Product Information
Giant Cypress 3 2012.
How can a bike at this price be so comfortable? The Giant Cypress 3 is the replacement for the old Elwood Se. It was such a popular bike, but has been made even better. The bike has an all new frame, lighter and stronger. While it has these features, probably the greatest benefit is that it looks so good.
As with the more expensive models it has a better paint finish than most competitors. The paint is thicker (usually twice as thick) and has a super tough protective clear coat to ensure that it will still look great in years to come. The saddle has been chosen for its plush feel and has been sprung to ensure protection, it is then mounted on a seat post that has an inbuilt suspension system. It takes any jolts out of the ride, so you really can cruise along in great comfort.
The Shimano gears are are easy to operate even though 21 gears may sound daunting at first. Changing is simple to use, with a very light in the action, so gear changing is easy. It is actually designed to be simple for inexperienced cyclists, so the emphasis is on ease of use, not performance..
We offer 12 months free service, together with Giant's lifetime warranty, so you can be assured your attention will be on the passing scenery rather than the bike.
