Apr 2020 · Robin Weaver

The new Reign offers a very lively, dynamic ride but get it into the really rough stuff and it feels more like a long-travel trail bike than a mini downhill rig

Highs
  • Fox fork and shock offer plenty of useful adjustment and a really smooth, controlled feel

  • Decent geometry

Lows
  • Dropper post needs to be longer on the medium

  • Very direct feel with quite a bit of feedback so not the comfiest bike on rough trails

The new Reign has a lot going for it—it’s a looker, it climbs and descends beautifully, and above all it’s fun.

Jan 2020 · Christoph Bayer

At last! Fans have long anticipated the Giant Reign 29! So it's all the more exciting to see how the bike performs and whether the new bigger-wheeled Reign can live up to its legendary status.

Highs
  • Excellent climber

  • Instils you with confidence on steep descents

  • Poppy suspension

Lows
  • Quickly reaches its limits on rough terrain

  • Big gap between sizes

  • Little attention to detail on some parts of the frame
