The Intrique LT is billed as an enduro race bike, but it's more versatile than that designation suggests.
Finds traction easily on the climbs and the descents
Composed on rough terrain
Lightweight build
Not the most supportive suspension platform
You'll need to make a couple spec changes to make it an enduro race rig
XS/S doesn't fit a normal waterbottle

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 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

From the brand that continues to lead the way in women’s mountain biking we were excited to get our hands on their latest model for an exclusive in-depth review and it certainly hasn’t disappointed! The all new Intrigue Advanced Pro 29 has been designed as a fast rolling trail bike which can eat up long climbs and still dominate rough descents. Reviewer // Jackie Coulson Photos // Dominic Hook It’s a bike which debuts several new tech features for Liv, […]
