Second-hand Giant: what people ask for a used TCR, Trance or Revolt

“Second-hand Giant” is a very common search for a simple reason: Giant makes a huge number of bikes, for itself and for other brands, and in Spain you see them everywhere, from the Sunday group ride to the enduro trails. There's plenty of used supply and that's good for you, but it also means you need to tell one Giant from another before setting a price.

Here's a benchmark based on our own data: what's being asked in the active listings on bicis.net, by type of bike, and how each Giant family fits within that range.

What people ask for a used bike, by category

These figures are what sellers ask on bicis.net, not the final price: there's almost always some room to negotiate. There aren't yet enough listings from a single brand to give a reliable figure just for Giant, so the useful thing is to look at your bike's category and place it within its range.

Data from 217 active “For sale” listings, as of 27 October 2026. Source: Cycling in figures by bicis.net.

How to read it: a quarter of the listings ask less than the low range and another quarter ask more than the high range. Half sit in between. Giant is known for giving a lot of bike for the money when new, and that shows when used too: many units sit close to the median, with the carbon and high-end ones climbing towards the top.

Giant road bikes: TCR, Defy and Propel

TCR: the all-rounder

It's Giant's classic race bike, with its compact frame and sloping top tube. It's good for climbing and for riding fast, which is why it's one of the most sought after. An aluminium TCR with an entry-level groupset usually sits below the road median; a carbon TCR Advanced with discs heads towards the high range.

Defy: the endurance bike

More relaxed geometry, wide tyres and comfort for long hours. It's Giant's bike for sportives and for those starting out on the road, and it sells well because it suits lots of people. If you're selling one, say what tyre width it takes and whether it has discs: that's the first thing people ask.

Propel: the aero bike

The fastest on the flat and the most expensive new. Used, it holds the top of the range if it has deep-section wheels and an electronic groupset, but those are exactly the extras you need to list clearly in the ad.

Giant gravel: Revolt

The Revolt is one of the most common gravel bikes in Spain. On bicis.net there are still too few gravel listings to give a reliable figure, so compare it with road bikes: an aluminium Revolt is usually listed below the road median and a carbon Revolt Advanced, above it. Check the drivetrain wear and whether it still has the dropper post lock, if it came with one.

Giant mountain bikes: Talon, XTC, Anthem, Trance and Reign

Mountain bikes are the category with the most listings, so the comparison here is more solid.

Hardtails: Talon and XTC

The Talon is the entry-level hardtail, very common as a first mountain bike. Used, it's usually in or near the low range. The XTC, carbon and race-oriented, is listed above the median.

Full suspension: Anthem, Trance and Reign

The Anthem is the marathon and XC full-suspension bike; the Trance, the do-it-all trail bike; the Reign, the enduro bike. All three are usually listed above the mountain bike median and many in the high range. On all of them, the Maestro rear suspension has linkages and bearings that wear out: ask when they were replaced and request the invoice for the last fork and shock service.

Liv, Giant's sister brand, has equivalent models with their own geometries (Tempt, Intrigue, Langma, Avail). They're valued the same as their Giant counterpart, so use the same range.

Giant e-bikes: Trance X E+, Reign E+, Fathom E+ and Explore E+

E-bikes are the most expensive second-hand category: their median is well over double that of mountain bikes. Giant has mountain e-bikes (Trance X E+, Reign E+, Fathom E+) and leisure or touring ones (Explore E+, Roam E+).

On a used e-bike, the battery rules. Ask for the charge cycles or a shop diagnostic, check that the motor doesn't make strange noises and that the bike hasn't been tuned above 25 km/h. A Trance X E+ with a healthy, serviced battery stays in the high range; with a tired battery it can lose almost half, because replacing it costs a lot.

What raises and lowers the price of a used Giant

• Raises it: Advanced carbon frame, disc brakes, electronic groupset, invoice, recent shop service, common size (M or L) and clear photos.
• Lowers it: rim brakes on a road bike, unserviced linkages and suspension, a battery with no data, knocks on the frame, parts swapped for lower-spec ones and very small or very large sizes.
• Barely changes it: the colour and accessories that aren't part of the bike. Sell them separately.

For a figure for your bike specifically, try the bike valuation tool, and if you want to understand the method, read the guide on how much my second-hand bike is worth.

Buy or sell your Giant on bicis.net

If you're looking for one, browse the second-hand listings and filter by category and province. Before paying, arrange to see it, try the size and check that the serial number matches the invoice.

If you're selling, give the exact family and level (a TCR isn't the same as a TCR Advanced Pro), the size, the approximate year and what it comes with. A clear listing, with good photos and a price within its category's range, sells sooner.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a second-hand Giant mountain bike worth?

On bicis.net, the median asking price for a used mountain bike is €813, with half the listings between €450 and €1,380 (98 listings, data as of 27 October 2026). A Talon will be at the lower end; a well-kept Trance or Reign, at the top.

Do Giants lose a lot of value?

Like any bike, the first year shows and after that it drops more slowly. As it's a very widespread brand, it's easy to find a buyer, which helps you sell at a reasonable price. Rim-brake bikes and e-bikes with a tired battery are the ones that drop the most.

Is a Liv worth the same as a Giant?

Yes, in practice. Liv is Giant's brand with its own geometries and shares frames, components and quality with its equivalent. Use the same range for its category.

Is there price data just for Giant?

Not yet: there aren't enough listings from a single brand to give a reliable figure. That's why we give the range for each category, based on 217 active listings, and explain where each Giant family falls.
