Rockshox XC30 TK Fork Install Giant Talon 2

Out with the old in with the new. Finally got the time to install my new fork. What a challenge! Well worth the blood, sweat and tears.

Go with sealed bearings. I installed the risk 44mm straight steerer with my sr suntour Zeron 150mm fork. Made a noticeable difference on jumps. No slop and it holds up well with me bashing the crap out of the bike and im 230 lbs.

Hey dude giant talon 2 had 100mm travel fork right? Is it good if i install 120mm travel fork on it? Is it gonna affect the bike geometry??

[@edmtbtv5387]

For my GT 2 it had 80mm of travel so when I put on a 120mm travel fork is definitely made a difference! I believe on small size frames it’s a 80mm fork and larger frames have 100mm. In terms of geometry if you have a 100mm fork and upgrade to a 120mm fork don’t think it will effect it much

[@CapCaloyEtc]

Giant Talon 2 Small has 100mm stock for.Im planning to put 120mm travel fork also because thats the max travel for giant talon 2 I think..

[@Addie7482]

Bro can you use both tapered and straight tubes? Ty

[@edmtbtv5387]

Yes but with tapered there is an adapter. You can google this 👍🏽👊🏽
