Giant Trance X Advanced E+ Elite 3 Messier/Panther (2023)
Accelerate up climbs, sail over rocks and boulders, and enjoy more power, maneuverability, and control with a lightweight full-suspension e-bike. A new ultra-slim battery minimizes weight so you can ride technical trails the way you've always dreamed.
Main advantages
Lower weight
The new EnergyPak 400 battery has been designed with maximum space efficiency in mind. You get all the power, but in a smaller package that is cleanly integrated into the carbon frame.
Advanced control
The RideControl Ergo 3 remote is mounted on the all-new integrated Giant Contact SLR carbon handlebar. The controls can be mounted on either side of the handlebar, so you can customize the controls to your needs and the cockpit is uncluttered with optically clean lines.
More power
The new SyncDrive Pro motor, developed in collaboration with Yamaha, delivers a powerful 85Nm of torque and weighs just 2.7kg, resulting in more powerful acceleration and better climbing ability on technical trails.
Advanced Composite Technology
In our own carbon processing factory, we use premium raw carbon with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio to produce our custom Advanced Composite material. The front triangle of the frame is assembled and cured in the mold as one continuous piece (monocoque) using a patented manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.
Maestro Repellent System
Four strategically placed pivots and two rocker arms work together to create a single virtual (floating) center of rotation of the rear end. This neutralizes the action of the rear brake and makes the system fully active and highly responsive to all types of unevenness, without unwanted sway when pedaling. The floating center increases pedaling efficiency by counteracting the pedaling forces that would otherwise create sway when pedaling (squatting) and pedal kickback when the shock is compressed (so-called pedal kickback). This eliminates energy loss during riding, allowing you to ride smoother and with much less effort.Learn more about the Maestro suspension system
SyncDrive Pro engine
Yamaha’s SyncDrive Pro motor comes in two versions. The Explore E+ Pro, Fathom E+ Pro and Stance E+ Pro e-bikes feature Yamaha’s SyncDrive Pro motor with 80Nm of torque and up to 360% support. The Trance X Advanced E+, Trance X E+ and Reign E+ models feature Yamaha’s next-generation SyncDrive Pro motor. It delivers higher torque (85Nm) and maximum support (400%) while being smaller, lighter and significantly quieter. It’s designed and tuned to work with our Maestro suspension and handle rougher terrain.More information about the SyncDrive Pro motor
