike. I hope this helps!

    I still have this bike and ride it all the time. I still want to upgrade the forks. Something I dislike is how the motor cuts off after 20mph. After the motor cuts off, its like pedaling a sled

    Hey Dimitris, I think the motor is ok for my weight (245 lbs.) When I have the pedal assist turned all the way up, I don't use that much effort when riding on a flat surface. It's only the very steep uphill trails that i wish i had 1 more lower gear. Overall i like the bike but i will be upgrading the front suspension because the coil suspension is very springy like a pogo stick. I hope this helps. Thank you for the comment. Have a good day!

    Hey there. I'm not sure what you mean by fully automatic mode. I know it has an "automatic mode" that will automatically adjust the amount of pedal assist. Is that what you mean? I still got some learning to do with this bike haha

    No it does not have the automatic mode available on higher end Giants. Really curious if you or anyone else has upgraded the fork yet. This the stock one is a pogo stick.
