So you use the removal tool to get the cranks out of the pressfit (?), but to reassemble, I do not need to use a hammer or so to get back on? So I just screw it ;)?

Instead of using a hammer with the sockets, you can use bolts and washers to pull the bearings. This gives you a tool that finctions very similarly to the official tool.

Hi! So theres a difference between the two spacers between the rocker arm and the frame in the middle and the spacers for the rear of the rocker arm? And the 2 othersfor the top of the shock? Sorry for my bad english, i’ m french

Great video, just got a Giant Trance Advanced Pro 2 so this came in very handy. Although I have a creaking noise when I pedal hard and took the cranks out and regreased everything but still creaks.

love the video. just reaching the climax of the 2 nuts in a vice.. "Now All We Have To Do Is... i have the wrong wrench."

This is an older octalink bracket. Now Shimano offers a plastic shit only.

Thank you. I'm sick of having stupid play when braking. Oh and that's such a cool top cap 👍😊

Is there specific bolts order that we undo first when we disasemble the rear triangle while everything is on frame. I wanted to ask is there any tension while the shox is in place is any of the bolts gonna have tension on them, just so i dont damage threads while trying to undo them. Thank u

🫵🔝

Excellent video. Can you please tell me what king of grease you’re using to install bearings. Thanks

That is a great video - so well explained and easy to understand! Thank you.

thanks a lot! I enjoyed watching your video and following the clear instructions!

Xellent

Does it have the same parts as the reing sx 2022? I need to maintain the swingarm and I can't find the service manual.

Thanks so much.

thanks, i have a road bike rear wheel to do so hoping this helps

Would you happen to know the type of bolt for the trunnion mount? M10 x 1 x 17mm (18mm head) for example. Trying to track down one bolt without having to buy the entire rebuild kit.

those are nuts not bolts. cmon man!!😂

I have a 2015 Trance and this last spring (2023) I rebuilt the frame for the third time.Sooner or later it will be time to move on but that bike has been so great and the frame still works great since I take care of it. I think I still like the Maestro the best out of what’s out there and they can last a long time.

Thanks a bunch

Does the bearing kit work on all models or is it certain models

Great video! helped me out in my Anthem 2016 rebuilt process. Thanks for posting

This is an excellent video! Thank you so much for the info! Spare parts information on Giant bikes is not the best. I was checking the Dealers Only Tech Manual and not even there apears the exact bearing sizes for spares -only the kit codes. So, if I understood correctly, if I want to replace all the bearings in the rear shock/pivot area, I'll need to buy 6 pairs of bearings: - For the lower linkage, I'll need 2 pairs of 6802 (lower shock mount & front of the lower swing arm) and 1 pair of 6902 (back of the lower swing arm attaching to the chain stay). - For the rock arm, I'll need 1 pair of 63800 (upper shock mount) and 2 pairs of 6900 (back of the rock arm attaching to the seat stay & rock arm frame pivot). Btw, on other videos they recommend puting the berings in the freezer for 1-2 hours before installation. Apparently that way it's possible to install them without a bearing press!! Cheers!

This was exactly the video I was hoping to find, thank you!

I've been searching for a video like this. I have a 2018 Trance Advanced 2 that needs new headset bearings (upper and lower), it feels 'scratchy' when I spin the bars. Any advice on a good websites in the US where I can purchase a bearing replacement kit?

I'm such a curmudgeon - anyone else annoyed at the constant spinning of the parts?

Since when do we just drop bearings in loosely like that? I must be way out of touch I guess.

Thanks!!!😊

Where can I buy for a giant trance 2022 ?

Can someone tell me what size that axle nuts please?

With to much greese the balls push/ plow thru the greese instead of roiling around in it .

Those are called "nuts" there are no bolts.

Some hubs on some frames need a bit of preload looseness. Then, once tightened into the frame the looseness goes away. Without this preload looseness the bearings are just too tight. Would be nice to address this topic, but still a good video.

Excellent …The Best yet!!!

Richard sup dude thanks for the info very informative to the point “A” I really need that special tool to extract the cranks ✌🏽

😂😂😂 love the custom sound effects. The "zschoop" when you were putting the stem together had me laughing

Thanks for the video-- very informative. Could you tell me where you are able to find replacement parts for Giant Maestro Suspension- Bolts , etc.

Hey there, can you by any chance give me the measurements of those spacers at 11:00 right as you mention that its a common mistake to forget them :D I bought a giant trace 29 2020 used and it seems like the previous owner didnt install them when he changed the shock.

That Spacer called bleed block.😉

Hi I have just replaced the pivot bearings on my 2019 Reign 2 and there is a slight gap left between the chainstay links and where it joins the rocker arm on each side. The bearings look like they are seated all the way in and flush and there is a spacer between the bearing and rocker arm on both sides. The bolts are torqued up to the recommended 15nm too. Am I missing something? Any help appreciated

Great explanation and to the point, thanks very much. I am doing some "spring cleaning" on my mtb and decided to replace my bearings since the bike has been creaking some. Do you recommend specific brands and/or do you know the easiest way to shop for them?

My dropper post doesn’t go down it stays on top of the compression ring 😏 it’s like stuck inside the post 🙈

Hi, first of all thanks for the video! at minute 11:00 you show how to mount the upper part of the shock (trunnion part) and you show the two grey spacers to insert before connecting the shock. the problem i have is that when i add the spacers the shock won’t fit in, do you have any advice for this problem?

Thanks, Richard. I’m getting ready to install a pair of MT-BR520 calipers, and your video was clear, concise, and helpful. 👍

Both tapered washers fell out, and your video saved me...Thanks!

what is the magnet? I checked on Park tool's website and couldn't find it.

I need to know how the middle bolt comes out that runs thru the seatpost?? Seems like I can just tap it out but I've tried and doesn't seem to be budging 😢

Hello. May I ask for the details of the spacers on the lower shock mount? the wide black ones. my Goant reign x1 has missing spacer in the lower mount.😭 Thank you.

分かりやすかったです。 thank you!

Hi Richard, What tool is that for removal? I didn't do my homework and ordered the 8 keyed one for the outside that will of course only work on the 1 side.😐 The Park Tool finder isn't very clear and doesn't have a category for these older splined BB.
