nice giant... oh i mean uhhh nice cove! love the paint. what is the weight?

whistlerrider20 (Mar 3, 2011 at 20:29)

I believe (haven't weighed it after the 2010 forks) that its 39 and a half or 40lbs.

marlon-d (Mar 3, 2011 at 20:32)

thats an okay weight. so what is the weight of the frame itself? if you know.

whistlerrider20 (Mar 4, 2011 at 15:30)

Cant say that i do, im not really up to stripping it down, ya know?

marlon-d (Mar 4, 2011 at 20:40)

yeah. thought you might have had it stripped down at some point and had it weighed while it was stripped. yeah i heard glorys from these years rode amazing?

I love this bike, the suspension is bottomless, and its super active, even when braking, the 2009 forks i had weren't the right match for this, but now that i have the 2010 ones, it is PERFECT.

i just got a 2008 reign X1 frame and i have heard good things out of them. i have heard 2008 and all the tears with this design were really good. cant wait to build it and ride it.

The Maestro link is, in my opinion, one of the best link systems ever created. Why Giant went to DW is something i will never understand.

marlon-d (Mar 5, 2011 at 9:50)

yeah. i really want to try a glory from 2008 and so on. i havent heard anybody really saying that the new glory is amazing. alot about the older ones. i(kinda) know this guy who sold his glory and bought a demo. then insantly after riding the demo he wanted his glory back. i love the paint on your bike. is it sprayed purple and then you just threw paint at it?

I got a paintbrush, some paint and just kinda went to town. Big Grin

mbalcita (Feb 26, 2011 at 17:44)

why are there cove stickers when the bike is clearly a giant glory?

whistlerrider20 (Feb 26, 2011 at 19:05)

To confuse and anger people.

mbalcita (Feb 26, 2011 at 20:33)
