Product news: Last week we visited Bad Hersfeld at the Giant/Liv Partner Days and were able to get an overview of the Giant News 2020 before the start of sales. From road to MTB to powerful E-MTBs, there was a lot to see.

Giant Content AR
With the new Giant Contend AR, Giant expands its aluminum drop bar portfolio with an affordable all-rounder. Thanks to generous tire clearance up to 38mm, a comfortable aluminum frame, and appropriate features like the dampening D-Fuse seatpost, the Contend AR is suitable as an endurance or lightweight gravel bike for a variety of terrain. Road bike beginners should also be happy – especially the top model with a complete Shimano 105 groupset, in-house wheels, and 32mm-wide tires offers a 1.500 Euro everything you need to get started. The two cheaper versions are also attractive: The entry-level model with 2×9 Sora gears is available for 999 Euro will be available on the market.

Giant Reign 29 2020
When it comes to mountain bikes, there are three highlights for the 2020 season: The new Reign 29 is undoubtedly in the spotlight. Based on the tried-and-tested Reign, Giant is now also launching a genuine 29er Enduro into the race. With 146mm of travel at the rear, it offers slightly less reserves on paper than the 27,5″ Reign that is still available, but the large wheels should more than make up for the travel deficit in most scenarios. The new Reign 29 is available with carbon and aluminum frames. The top model costs 8.499 euros, the aluminum entry costs 2.699 euros.
Giant Stance 29 2020
The already well-known Giant Stance, like its enduro counterpart, the Reign, will be getting larger wheels for the coming season: The Stance 29 replaces the previous model and features a completely new frame. This features the familiar and proven FlexPoint rear end, which can't quite keep up with the Maestro of the Reign and Trance, but is perfectly adequate for the occasional trail ride. It can also be produced much more cheaply, which is reflected in the price: The top-of-the-line Stance 29 costs €1.799, while the entry-level model stays just under €XNUMX. 1.500 Euro.

Giant Reign E+
The highlight of the Giant E-MTB portfolio for the coming season is undoubtedly the new Reign E+. With this, Giant ventures into the now so popular field of e-enduros. With 160mm of spring travel at the front and rear, 27,5″ wheels and its potent geometry, the new E-MTB is clearly based on its non-motorized counterpart. As with the other E-MTBs, Giant relies on the in-house SyncDrive drive for the drive. With the Reign E+, this is used in the new SyncDrive Pro 2 variant, which is also based on the new Yamaha PW-X2 motor. From the spring, in addition to the 500Wh standard battery, a 625Wh variant will also be available for an additional charge of 200 euros. If that's not enough for you, you can add another 250Wh capacity with the Range Extender additional battery on the down tube and get to an impressive 875Wh.
Giant Stance E+ 29
Also new is the Stance E+ as a 29 inch bike. It complements the existing Stance E+ portfolio. The large wheels go very well with the touring and trail all-rounder Stance E+, which, like the Reign, relies on the SyncDrive Pro drive. Overall, the frame is a little less complex than the Reign or the Trance, but the price is pretty low: at 4.499 euros for the top model, you're in the range of many a mid-range full suspension bike without a motor.
