Giant Reign X1 Review Giant Reign X1 Review
Giant's Reign X1 looks to be one very capable do-everything type of machine. With 6.7inches of rear travel paired up to a Fox 160mm fork, the Reign X1 is looking to reign over the downhills, but still be able to get back to the top without too much hassle. For 2010 Giant redesigned the frame to eliminate the pierced downtube and shed some weight, something that can only help the bike's performance. Have a look inside to read two rider's perspectives on the revised X1!

Jared Rando Bike Check Jared Rando Bike Check
Jared is 28 and hails from Canberra Australia, but has been living in Huntington beach this season racing and testing bikes for Giant and suspension for Fox Racing Shox. He's on board the all new 2010 Giant Glory and this is the 4th revision he's seen to the frame since first receiving his first prototype last year. Weight was the biggest thing that Giant had to over come when creating the new Glory and by the looks of things, they have achieved just that. Jared's personal Saint and Fox equipped Glory was tipping the scales at approx. 38 pounds, so that tells us that Giant has shed the weight that was needed to be shed.

Giant Reign X0: Is this the XC rider's DH bike or the DH rider's XC bike? Giant Reign X0: Is this the XC rider's DH bike or the DH rider's XC bike?
Giant is a huge player in the world of bikes. By looking at Giant's bikes from the past you can tell they do their homework before letting the public spend their hard earned money on one of their creations. Nothing with funny geometry or weird and unproven parts spec, just solid well thought out bikes. The Reign X0 that I have been rolling on lately has been no different.
