The seat sucked, and that's a common complaint with this model, but that can be changed easily enough.

Are Treks more or less the equivalents of Giants? Considering models in the same price range, of course. I would think there's an advantage to having a local bike shop for support and these guys get good reviews for customer service.
I have a trek mountain bike, it's good quality, I doubt you would be sorry with the purchase, however, I've never had a Giant, but as Tonka said he knows tall guys who ride Giants, (sorry could not resist)
