Summary
The Liv Intrigue trail bike is celebrated for its women's-specific design, offering a unique blend of agility, plush suspension, and modern geometry that caters to a wide range of riders. Its Maestro suspension platform is noted for being both active and predictable, providing excellent traction and control. While it excels in handling and comfort, some riders may find the reach short and the dropper post length limiting.

BIKE MagazineThe first thing you notice with this bike is how incredibly light it is.
BikeRadarLiv and GIANT really know how to tune their rear ends. That’s also the case with the Intrigue, which feels sensitive and supportive at the same time.

The Liv Intrigue is an evergreen in Liv’s portfolio. For the coming season, Giant's women-specific sister-brand have thoroughly revised the bike, which now has less travel but bigger 29" wheels. Does the concept also work for petite riders?
Good-natured, easy handling
Efficient chassis
Good value for money
Twitchy at high speeds
Unnecessarily long seat tube limits freedom of movement downhill

One of the only truly women's-specific frames out there, the Liv Intrigue combines big wheels and moderate travel into a compelling package.
Reasonably priced
Carbon Rims
Equally at home climbing or descending
Highest available build is GX
No XS frame
Short reach isn't for everyone

Solid all-rounder without any particular let-downs, and the low frame weight is great for light riders
Super-light frame makes it easy to manoeuvre
Plush rear suspension provides a smooth ride
Few spec compromises
Doesn’t carry speed as well as some
Prone to pedal bob
