Reign E+ 2022

Does anyone have info regarding 750wh replacement batteries ?

Only the 625wh battery is currently listed on Giant's website.

Hi all

Do you think a M or a S size will be more suited for 1,70m tall rider? I’ve tried a M in a shop and seemed to be OK and comfortable for me, but due to the steep seat tube and long chainstays, I’m a bit unsure if it will be too long in the trails.

thanks

Cheers!

Thanks for the review @Rob Rides EMTB - this is what ive been waiting for

May be giving my local dealer a ring in the morning

It was only long for those of us with our fingers hovering on the button! But as you said, Christmas and poor weather probably slowed down this video's delivery. As your channel grows though sometimes it's better not to let 'great' be the enemy of 'good', especially with a content hungry audience.

 

[jeanmarc]

Great video and review as always. Going to watch daily until the end of winter…
Thanks Rob!

 

[zorro77]

What a nice review !!! Can you tell us your suspension settings?

 

[Zimmerframe]

We're so lucky you and @TheBikePilot haven't turned your hands to Porn video's.

It would destroy the industry.

20 seconds in, everyone would drop their sausage and just be going "wow, what an angle, look at that, that's cool, check out the light"

 

[Implor]

Did you ever get around to connect the bike to a bike computer?

 

[Banksay]

I've not installed the app yet as I've been wary of all the problems people have had, so quick question...is power mode set to full as default?

 

[jeanmarc]

Defaults settings. The app works fine on iPhone.

@Rob Rides EMTB great review! I've done ~800ks on mine, and your review feels on point to me. Thanks agian!

I havn't had any problem with the app lately, I did early on (playing with LED brightness setting broke the bike for 48hrs), but now I use it regularly to check exact charge levels when i don't have my garmin connected. its seems fine, I mean kinda crap, but fine.

Did you try to change the LED brightness? Or update the bike's firmware? I'm still petrified to do it after 2 times the bike was out for more than 24h .

 

[Rob Rides EMTB]

I updated the bike firmware yesterday. No issues.

Those shots were breath taking rob!
So clear and crisp and editing to match!
A hr2 has no place on the rear of an ebike imo
Thank you for a great vid

Connected the app and nothing seemed to self destruct

How do you check the firmware? Does it just automatically prompt you if newer software is available rather than an option to manually check for updates?

yeah it prompts you, from memory, it won't let you continue to use the app until you complete the update.

 

[Dale_Calgary]

Rob that was a really great review and wonderful production.

You put some real effort into that one

 

[M AP]

I updated the bike firmware yesterday. No issues.

Updated the firmware twice already with no issues.

Great review Rob!
Would have loved to hear some battery range comparison to likes of Bosch Gen4 with same battery capacity (for example Trek Rail).

its most likely a pain to do correctly. Same tires, same pressure, similar suspension setup and so on.

To do good you would need to put it on a trainer. A rig to spin the pedals and see how long it last in different modes.

Torque is proportional to current. So if you have a low rpm with max torque it will most likely drain you battery quicker but you may have a much more pleasant motor to use.

Thank you Rob, excellent review as usual!
I'm using a 2022 Reign+ 2 since last December and you confirmed every my feelings and opinion about this dream bike! Unfortunately my poor English didn't allow me to understand you when talking about the possibility to replace the 625 Wh battery with the more capable 750 Wh model: is this possibile? I'm addicted with high level assistances, so this replacement could improve the range of my rides.
Thank you again!

It's possible. You can change to 750Wh battery.
