Hi everyone, now that Specialized has blocked Blevo I'm looking for an alternative to the Gen3 and this New Reign 2021 looks interesting. Online I found something, but not much on the top of the range E+ Mullet 29 + 27.5 new SyncDrive Pro² motor (powered by Yamaha), 85 Nm, EnergyPak Smart Integrated 740 WH, compatible with EnergyPak Plus etc ... still officially presented, but many sites have now published the characteristics, only the official photos are missing, but a photo has also been released.

If you are unhappy with BLEvo being blocked you will be furious when you get this Giant bike. Very few parameters are published via BLE and ANT, the fields that are published have incorrect data, the app needs an internet connection, and more. I have a 2021 trance and 2021 Levo. Even without BLEvo the Levo has much more info and a functional App. Giant had some computer geeks develop their app in their offices. This not only affects the ride info but also the ride control parameters. You can’t adjust engine settings unless you are on the internet.

i wonder if Rob is either busy with the holidays, or has had problems with his Reign. maybe not enough time to evaluate it yet and produce a video.

Also beginning to wonder about that. Probably just the holidays but hopefully get a full review even it has had problems.
 
Was talking to a pal who runs a bike shop albeit not a Giant agent. Had very little positive to say about Giant/Yamaha and their proprietary software. At least with Bosch and Shimano you can get them looked at almost anywhere.

It got a mention the other day in another video :

Rob's youtube awards - link to Reign

Unless it's just an "Introduction to" video, he seems to like to spend a few weeks riding them to get the full feel for things and not jump to conclusions in a couple of rides and it also takes time to get some decent footage - you might sometimes have to go out and shoot again if it's not come out how you wanted. It then takes a huge amount of time to edit a video together even for just a few minutes of eventual footage.

In all the years Yamaha have partnered with giant, no one has really had an issue with the motor. Yes the software should be better at this stage in the game but really, once it’s set up to the way you like it who gives a monkeys? Especially if you can integrate garmin to get more out of it etc. There are independent Giant shops country wide that will offer support when needed which is more than I got with my cube or Wiggle sourced Vitus previously.

What I really hoped they would have sorted by now is the water ingress issues. We haven’t really heard of any 2022’s with serious issues (yet) but there really isn’t any excuses for getting that wrong now. Fingers crossed

Fox 38 Harshness?

Back in the 90's and early 2000's I used to mostly run Fox forks and didn't particularly care for Rockshox. One day I bought an all-singing all-dancing 120mm fork with Fox's best damper at the time and no matter what I tried, the ride was harsh and travel I was getting out of the fork was...

For forks with Grip 2 cartridges and on X2 shocks, start with HSC/LSC wide open and go from there. Rebound and sag to spec.

Thanks, I read everything a few nights ago and today I tried.
90 kg Fork 110 psi all compressions open and only 1 token, rather open rebounds, now I'm happy! Same for X2!!! (230 psi no one token inside now)

I've had the bike for a month and a half and I'm very happy, I don't regret Specialized.
I was used to Blevo, it was a really important plus to decide to buy such an expensive bike ... I waited for the Lrevo Pro from April to August and it didn't arrive, in the meantime whoever received it discovered that Blevo didn't work with Gen3 . If I have to spend that much and have this very important feature less, then ... Canceled order and got this Giant :love:

I think I need to check how many tokens are inside my 38 as it’s way too harsh. I just assumed it came with no tokens in it like my 36 did.

I checked mine yesterday and it had 3 tokens in it! Removed one so hopefully better today. I will try with only one token as well.
 
You'd think there would be a "spec"/"build" sheet with each bike saying what's in it, either zip tied to the fork/shock/bike ..

This isn't Giant specific, generally everyone's the same.

Yes, you could argue, just open her up and have a look .. but not everyone wants to, or would like to know without having to investigate.

I alternate on the same ride between the Levo and the Trance. I own both so I ask guest rider to switch. The trance suspension with a zeb is really nice. Specialized seems smoother motor integration. Hard to figure out the winner. Maybe all of the feedback on the Giant app will get some attention. No doubt the Giant is a Big Bang for the buck. Wish they brought forward the data to the rider via the app.

Aún más ? Sé que se ve muy mal, pero la pantalla de Giant da mucha información útil y el reloj es mi navegador y en mi muñeca ya tengo dos rotos,
No me molesto en disfrutar de la ebike y disfrutar.

hi guys, I'm arguing with the Fox Factory 38 of E + 0 I can't find a good setup, my hands and arms hurt, it's hard, Do you have any advice on a good set-up? weight 90kg with backpack and clothing
I hope it doesn't have any problems, you don't even hear the clicks of the low speed compression when turning the knob
Click to expand...

I weigh about 76kg without gear probably 81kg with my gear, light tools and 3L water and run 90 psi.

HSC is 4 clicks open from fully closed;
LSC is 3 clicks from fully closed (lots of LSC);
HSR is 4 clicks open from fully closed; and
LSC is 6 clicks open from fully closed.

Haven't fine-tuned the rebound, but also haven't really felt the need to yet. I've slammed into a lot of rocks and even burped the front wheel on one occasion with the suspension feeling composed, so I'd say it's working pretty well?

Yeah it did, hadn't really thought about it until you pointed it out. Looking at the specs on the giant site it should come with a dpx2. Will have to ask the lbs to see why it's different. Haven't used fox shocks in the past so not sure on the differences between them.
Click to expand...

My XL came with a DPX2 in Canada, but it's really a question luck as some of the sizes have Float X equipped.

Honestly I'm not sure anyone would be able to tell the difference between the two shocks, but for heavy riders like me it's really frustrating to pump the DPX2 to 300psi before every ride when the Float X would be able to hold the same sag at 250-260psi+-

I still find the feeling of my DPX2 to be awesome, that rear suspension is plush and small bump sensitivity is on point.

Excited Much I am. This arrived today in the middle of my renovations. Looks like no renovating for me tomorrow. Gonna hit the trails.

Looks like a +2? Size? Looks like a float x shock? Waiting on my +2 in USA. Looks killer, gives us some feedback after a ride if you dont mind, thanks!!

Yeah, definitely a +2. That's a DPX2 shock, which is the same shock I have on my non-E Orbea Occam M10 and it's an outstanding shock.

Picking up my +1 tomorrow - WHOOP 🥳

+2 size Medium, DPX2. only been for a 20k easy trail ride with the wife this morning but can already say its much quieter with smoother power delivery than my Shimano E8000 powered Focus Jam2. Going for a bit of a tougher 40k ride in a couple of hours, so should learn a lot more about the bike on that one.
