I think it is and I'm sure there was some discussion about it....

IIRC it's a giant box (1 or 2) low/ entry level urt

Most of the discussion seems to be about pricing. Anyway its called a Giant Box.

Looks like my Giant Box One, mine is 1998 and cost £750 according to some magazine ads.

It rides rather well, I like it, the forks on mine are a little soft and the drivetrain upgraded but I still like it.

Frame itself is light, if not to everyone's taste. It's a URT design and doesn't suffer too much from bounce when pedalling.

thanks for this. whats the rear tyre on your bike? i like the look of it...

IRC El Gato on the rear.
IRC Back Country (rear) on the front.

They're looked good in a pair, I do prefer matching tyres, but the colour looked good on the bike.
