Giant reckons their Reign 29er could be the ultimate Enduro machine but what do we make of it after subjecting it to eight months of testing?

The Giant Reign SX 29 fits in somewhere between an everyday trail bike and the new crop of long-travel 29er freeride sled.

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
Fox fork and shock offer plenty of useful adjustment and a really smooth, controlled feel
Decent geometry
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 Giant Reign 29 is the long awaited 29er version of the Giant Reign. Full carbon frame with Maestro rear suspension delivering 146mm travel.
Good sizing, competitive pricing
Intermittent rear brake rub

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.
Excellent climber
Instils you with confidence on steep descents
Poppy suspension
Quickly reaches its limits on rough terrain
Big gap between sizes
Little attention to detail on some parts of the frame
