Prototype: Giant 650B Enduro Race Bike
The whole Giant Factory Off-Road Enduro Team turned up with new bikes in Punta Ala.
The news about that bike were quite evident: 650B wheels!
Joe, the team manager didn’t give any details about the bike, but we suppose that it will have 140-150mm of travel.
As this bike is already made out of carbon fibre it is supposed to be close to the final production bike.
Nevertheless the rear triangle is still made out of aluminium.
