If you want one of these you'll have to buy a Giant Glory. Giant bought the frame design.

It wasn't "their linkage" to begin with. It's Dave Weagle's link, hence why it's called the "DW Link." Dave didn't like the direction that Iron Horse was going in (one retail outlet in the US with otherwise exclusive online sales) so he didn't allow them to re-use his patent for the 2010 year.

Well hell, I don't blame Mr. Weagle. Look at Canada, IH is, or was a perfectly good company that coulda made lots of cash here, yet they subject themselves to Sportchek. Tsk tsk, appearently they are not bankrupt though, I read on mtbr that they are just switching owners at the moment and stuff is finalizing.

hey bikenurse giant didnt but the design, they are just raising their maestro suspension out of the frame... its basically the same as the rionhorse DWlink but with a tiny difference so they can still call it maestro

ya I don't know what he's talking about, it's Turner that bought their DW Linkage, he should go look at the new DHR or any of their 2010 lineup
