Liv Intrigue Advanced Pro 1 2021 in review – a well-known bike thoroughly revised

Apr 2021 · Antonia Buckenlei

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?

Highs
  • Good-natured, easy handling

  • Efficient chassis

  • Good value for money

Lows
  • Twitchy at high speeds

  • Unnecessarily long seat tube limits freedom of movement downhill

  • Reasonably priced

  • Carbon Rims

  • Equally at home climbing or descending

Lows
  • Highest available build is GX

  • No XS frame

  • Short reach isn't for everyone

Liv Cycling Launches Intrigue 29

Aug 2020

While 29ers have proliferated to the point of seemingly threatening extinction to smaller wheel sizes, Liv Cycling has mostly waited and watched the category’s rise. In fact, the women’s-brand just released its first-ever 29er last year, the Pique XC bike. But Liv furthered its commitment to big wheels this week with the release of its…
