with some of the best components in the business. From a performance perspective, the new Trance Advanced E+ Elite 0 is powered by the new SyncDrive Pro 2 system. This e-bike motor was developed in collaboration with Yamaha, and offers up to 85 Newton-meters of torque and up to 400-percent assistance. It weighs in at just 2.7 kilograms, contributing to the bike's lightweight design.
Powering the impressive system is the new EnergyPak Smart 400 battery. For this, Giant teamed up with electronics giant Panasonic, who developed the battery pack around 22700 cells. The company explains that 22700 cells are lighter, while being more energy-dense than standard cells found in other e-bike battery packs. On top of that, they're said to be capable of staying cooler, translating to improved energy output, lower stress, and a longer service life.
As for the frame, the new Trance is built out of carbon fiber, ensuring low weight and agile handling even on the most technical of trails. It's fitted with a 150-millimeter front suspension fork, while rear wheel travel is set at 140 millimeters. On top of all that, the new Trance X Advanced E+ Elite 0 now runs a mullet setup, meaning it's rocking a 29-inch wheel up front and a 27.5-inch wheel at the back.
