Expirience with the Giant REIGN ADVANCED 1

Ludwig Döhl The Reign has always been an enduro classic and remains so in its latest edition. Especially the option of a mullet wheel setup and the storage compartment in the down tube show, however, that this classic can go with the times. When it gets rough, especially the proven Maestro rear triangle with its good function should provide peace in the rear. The combination of a 63,5 degree head tube angle and a long wheelbase calms down the handling of the Enduro von Giant, even if you ride fast. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the Enduro von Giant suite the taste of most bikers. Despite this criticism, the coherent overall concept makes the Giant REIGN ADVANCED 1 to on extremely technical trails a buying recommendation in the price range 7499 Euro range. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Giant puts a lot of trust in its products.
