Giant Cypress DX Men’s Bicycle
So I’m eyeing the 2007 Cypress DX made by Giant. Anyone have any info on this bike and why I should (or should not) get it? It’s a decent price since the new models are out and I like it but I thought I’d check on some feedback from those of you out there. The new prices are higher (disc breaks) but took some features (adjustable suspension) away.
They color’s a neutral grey/silver so it shouldn’t bother me when I scratch it. I guess the one I had was a 19 inch frame, I’d have to check the receipt, I put a deposit for next week. But I’m still looking… I like the Front suspension and seatpost suspension, nice on the bumps, configurable too. If I want my old seat back that should work with it too, the handlebars are configurable too, up/down and back/forth. I think it has the light weight 6061 ALUXX (aluminum) alloy comfort frame.

Pretty…
Cool. It’s shiny. You said all those big words about it. It’s the right price.
Go for it.
I don’t think you’ll be disappointed, but I’m mostly saying that because I’m slightly jealous.
You didn’t mention price, but I’m seeing this bike on sale (new) for around $340. I like the DX too and it seems to be a real good value. I test rode an LX and thought highly of the “feel” – I expect that the DX should feel the same. I’ve compared some Fuji (Crosstown 1.0 -> 4.0) and Trek (7200/7500) models but I really liked the solid “feel” of the Giant Cypress. I’m a real newbie with current bike technology but I’m going to pull the trigger with the Cypress DX myself. Good luck.
That’s about the price I’m seeing it too, I think it was $339, but the guy said don’t be surprised if it’s another $30 off when I go to pick it up. Which will be tomorrow if it’s good weather!
They new models just came in so these should go down. I think they offer 30 price protection (their store or anyone local) so if it’s not then, it should be soon
I really liked the Trek 7300 from 2007, but it’s still $100 more and no one has one local to try it out again…
The End(?) of the Bicycle Story
So I got my new bicycle! I got the Cypruss DX from Giant (2007 model) it’s got 24-speeds (about a dozen more than I need) and is silver and gray-ish (I think they call it silver/silver); it’s the one I mentioned the other day. I think these are the 200…
