Thoughts on the new 2021 Reign SX 27.5?

Look's like it's a pretty sick bike. Seems very versatile.

Have the 2021 29” SX
Love it. Climbs great. Drops greater.
The cockpit is a little tighter than my 2015 Reign cause of the head tube and seat tube angle changes.
The coil is a bit light, need another 100#.
Can’t wait for silver star to open.

Unrelated but could y'all tell me if I can put a 27.5 fork on the 2005 reign 2? Currently runs on 26".

Would you run a mullet setup then? But it should work fine, it would just mean a slacker head tube angle.

Where do you ride mostly when Silver star isn't open? That's a lot of bike for the trails I've been to on Kal. Seemed good for Baconator et al.

It's my old home (before good trails were established) and I go back there (covid notwithstanding) once or twice a year.

You can, I've heard of people using a special headset to run a tapered steerer. Suntour sells in a straight steerer 1 1/8", a few good options and decent price. I gave my 2005 Reign in Thai Green to my best friend years ago. Sounds like a worthy endeavor, go mullet!

Mostly ride Crawford, Gillard, and Smith Creek. When I can I hit Three Blind in Penticton.
That is when there is no snow.....

Kelowna, copy. Have you ridden Big white? Is it worth making a day of or would you do second at The Star?

Biggie is getting better
It’s worth the trip
The line ups at the Star were nasty some days last year because of covid but still awesome.
There is some great rocky gnar at big white and it would be a day we’ll spent.

Thanks, We shall see if the Province opens back up on time this Summer. Saw some cool Smith Creek footage on BCPOV's latest video, too.

Hey guys! Quick question, has anyone used or currently using Marzocchi CR on their reign? I currently have a 2019 Reign 2 and looking to upgrade the shock. Thanks!
