Yeah, it's what we have here in ND. You can MAYBE find a Giant dealer, if you look hard enough.
It will work well for me, probably over what I need, and will use it for, but it's nice. Much better than my $69 Next I was riding.
The wife is now on that one. She was riding an old Tank (yes that's the brand, and it fits, it's HEAVY) that is worn out. The Next is a huge upgrade for her, but she now wants a "fancy" bike since I got one.
Oh well, I guess if it gets her out exercising, it's worth it.

I have heard that Giant makes Forge bikes for Target. The price on the top-line Forge is around $550 with full-suspension. Not too bad. I'm pretty happy so far with my Iron Horse. For $479, it's hard to beat!

Huh, maybe we'll stop in there too. Granted, that's more than I paid for my Trek...

From inside the industry, Giant is the leading frame manufacturer in the world. (Read: quantity, not quite quality) They produce frames for Fuji and a zillion other brands, including Wall-mart specials. They have the manufacturing process down like Honda.

Any idea if they make the Iron Horse frames?

Thank you very much! I have the most experience relative to the rest of the cast but, the growth of everyone is amazing in the short time we've been filming. Episodes 7 & 8 which come out tonight and tomorrow are the episodes I directed. I can't wait to see how they turned out!
