The bottom was the same diameter and no problem but I had to get custom hardware made for the top because the Ohlins had a slightly bigger diameter (it was off a Demo 8 ii 2015). It has been mint and I am loving it.

Dude, how did you fit the Ohlins in Glory frame ? I tried to do the same but the bottom bolt diameter it s bigger the the shock hole. I`m curios how did you do it, because I don`t think of a way. My only logical solution it s to sell the shock.

Has anyone else run a Ohlins on a Giant Glory? I am running the same spring as on the Demo 8 and its seems good.
Any feedback would be great.

Hi does anyone know where I can but the intergrated fork bumper/cable guides from for the frame. I have just bought a brand new glory and it's arrived without them. The shop can get them for me from giant but it's a 8 week wait and I wouldn't mind some before then. Thanks

What about getting some regular fork bumpers for now while you wait? At least you can run it in the meantime.

I bought 2 new sets of frame bumpers from Giant, and they broke while installing them. Very bad rubber I think. The original ones lasted 1 year at least. I will buy some regular fork bumpers.

mine arrived in the post yesterday nice and early. I had the exact same problem. Both the bumpers split round the bolts soon as I turned bars. Very poor rubber. I have resorted to putting the fox 40 bumpers on the forks and using cable ties to fix the cables to the fork crowns.
