Yes I have raced my E bike. I participated in the CES (California enduro series) it was the first time I’ve ever raced a mtb and I was 64yrs young when I did my first race. A lot of fun and yes I ran hard but short of hospitalization speed. I learned a lot about riding difficult terrain at speed...
I generally buy second from the top of the line in all my sports equipment then as things wear out I upgrade to top of the line parts. The EBike has been different I bought 3rd from tbe top of the line and have upgraded to the. Est version of the bike possible. It’s now such a great bike and I...
Does anyone know if it changes tbe data in tbe computer effecting the power to pedals? Does there need to be a change in tbe chainring and if so more or less teeth?
It’s unfortunate you don’t get to enjoy the auto on your bike. I have a Giant Reign and love the Yamaha motor and auto assist. I use it mostly on varied terrain so I only have to think of microadjusting with my gears. On long steep climbs it’s better to go manual and when I race I go manual...
Thanks, I’ll check into this. Giant does have their own platform for the Yamaha motor. I liked tge interface on the unit shown better than the Giants. I’m 65 and race the CES. I liked his reasoning on how to tune t vs e motor. I’ll try detuning the higher modes firdt.
2022 E Reign Pro+ 2, Upgrades include 2022 ultimate fork innards, MRP coil shock w/progressive spring, 800w battery 190 dropper post, and a new frame. The original frame had a crack on the bottom of the down tube. Giant replaced it right away and I like the color even better. They also paid for...
I have a 22 Reign and love it. I’ve been upgrading parts that either get destroyed or wear out. It’s now a top of the line model with a coil which has made it even better downhill.. I had a 2020 version and the new version handles way better but the longer chainstays on the older model made it a...
I’m a COB who has my 2nd EReign and love it. At 64 I ride a thousand plus mi a yr. No problems with motor or battery but after 2 seasons 1 racing CES series I cracked the frame. My LBS never had this happen and they sell a lot of giant bikes and have them in their renal fleet. Replaced within 1...
There are many variables that go into that answer. I’m a sports therapist I rehab people from surgeries all tbe tkme and in general hips are a straight forward procedure and heal very well. If you go into the surgery in good shape plus or minus 5 lbs of an ideal weight and eat well you’ll...
I recommend you make a written agreement with the seller if the bikes warranty is not transferable and needs warranty work they will submit the claim therefore making the warranty good. I did it and after 2 yrs. I problems. Oh I recommend a Giant you’ll get a good deal because they are lass...
I. Been upgrading my E Reign +2 this season. Went with Diety 38 ride aluminum bars cut to 770 (I’m 5’11”) Put a 50mm stem up from a 35 I am beteeen a med/lg and went with med. much better feel. Took stack down 5mm for better cornering.
Went with MRP Hazzard with 400lb progressive spring (185lbs...
Just put a MRP Hazzard with progressive spring on my Giant e reign. I was looking for better handling over rough chunky trrrain in the mountains and I got it! Half dozen rides so far and I just made my first adjustment from what the factory set it up for. Seems like I’ll find my settings and...
I ride enduro/DH in the Lake Tahoe region and race tve Ca enduro series. I love my Yamaha PW3. Racing I use full boost and go as hard as possible, no problems. I ride rough and rugged singletrack using the 5 power modes and often come back with more battery than my buddies. Over 1000mi no...
Hi everyone, I just did my first ride on my new suspension and have an update. First I have a 2022 E Reign +2 with an 800 W battery that Giant replaced after I had an issue with the original 625 W. I paid an extra $280 dollars to upgrade to yve 800. I upgraded the Zeb 170 with 2022 ultimate...
Well after a lot of research I've decided to order an MRP Hazzard with a progressive spring. I'll be going over specs with the service manager tomorrow who said the have sold many of these to Giant E bike owners (the Trance as well) He also said if I want a more active feel to add more rebound...
Are you running a progressive spring? if so what brand? Rock Shox super deluxe ultimate air does not do an aftermarket tuned shock for e bikes so I'm back looking at the coil shock again. My rider weight is 180lbs, I dont purposely do big jumps I ride hard enduro style do you believe the coil...
