Liv Intrigue LT Advanced Pro is a £12,500 trail bike dripping in the high-end, from Zipp wheels to Fox Live Valve - ride impressions herein
Very light for a 150mm travel MTB
Fast-rolling bike with a lively character
Adjustable geometry
Appropriate shock tune for the lighter rider with a good range of adjustment on offer
Adjustable-travel dropper seat post
Lifetime warranty
Geometry feels a little unbalanced (size small)
Insufficient chainstay protection
Over-priced
Frame storage door rattles when loaded with cage and bottle
Internal cable routing is not fully guided
Fox Live Valve offers no tangible benefit on this bike

The new Intrigue LT has 150mm of rear travel and can run either 29" or mixed wheels.

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

One of the only truly women's-specific frames out there, the Liv Intrigue combines big wheels and moderate travel into a compelling package.

Highest available build is GX
No XS frame
Short reach isn't for everyone

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…

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
