Looking for some insight on getting my first real bike. Mainly focused on the fitness aspect of it not so much on actual trail use outside of the occasional light trails around my house. Value is a big focus and from the little knowledge I have one these 2 seem to be a decent pick, what do you guys think? Trying to take advantage of the current pricing also.

I have two giants, so this may be a bias but I would got with the Giant.
The Giant Talon for 2025 has thru axle rather than QR skewer, that being said it’s non-boost.
However, it is still a better set up than QR skewer especially since there are disc brakes in the talon.
