    Reign E+ 2022

    To be more accurate : S-works framekit I bought 4.500€. Reign e+1 2024 was discounted 30% 5.600€ [S-works om sale (complete) 8.000€] I had most parts for complete build using the frame set, (using Giant E TRX wheels from my Old Reign) So total cost would be c.a. the same. …for me ;)

    Reign E+ 2022

Giant motor power at low cadense is better, S-works was same price as heavily discounted Rein E+1 2024, I needed one size smaller,, Giant did not want to sell frame only. But for racing Yamaha needs to do some updates. else I would have chosen the...

    Reign E+ 2022

    Thanks! Giant did the same Q4 2022. You can buy Giant/Panasonic cells now and they are double the price, of 20% less capacity, same size cells. Just the cells for 800wh battery weight 3.000gr 266-280wh/kg so 3.300gr for a complete battery is highly unlikely. Solid state batteries will move...

    Reign E+ 2022

    Same chemestry applies to Giant, Orbea, Nicolai and Dji. No magic, and no further brakethroug in cell tech on the market. New players might be playing the numbergame with theoratical capacity stretched out the get the hype. 22700 cells in Giant 400/800wh are 20% more energydens than 18650...
