Lots of options, including mullet with the new, highly adjustable Giant Reign.

Giant’s updated Reign offers comfort and confidence when the going gets steep, with a solid parts package that’s very well considered for the price
Meaningful geometry adjustment
Reasonably efficient climber
Very confident and capable in steep terrain
Practical parts package
Bar/grip/stem combo feels a little harsh
Not the quietest bike in the rough

Giant’s engineering team completely overhauled the Reign Advanced for 2023 with a frame redesign that has now moved away from the somewhat ‘freeride’ style geometry numbers that the Reign has adopted in the past, and instead they set out to create a purebred, no-compromise enduro race bike!

There are bikes that make it easy to ride fast. They offer a lot of grip, the rider is positioned centrally on the bike and they're easy to handle. The GIANT Reign is NOT that kind of bike. Still, it's a lot of fun!
Good poppy suspension
A lot of fun with an active riding style
Its length adds stability in steep terrain
Suspension reaches its limit on rough tracks
Requires an active riding style
Sizing excludes a lot of riders
