Gr8 mid stroke support.

230psi with 81kg? That's one rigid setup I guess? Attention

Reign needs quiete hig pressure. There is high leverage ratio. How much do you run? They improved it in new generation.

flag endor: full as possible :-D

I'm 94 kg without backpack and running my X2 with 210 psi and 2 volume spacers. I experience quite a progressive suspension, I've never had it bottoming out.

Got a Reign 2016 with normal 200x57 (7.875"x2.25") rear shock.
Is it possible to use it on new Reigns with Trunnion Mount?

No.... totally different shock size, stroke and mounting hardware

2017 Giant Reign Advanced 1.

Anybody know the bearing size(s) for the hubs, specifically rear. From research I believe it's a DT Swiss 360 but having a hard time finding any information on it.

The closest document I have found is: https://dycteyr72g97f.cloudfront.net/uploads/WXD10000000897S/MAN_WXD10000000896S_WEB_EN_001.pdf

So I am guessing, 15/28 x 7 mm ?

When I cinch the axle the wheel exhibits friction, like it's pushing the adapter into the bearing.

I’m not sure but I think they are rebranded Formula hubs. You really have to scour the giant website for any real info.

This is also what I determined after a lot of digging but go to DT Swiss website and there is zero info on the 360's.

I don't believe so, 350's are star rachet, mine are 3 pawl.

That's the manual I have so thanks! Not sure how long I will keep these hubs as I am on my third TRX1 wheel, pretty crappy wheel IMO. Maybe go with a set of Hunt wheels (not sure about their hubs either) but the price is nice.

They're pretty heavy (27.5 | 33 Wide Int. | 1994g), I would just go for Hope laced to Stans, be about the same price but no questions on the quality.

Yep, http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/nz/en/hope-tech-enduro-pro-4-mtb-wheelset/rp-prod147148 same money for Pro 4's and Hope rims.

What are you damaging. I have found DT Swiss ratchet hubs to last better than most withnthe exception of the night dollar hubs. Take therm apart clean and grease the ratchets and they just keep going.

Looking at new wheels, the 2017 reign has a boost fork and non-boost rear. Is the standard front wheel a non-boost wheel with adaptors or is it a boost hub.
Just wondering as if I need to buy a boost for the front and non for the rear it means buying them separate and you don't get as good a price.
