Giant Rincon
$500.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Most affordable model in Giant's Sport series. ALUXX-Grade Butted Aluminum frame. Women's version available.
The Rincon is the entry level bike in Giant's sport series followed by the Yukon and Yukon FX. Sharing the hardtail (no rear suspension) design as the Yukon, this bike retails for 150 dollars less which can be attributed to cheaper components, although it has a similar ALUXX-Grade Butted Aluminum Hydroformed frame which make it a good starter bike.

Typically components may be upgraded later, but the base model comes with an SR XCM suspension fork, Tektro I.O. disc brakes, Shimano Alivio rear derailleurs and a choice of Kenda Nevegal tires with the black version or Kenda Small Block 8 with the silver. XS, S, M, L and XL sizes are available along with a women's version called the Rincon W which has a redesigned frame and is offered in silver/red trim and four sizes. Separate specs for the mens and womens version have been printed below and pictures for each have been included.
