Giant has a long history of supporting the world’s top off-road racers, dating back to 1995. The lineage of Giant-sponsored mountain bike athletes stretches from legendary names like John Tomac and Rune Hoydahl to today’s young stars including 19-year-old downhill sensation Danny Hart.
The 2011 Giant Factory Off-Road Team is the largest, most expansive team in Giant’s history. From cross-country Olympians to the fastest young downhillers in the world, this team was built to cover the entire spectrum of off-road competition.
