Yes I recommended one to my mate as best bang for buck & now a few of his mates have put orders down. $9K for E2 with zebs & X2. I'd def be looking at one.

Seconded. As far as I can tell there's no reviews of this motor available anywhere.

Today I realized that the level of mode 3, 4 and 5 where not set to the max in the app. Don't know if this happens at the LBS or if this the default from the Fab, but anyway, this explains why the Smart Assist / Auto mode did feel more powerful. Second, it tells us that there is no correlation between the level of the individual assist modes and the auto mode.
If anyone from GIANT reads this - please add the ability to control the power of the Smart Assist mode. Would also love to get profiles like on Shimano System to switch between cruising/power safe and Trail/Attack mode easily.

New page, same question lol!
No mate, giant UK won’t even confirm the 2022 reign e exists let alone take our money?! Some have reported end November for more info, but I Can’t see it, our old friends the EU need to laugh and tease us a little longer yet before they let some through

Nice Mate, is it the "0" with the 750Watt battery?

I'm using protective film from Amzn for Cars as yard ware to wrap the entire bike.
It's amlost invisible and the little sticker is on top of it ;-) Can't remember where I have got this.
I have spoken direct with Giant UK and they don’t know pricing, exact specifications of models (e.g some markets the top two models have the 750 battery and some only the top spec) or when they will be available.
i am going to chase them today to see if any update since last week
Ok it looks like they are imminent over next few weeks but in limited numbers.
believe + 0 will be £7500 with 750 battery and +1 6300 with 625 battery.
Giant Guildford have a Medium +0 coming in later this week/ early next ahead of other bikes.
apparently no big boat load arriving rather drips and drabs

Hmmmm, prices a bit fruitier than I expected. Shame the +1 is 625 kwh, as that could have been an option. So prob a wait for the Haibike Nduro7 - as I'm a Yam engine fan!

I called Guildford and hopefully the inbound E+0 medium is reserved with my name on it!
Cheers for the heads up bud. you are right as well, call or email a few of the giant shops and some do have allocation, a friendly bunch they are too
£7500 for that spec is pretty amazing in todays market.
- Fox 38 Factory
- Fox X2 Factory
- 750Wh battery
- Carbon rims
- SRAM X01 drivetrain
- Code RSC Brakes
- New Yamaha PWX-3 motor
- Neat integration
In fact this could well be the best bang for buck Ebike out there by far! I'm very very interested in this one and really want it to hurry up!

Yesterday I had to use Walk Assist Mode to get to the Summit.
It feels not as powerful as I am used to from PWX and PWX2, but works smoothly, more natural, and the rear wheel did not wash out anymore. Still enough Power even in steep Terrain, and very predictable. Nice improvent, but I would like to control the power of the walk mode via the app

Hopefully mine should arrive soon, can’t wait! I read the specs show code RSC brakes and X01 drivetrain but why do they look like XT’s in all pics? @trailaddict can you confirm what brakes and gearing yours has and what stem length is fitted also please? Cheers

These are the stock BL-M8100 XT Levers but paired with Magura MT7 piston and 220mm MDR-P Rotor on the front
I have detected the same thing in the first two exits and after washing the bike, it has surprised me, I think that this cover should go with some type of rubber gasket to prevent water from entering
Nice brake choice! These big bikes are hard to slow down.These are the stock BL-M8100 XT Levers but paired with Magura MT7 piston and 220mm MDR-P Rotor on the front
New here, just bought a 2022 Giant Reign E+2 XL...first eMTB
I was riding a 2021 Giant Reign Advanced Pro 29 2 XL all summer and decided to make the jump to the ebike version when I saw that an E+2 XL size was available at my bike shop. Lots of Reign E+ available here in Quebec, but all sizes S/M/L.
The geo and mullet setup on that bike make the bike more playful and agile vs. my regular Reign...oh boy I had a big smile my first time down and jumps with the bike, couldn't believe how an ebike could be that agile.
Suspensions are perfectly tuned and so plush, small bump compliance is really good despite having lower end Zeb Select & DPX2 Performance. The bike is also dead silent when going down, big plus versus these EP8 rattling all over the place.
Only issue right now is that my GX rear derailleur is creaking badly under load...my regular Reign was doing the exact same thing with an NX rear derailleur, strange.

I just finished a ride on auto mode, managed to go 25.6 km with 910 m of climbing. By the end the battery was at its lowest I’ve seen so far, it turned orange for a bit then kicked me out of auto and into the lowest power mode. Just after that the orange battery light started blinking, I didn’t manage to get it to completely turn off, but I assume it was about to. At one point while climbing I was getting a different whine out of the motor that I haven’t heard before, not sure if it was a bad thing or not.
25km range is kind of really weak, no ?
Just bought the same bike, makes me nervous that I won't be able to ride as much as I was thinking!
yesterday I did 36 kilometers between the first two modes and I only spent two stripes
the general engine noise is quieter than the pw-2, they have improved it.
If I feel a noise when I stop pedaling suddenly, for 1 or 2 seconds until the motor stops, as if it disengages, I don't know if I explain myself well, for someone else the same thing happens
It is beautiful, I have the same one, there is a detail in the box where it says the REIGN E model, as it is also dark, it is hardly appreciated
