Yes....sure...same shit.... But I'm counting the days ?

 

[zorro77]

Do I have to remove the engine to change the rear brake? I've always used the red tool for all bikes, but this is my first Giant and I don't know how to do it

No, the cable is under the motor so only the cover needs to be removed - atleast on my Stance E+2

Nothing at all available in UK, not even on the giant website.. it’s like it doesn’t even exist lol. Shhh, don’t tell the EU ruining brits

 

[1oldfart]

The Canadian website is listing sold out for all sizes.
Even when there will be dates they will be maybe, ports in Asia and North America experience
unusual delays due to Covid.
Price for the E+0 is 9,299$ canadian
Compared to other manufacturers it is a good deal.
The E+2 is only 6,899$ canadian

A Giant store near my house will open on September 18th, they invited me and they say there will be a preview of some Reign E + I will let you know

I think that this might be the most surprising new bike of 2022. On paper Giant have nailed it IMO, the bike looks good which is a first for a giant EMTB, bang on geometry, and the new Yamaha looks like a killer sytem with how Giant have integrated it.

I have always been a fan of their Maestro suspension too.

If I was looking for a full on Enduro EMTB it would be near the top of my list.

I agree, its looking really good.

I just purchased a 2022 Giant Reign E+1. I am waiting for the ride wrap to be installed. I had a Trek Rail 9.7 on order but the delivery date kept getting pushed back, now Jan 2022. The bike shop had just built this Reign so I took it for a rip. Fit me perfect so I changed my order and bought it before anyone else had a chance to look at it.

Can you tell us a bit more about the bike? Is this your first e-mtb, how does it compare...?

 

[Allout]

This is my first e-mtb but I have ridden a few other e-mtbs and countless mtbs. I have ridden the 2020 Trance E+1 pro many times, 2021 Trek Rail 7 a few times, 2020 Scott Ransom eride, 2020 Specialized Levo and Kenevo. The Reign felt similar to the Kenevo but I haven't ridden it enough to do an honest comparison. I can honestly say that every one of the bikes I listed put a huge smile on my face, this was the first one that became available to me so I purchased it.

Did it come with any chainstay protection ? Nothing visible in the release images.

We are all waiting for your feedback - about every possible aspect I expect… (Large “1” on order for me) - any photos in real life to keep us going while we wait ?

 

[zorro77]

Noise about new motor?

There is a ribbed chainstay protector but I am going from memory as the bike is still at the shop. I will take pics in the next couple days. If you go here and look at the top picture you can kinda see the protector, it is black on the gray chainstay. Reign E+ | Giant Bicycles Canada
