We have Faith in the youth to carry on the traditions, stewardship, and love of riding bikes. Giant Bicycles is renewing that Faith with an all-new, updated youth mountain bike. It’s a renewal, as the Giant Faith isn’t a new line, but it’s reimagined for a new generation of kids who want to have fun and shred.
The frame boasts features like internal cable routing, dropper post compatibility, and a tapered headtube. Its construction looks very beefy and on par with some serious alloy trail bikes. The graphics are cool and understated, with a bit of skate style mixed in. Plus, there is lots of blank space for stickers, and if your kids are like mine… the more, the better.Next up is the wheelset, and that, too, is youth-focused.
All Faith models have youth-specific cranks, brake levers, and new Contact Switch AT Lite dropper seat posts. The Contact Switch AT Lite dropper has a lighter action and requires less force/weight to initiate the drop, making it much easier for kids to use. The grips and levers are also youth-focused, with a smaller diameter grip and easier-to-access levers.Both Faith models feature FlexPoint rear suspension systems with a Crest FloTrac Lite shock.
