Market: Even before the Eurobike, Giant is presenting the new products for the coming year. In addition to the models already presented [Link], one also presents the revised one Reignwhich that Trance SX for the Enduro area will replace.

In the off-road sector, Giant comes with a new 27.5 Reign model series for the enduro sector. The 2015s Reign-model series solves the Trance SX series and is set to cause a sensation in the growing global enduro market. Consequently, the new Reign model series is based on the 27.5 wheel dimension that was introduced last year. The wider controlled ones are new linkage plates, which are now on the outside and the Teacher-Let the rear end become even stiffer.

The upper damper pivot of the Maestro system comes with cartridge bearings, which further improves maintenance and response. The rider is thus offered 160 millimeters of spring travel both at the front and at the rear. Because the cables are routed completely inside, the Reign looks very tidy overall, which is particularly successful with the carbon frame variants (advanced models). For the first time it will be a carbon version in the Teacher-Area above the Trance give.

The Reign-model series now also comes with a rear thru-axle and goes to Overdrive 1 standard in the headset. In addition, the Reign is equipped with an ICG05 chain guide. This is also located under the top model Reign Advanced 0 Reign Advanced 1 to be available. In addition to the two carbon versions, the 2015 Reign also be available in two aluminum versions: As Regen 1 and in a high-equipment Limited version as Reign 2 LTD.
