The Giant Talon 2 is where most riders should start if they want a real mountain bike—not a department store compromise. This is a proper aluminum hardtail built for trail riding, rail trails, and learning real off-road skills with components that are serviceable, upgradeable, and designed to last.

Giant redesigned the Talon platform with updated geometry, internal cable routing, and modern MTB standards that make it easier to control on trails while still being efficient enough for everyday riding. This is a bike that can grow with the rider instead of needing to be replaced immediately.

Key Functional Details

  • ALUXX aluminum hardtail frame
  • Front suspension fork (80–100mm travel depending on size)
  • 1x drivetrain for simplified shifting
  • Internal cable routing including dropper compatibility
  • Modern trail geometry for improved control
  • Clearance for up to 2.4" tires
  • Available in 27.5" or 29" wheel sizes depending on frame size
  • Strong entry point into real trail riding

Technical Specifications

Frame: Giant ALUXX Aluminum Hardtail

Fork: Suspension Fork (80–100mm Travel depending on size)

Drivetrain: 1x System (varies by spec)

Rear Derailleur: Clutch-equipped (model dependent)

Wheels: 27.5" or 29" depending on frame size

Tire Clearance: Up to 2.4"

Cable Routing: Internal (dropper-ready)

Frame Material: ALUXX Aluminum

Compatibility & Technical Notes

Good Fit: new mountain bikers, trail beginners, fitness riders, and riders transitioning from pavement to dirt.

Not A Fit: aggressive downhill riding, high-end trail riding, or riders expecting premium suspension performance out of the box.

Wheel size varies by frame size. Smaller frames use 27.5” wheels for better handling, while larger frames use 29” wheels for improved rollover and stability.

Service / Ownership Context

This is a bike we can actually service long term. That matters. Many entry-level bikes cut corners with non-standard parts that make repairs frustrating or not worth doing. The Talon platform avoids that.

It is also one of the best upgrade platforms. Riders can add a dropper post, upgrade tires, or improve drivetrain performance over time without replacing the entire bike.

Fit & Use Signals

Best for:

  • Beginner trail riding
  • Rail trails and mixed terrain
  • Fitness riding
  • Riders entering mountain biking
  • Commuting with off-road capability

Not ideal for:

  • Technical downhill riding
  • Advanced trail riders needing high-end suspension
  • Bike park riding
  • Riders looking for a lightweight race bike
The biggest mistake customers make here is comparing this to department store bikes. This is a real mountain bike with serviceable components and upgrade potential. Another common mistake is expecting high-end suspension performance at this price point. The fork is built for control and comfort, not aggressive terrain at speed. The Talon 2 is one of the best "first real bikes" because it does not limit future upgrades. Riders can add a dropper post, upgrade tires, or even improve the drivetrain over time. Typical customer searches: best beginner mountain bike under 1000 hardtail mountain bike for trail riding Giant Talon 2 vs Talon 1 entry level MTB that is worth upgrading Often replacing: department store mountain bikes older hardtails with outdated geometry hybrid bikes not suited for trails Recommended shop pairings: helmet and safety setup tubeless tire conversion pedal upgrade basic MTB setup and fit adjustment Customers comparing this often also look at: Trek Marlin 6 Specialized Rockhopper Cannondale Trail SE Marin Bobcat Trail Co-op DRT 1.2

Angels and the Fallen — Breathtaking Start
Format: Kindle
This book was EVERYTHING I expected it to be and more. Leave to R.L. Caulder and M. Sinclair to give us yet another amazing book! Kieran and her guys hooked me from the very beginning and did not let go. Found family is one of my favorite tropes and it was done so well in this book. Couple that along with an FMC trying to find her place in the world and I was practically drooling over this book. The world building, the conflict, the wyverin sidekick — it all was done so well that it felt fresh and real. Each love interest felt real and unique in their own ways. I felt connected to each one and like they were truly different people. I love that so much in a book and these two authors never miss with their love interests. Multi POV, Reverse harem, who did this to you, and a magical world highlighting the angels and the fallen. This book has everything and it does it so well. Big thank you to R.L. Caulder and M. Sinclair for the arc copy! I cannot wait for book 2!

A new take 🤔
Format: Kindle
I’m not going to go into what this book is about — by now you e already read the synopsis and have an idea — but I will give a couple of insights. Definitely a different take on angels and their fall; I like it. This is an interesting start to a new series - YES, this does end on a cliffhanger so be prepared for that. I’m eager for the next book (and hopefully the last in this series — sometimes the author(s) will switch it up depending on how the story flows for them) in this series. I’m hoping that a certain male character redeems himself because he’s a dick that will make the meaning of mixed signals jealous lol. You ever watch that old movie — I think it’s call Mommy Dearest? — yea, let’s switch that up to daddy. That man would make a perfect husband to mommy dearest. I recommend this book because while these authors are well known for their cliffhangers, they are also well known for putting out good stories.

Liked it
Format: Kindle
I liked the worlds and the characters. The prophesy is confusing in that I would think, since all worlds ore on a path to destruction, the angels would want their world to be saved. I am sure there is more evil that will be revealed as the series proceeds. I dislike a prolonged “poor little me” trope and the main character has moved past that, thankfully, and began to show a fierce attitude as the novel progressed. The last portion of the novel had some great action. It’s worth reading, just be patient with a slow start.

Unexpectedly emotional and packed with action!
Format: Kindle
Why do I suddenly want nothing more than a tiny wyvern to snuggle with?! It’s adorable and I absolutely love all of those moments! Wings of Stars was everything I’ve come expect from this powerful author duo. The fact that it’s written by two different people is completely transparent to the reader and they’ve brought us another world and characters that we’re all emotionally connected to and fully invested in! The injustice that we see from Alfemir in the many forms in which it comes is infuriating and makes me desperate for the conclusion of the story so they can all get what’s coming to them! I love all the guys right now, with one exception, and if you’re read it, you know exactly who I’m talking about. Bastian is hilarious - he was the comedic relief through an otherwise quite serious story. My heart bleeds for him and I can’t wait to see how he progresses through the series. Parts of Wings of Stars were unexpectedly emotional and of course I was left with my jaw on the floor at that cliffhanger! Next, please!

Niz !!!
Format: Kindle
First, let me say that I love both of these authors. I have been hooked by both ever since I discovered their writings, and I follow their social media groups closely. This book did not disappoint. Sure, there are several questions that I have, a couple of times I went huh (which I won't get into because I do not want to offer any spoilers) and I hated the cliff hanger lol, but I cannot lie and say I didn't love the book, because I did. The twist on angels was new and fresh, even though that is part of my questions. The beginning and ending were the better parts, the middle was needed but sorta bogged a little. Kieran was confusing but relatable. Niz is BY FAR the best character of the book, love NIZ. For me, Bastian is a close second, always loved the crazy ones. The other men were good, but Steele gets on my nerves and as of right now, IMO, he doesn't belong, but we will see how that goes. I have lots of questions, but this was an excellent start to a new series and I cannot wait for the next book. Highly recommend
