    Reign E+ 2022

    Yeah, I dunno. The Husky website is pretty shoddy, and I since I've had a pretty good overall experience with Giant, having owned a number of their bikes, the Reign E+ was at the top of my list.

    I had been eyeing the EXC10... a DH bike with a motor? HELL YES

    Reign E+ 2022

    Ha! I would agree. YOLO. However, I already passed up buying from the Giant website last month, and now it looks like those bikes have gone out to shops across the US and are no longer available to purchase directly from the website. I now have to wait for my LBS to get the E+ 3 anyways. 🤷‍♂️

    Reign E+ 2022

    Awesome! I've been obsessing over the new Reign E+ ever since it was unveiled. Giant pretty much improved upon virtually everything I had an issue with in the previous Reign E+ (and the Trance E+). Shorter chainstay being a HUGE deal. I'm a shorter rider at 5'6/168cm, so the 470mm chainstays of...

    Reign E+ 2022

    Well, I'm hoping that the end-of-year ETA that M01 got only applies to the E+2, and that the E+3s will arrive sooner. 🤞 But yes, I do have another ride to tie me over til then... 2019 Trance E+ 1 that I've SX'd out with 160mm front travel and a DHX2 (55mm stroke) in the rear.

    Reign E+ 2022

    I'm gonna take the SuperDeluxe Ultimate Coil I have off my non-E Reign and put it on the Reign E+. I cut the spacer to extend the stroke to 65mm. I weight ~165 lbs/75kg and will be using a 400# spring. Hopefully it will be just right!

    Reign E+ 2022

    End of the year!? Jesus. The E+ 3 in size S was in stock on Giant's website last month and I was ready to order one and have it shipped to my LBS in 7 days, but I held off cuz my LBS told me I wouldn't get the extended warranty if I didn't buy specifically through them. But now I've been...

    E bike specific parts are just a gimmick?

    Road bikers are masochists

    Reign E+ 2022

    Giant's US site shows that the Reign E+ 3 is/was available and units are going out to dealers across the country. Waiting for my LBS here in Los Angeles to get one in size S. The wait is excruciating! GET OVER HERE This color should look real nice with sunlight reflecting off it...

    Reign E+ 2022

    I called my local shop here in Los Angeles, and they told me the same thing. I am soooo bummed about this. I had my heart pretty set on the E+ 1. I really dig the light grey finish, and the Fox Performance Elite suspension and XT groupset is solid. For those of you in the US who also want to see...

    Hello from Giant Trance E+ 1 rider in Los Angeles!

    Whatsup, fellow e-bikers! I've lurked for a little while, but have decided to emerge from the shadows. E-bikes are pretty much the greatest thing ever!!!! How far we've come since the days of those old 90's steeds.... I've had my 2019 Giant Trance E+ 1 since the end of '19, and have made a few...
