How has your bike held up since making this? This is arguable the most I’ve seen someone put this bike through. Great video and thanks
Aeroe bikepack 🤩🤩
I looked at it last time I was there. I'll stick to grade 4 and the occasional grade 5, thank you very much!
Great video, looks like a sick adventure!
sorry if i missed it but just curious to where are you going?
I’ll be heading to Indonesia
Sick man, Enjoy
Very impressive effort and great scenery. I was feeling your pain and wishing at the very least you had some drop bars on that beast. 😆
Great adventure mate
Great videos & reviews! How have your shocks been holding out? I’m currently running a Super Deluxe & a Pike on my bike (2017 Remedy), just wondering how the Zebb & Deluxe would compare if I were to ride one of these Advanced 2’s.
Thanks! The fork and shock have been great but I have been planning to upgrade suspension now that its been over a year and due for serving anyway. I am looking to upgrade to options that have more fine tuning ability as I think that's all this bike is missing currently.
bro you need to race the downhill again i loved those other videos of the crankworx dh
Hoping to get into more downhill racing very soon!
What is the name and brand of mounting you put on the back wheel?
It is the Spider Rear Rack made by Aeroe
I really liked this video since I've started to gain an interest in bike packing and you've showed us what we could do with a mountain bike, and I hope you're channel grows 🤛
How’s the legs after that ride mate
Definitely feeling it now!
I bet I rode the new grade 5 today u will love it
I've had nothing but problems with mine.
Really???? i wanna get one
Nice Video, Just bought myself the reign frameset, just wondering where you got the flip chip parts for high and low from because my reign didn't come with them
Nice! You'll love the frame! The flip chip parts was just in a box of extras from when I purchased this bike from my local bike shop. Best to reach out to Giant about getting them.
Great to know. I just bought a reign 2 and will be putting the chip in high as i will be doing climbing frequently. Thanks for the insight!
Thanks for the Video ❤
Cheers Andy!
Great vid
Thank you!
Nice 👍 you would make a great tour guide. Great riding and commentary 🎉
Good work on those big drops in the top section. I haven't hit that last double drop over the tree root yet. There's also a nice trail to the left (on hill road) of where you started that second section, but headed more towards Ma Te Wa, just before the corner. Gotta walk up onto the side mound to see the entry. It's really good, loamy S-bends, some Tech drops and step chutes. Comes out just before that step-down you guys rode (as it heads into the open), then into the bottom of the DH.
Looking good! Send it!
Great quality video. Great commentary/explanations of tracks and features. Keep them coming. Cheers.
Great quality video. Cheers.
Look cool man
🤘
Did this today one of those drops is easy 10 meters
So true I think the dude didn’t do it tho 😢
Great review I’m looking at this bike. It’s either a Hardtail or full suspension for my first bike, it’s a hard decision between something like this or a trek Roscoe 8 or 9
how tall are you>?
170cm
Are you happy with your medium, or do you wish you have gotten the bike in small size? I'm 172 cm and considering between small and medium Reign.
GReat video! to help understand how the flip chip works and how it can be changed. Definitely valuable. I just bought a Trance 1 and this will help give me a head start on getting used to the flip chip.
Got T7 now. ur video really confident me to the bike
Hi.. Love your vids😊 How would you compare the T7 vs the alpine trail 7?
I thought that lad in the grey was Thor at first. The camera angle had him at 3 meters high lmao
I have been thinking about getting this bike. I think I am going to make my purchase!
Hi, how much does it weight?
Just under 15kg
I guess the high position would be only if you want to make it mullet. I love the looks of that reign, I had the 2020, and I'd like to know how better is this one.
You'll definitely notice a difference between high and low. It's a welcomed adjustment to suit people's preferences. More brands should add adjustable chainstay lengths too via dropouts. So easy to design and makes a huge difference to ride feel
The adjustable drop outs arnt easy to design... You need to take into account: Chain length Hanger shock tune Suspension leverage changes alot. with the suspension change comes Rider weight balance aswell. It's not easy and doesnt often work as intended. If you want long CS, buy a bike with long CS.
Flip chip is a big waste just a marketing ploy to get people to believe the hype
100% agree
So you are saying Stefan here, is making his comments up to support Giant? I just bought a Trance X 1, so I guess I'll find out if it makes a difference.
@@Vince-lq3ve Trans X is a nice bike.
just bought a trance X1 about 10 days ago and the low setting was about to clap my cranks on everything while climbing... switched to hi position and it solved that issue and definitely helped climbs. it's false marketing ploys like this that make this bike adjustable for terrain 😂
believe what hype? You mean adjusting a bikes leverage curve?
Cool 👌
Well done and very beautiful trails there!!, I have the same bike 2months like you, yes its sick ,pedals excellent and get so fast speed on down, hope you enjoy it. The rear shock is not good btw, i installed my dvo jade X back and its completely other bike,also zeb charger 3 is on the way.Stock brakes are ok but i ll put SLX rear for better and sure stop. Unfortunatelly i have a paint crack or real crack on seat tube(after 4 rides) and have already claimed warranty via retailer. Giant has execellent bikes but if claim does not go good i ll never buy again and never recommend a friend buy too.After a lot of dig found that on trustpilot the reviews are the worst.....hope they fix it because its a shame to loose customers and make them unhappy.
I'm grateful that this vid popped up at this time
Seeing you kill a dh course makes me want this.
Is that trail bike not enduro bike?
What was that a trail mtb bike or enduro mtb bike?
Polygon call it a trail bike since it as 150mm front travel and 140mm rear travel. However I think it is a capable enduro bike if you set the bike up right.
Sick riding. Curious as to why the rear shock has been down graded? That’s the same as what’s on my Reign 2
It's an advanced pro 2. Mine came with "only" a deluxe select too. Seeing how Stephan is absolutely gunning these trails with the small shock (respect mate!), I almost regret swapping it out for a trusty Fox float x2 🙈 Nevertheless, i personally will keep the Zeb and upgrade the shock and the spring to a charger 3. The build has a couple of grams to lose by swapping the cheap cassette and the deore brakes by something lighter. Let's see if that's really needed.
I did not know made an advanced pro 2. The more you know…. I just bought a DPX2. The select is good on the Reign, but it lacks a bit on the small bump sensitivity
2.5 years with a T7 and still going 🤙
what size wheels
maybe you need siskiu D7 . more light & aggressive series for xc trail
Wrong bike for the job!
Nice ride
Me
I just cleared the whole line for the first time today
This looks like an xc race. And youre riding a enduro bike
Super dope
