Giant Reign E+1 2022 - Review and Ride!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- I've wanted an E-Bike for some time now, and the Giant Reign E+1 2022 ticks all the boxes for many reasons. Although this bike is by no means cheap, compared to other brands the value for money and the spec you get is second to none. This particular bike comes in at £6299 and I purchased it from Solent Cycles in Fareham. Speak with a chap called Mike and he'll sort you out with ease.

The Giant Reign E+1 2022 comes with Fox 38 performance Elites up front rocking 170mm of travel, at the rear 160mm Fox X2 performance elite, XT group set and a 170mm dropper on the XL model. As standard you'll get the 625wh battery which will last for most EPIC adventures if used correctly in the various power modes.
The PWX-3 motor comes with a 2 year warranty while the frame is covered for life with the original owner. I don't think you can go wrong with that at all. Knowing the money you've spent gives you good package overall.
I'm still massively stocked on this bike, and although its taken me forever to purchase one I'm glad I waited for the right bike. This like I say ticks all the boxes, if you ride it just once you'll understand why!.
Enjoy

Good job with this video. This and many more reviews of the Reign E+ convinced me to buy one. I got a fantastic deal. $5,300 + taxes=Total $6,095 Canadian. I love this bike. I have to disagree with one topic of your assessment which is using it without power. Turned off.
If you ride for a while on it and then turn it off you will of course feel that you are struggling and had you simply got off the bike and used an acoustic Reign, you would feel the same way.
It's all relative and what your body and mind get used to. I drove my E+ for 3 weeks about 4 times a week and one day my daughter came to visit and wanted to go biking so I took my acoustic Reign. I actually checked the wheels to see if the brakes were dragging. But everything was fine. It's amazing what you get accustomed to.
I went out with friends with my E+ yesterday but they had acoustic bikes and I kept the power off and it was fine. It's a much heavier bike but there is no restriction in pedaling.
But when you turn the power on again it feels like a new bike all over again.
I have the 2023 and in the Giant App, you can change the Torque and Launch as well as Support Level which is cool if you bike with someone who only has 55NM Torque you can matchit.
Again good job on the video and I think Giant is a good bang for your buck.
I got the 2+, it's amazing. I got one for the same reason as you, cause i wanted one. Time is limited, i go out on my bike to have fun (the fitness is just a bonus), always puts a smile on my face. On my normal bike i'd get a few runs in at the local place i ride, on this i can get so much more done.
Hi buddy, did yours came with the Zeb fork, if so do you know if comes with bottomless tokens?
Thanks
@@djpvg it comes with 3 tokens
Great to see you back and was only a matter of time!! Glad to see you enjoying it - let the upgrades begin !! 😂👍
🤣🤣 cheers Shaun
Had my 0+ for a few months now and coming from a specialized kenevo 2018 it's a totall different bike and I've done some 25-30 mile rides with about 2000ft of climbing and it's only used a little over 40% battery (750wh) and I'm about 18 and a half stone bloody love it..also great video.. 🤘
This is great. Thanks buddy. Done a few more rides since this and I love it. Little rattle noise coming from the front end I'm trying to isolate. Think it's the wheel. Just changed to my carbon one to test is next ride. Enjoy the shred bud
@@MikesMTBAdventures try some extra cable clips on the that quieted down as well as the original dropper seat clamp the one that clamps the seat was a bit noisy but I wanted a bigger drop so I put a One Up components 210mm dropper on(size large frame) and no more creaking from that..
@@MikesMTBAdventures sorry I got the clips from chain reaction their LifeLine ones.. 🤘
Been subscribed to your channel for along time great content always
I've ordered the E,+0 got a three week wait it's my first ebike Iam 55 been mountain biking for 17 years now currently own a trek remedy can't wait to get a motor to get me uphill
Hey Steve. Thanks for the nice comment. You'll absolutely love the ebike. it's game changing literally. For once you'll enjoy the uphills multiple times 👍👍
Did you buy the 2022 model? Do you know whether there are important differences between the 2022 and the later models, eg 2023 and 2024 (apart from the fact that they come with 800 wh battery).
Good to see you back Mike, great looking bike! They're so much fun aren't they, I've not long got my Marin E2 and it's just amazing. The poor Stanton gives me a sad look every time I open the shed 😂😔
Didn't realise you had one. Top man
had mine for a few months. it's awesome. as an all around, yet descent oriented bike, it's hard to beat. geometry is spot on, the suspension firepower is incredible. it can be set up any way you want. as you said, low flip chip is close to useless, the bike is very low and slack as it is.
Great video! Learnt more about this bike than I did from my local shop. Carnt wait for mine to arrive next week.
Welcome back Mike! Great review of the Giant.
Looking forward to getting an ebike shred with you and Ads when I’m back over QECP way end of Apr. We’ll have to tow Richie……!
