Giant Talon 2 2018 vs. XDS Boss 4.0 2018 Review!

Ivanhoe Cycles Hallam staff member Manish does an honest review of the pros and cons of the 2018 Giant Talon 2 and the 2018 XDS Boss 4.0 mountain bikes. How do they compare? Watch the video to see our take on it :-D

[@mitchyboy3277]

do a video comparing the talon 3 and another mountain bike at a similar price point

[@kalepotter9451]

turn background music off and back away from the microphone, its hard to hear and understand you. also, add price and quality comparison between the 1, 2, and 3, PLease!

Great review except i do t know why you would say that the talon 2 has “all the key features”...when it has a max crankset of 36 meaning that if you are climbing you'll be struggling compared to somoene riding in the less expensive talon 3 .

[@county582]

What type of dropper post would be best suited to the talon 2

[@DontAskHowIGotIt]

where can i get one in the U.S.?

[@unsein8972]

bro, talon 2 2020 model is it available and can you ship this item to saudi arabia? thanks.

[@IvanhoeCycles]

Sorry to say we're all sold out of the 2020 models. 2021 ones are arriving now though. I'm guessing the Saudi stores would be getting them in too?

Where is that bike shop

[@IvanhoeCycles]

Hi Raul, We're based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. But this particular bike review was filmed at our Hallam store.

Can you change the talon 2 forks mate?

[@sushruthravishankar105]

St George yes u can. I upgraded mine to a rock shox reckon 120mm of travel

[@bobbyhempel1513]

So how much did you get paid for this " unbiased" (lmao) review?

[@IvanhoeCycles]

Lol nothing, believe it or not. The guys at Hallam are just super passionate about bikes and analyzing the differences between mountain bikes that are on the market. We are primarily a Giant dealer and always will be :-)