Thanks Fletch. Looking forward to the shred as we never managed to squeeze it in before I went last time. See you soon 🤟
Those who speak negative have had either a bad experience or simply haven’t tried one .. Local legend at the trails I use gave me a shot off his vitus e sommet .. Call me sad I need one and Love these bikes enjoyed the video 👍
Thanks Dale. I prefer these now also 👌
Nice to have you back mate! Any chance of a video at stoughton? Would like to see how this machine handles that place👍🏻
I'll be going soon for sure. Thanks buddy
Hi Mike great review and nice to see you loving the bike so much. The bike is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Some websites say am a large some say I’m an extra large. How tall are you and what made you go for the XL ?
I am just over 6 foot but have Long torso and arms which is more my worry.
I'm 6.2 and the xl works well. The guide did recommend large but I'm glad I didn't.
I've ordered the 0+3 £4999. I'll build up the spec as and when I can afford it.
Great review. 👍
This is excellent news.....enjoy it buddy
Where did you buy it from Paul out of interest?
Rutland Cycles in Northampton.
Great review. Seriously thinking about buying one of these. They look like an excellent bike.
Just wondering what size you have?
I am 5’11 and normally a large but giant state I am a medium.
It said large for me but I got the XL
I have just filmed a review of exactly the same bike. Was a good fun bike. Video out in a few weeks.
Good timing for me then 🤣 I love this bike for sure. Not perfect but bloody close.
Hi Mike, great video as always.. Does the flip chip position comes in low setting as standard?
I believe it does buddy yes. Literally 5 mins to change that around
@@MikesMTBAdventures thanks Mike, I sometimes used to switch the mino link position on my trek remedy 8 which is sold now and as you rightly mention it’s a quick job :)
I just received my new 2022 Giant reign e + 2 yesterday on the post and really looking forward to unpack it when I get home by the weekend. I do ride a lot at QECP and head down as well as it’s pretty close to me ;) hopefully see you around there one day :)
@@djpvg happy to meet buddy.sg on Facebook, Mike JP
I might wait and see what 2023 models bring 🧐🧐😉
Nice review dude 👍
I am going to buy this bike soon. What size did you ride. I am 175 cm tall . Please recommend a size for me.
XL in this edit buddy
May I know your height please
188 bud
29er in the rear ?
Hi, great review. Helped me lot in my decision to settle for this ebike. Do you think it is possible to put a 29er in the rear ? Having the intention to try it out in the next weeks.
No room buddy. Mullet through and through
Thank you the quick answer 👍
@@MikesMTBAdventures
Hi Mike, what are your thoughts on putting a 2.8 tire Schwalbe Big Betty in the rear to raise the BB. I had a few impacts while overrolling logs. Do you think the 2.8 tire will fit on the rear oem rim with 30mm internal width ? Greetings - Igor
Swapped the rear tire to a 2.8 and it is way better now with the BB clearence rolling over logs etc.
@@deneigahey mate what 2.8 did you put on? Did you ever measure the BB height, mine is terrible even in high, 327mm
Great review, fully agree about the flip chip - low is just too low for pedal strikes. Was thinking about running shorter crank arms to see if it’s any better.
Did you try shorter cranks?
Yes, Hope 155mm. A great improvement and hardly any strikes now.
@@buckaroony8377
Nice, thanks👌🏽
Is she fitted with resin pads Mike?
May be worth swapping out for metal to handle what you're throwing at it.
Good point. I'll check. Thanks
@@MikesMTBAdventures get the finned ones lol
awesome review, esp as I've just reserved one!!!
Bike looks awesome bud
Hi, does anyone else find the pedal clearance an issue? Only I can’t say I’m happy with mine. It’s catches me out at times on sideburns rather it be on a straight or up hill! I’ve set up the bike but yeah any feedback much appreciated.
Better in hi and I'm used to it now
wonderful video
What finish did you chose on your invis ?
Gloss all the way buddy for all models
How does it feel on tight corners?
Absolutely solid once you get used to it pal
Mine large reign e+1 came with a 150mm dropper 😭
Someone know where I can order that Reign e+ 1 750WH in Germany or Austria? They don’t made for Switzerland…
20 miles and 3000 ft of elevation is not that impressive. I would expect more given Giant's specs. For instance, I rented a Trek Rail 7, that did 32 miles with 3200ft of climbing on a battery with the climbs in the tour mode and the descents/flat areas in Eco. I'm considering the Reign but would want at least 35 miles range on around 3000+ feet of climbing.
Buddy it was a statement of what I've done so far. Not what the bike can do. It's more capable than my numbers when used correctly.
All depends on weight of rider too
Sadly my giant reign E+2 motor stopped working after 1.5k miles of riding in 6 months. Waiting for giant to warranty my motor😩.
motor overheated and seized.😥
Can’t recommend giant or yamaha motor. Go for shimano or bosch motor. More reliable.
May be unlucky buddy
The motor noise at low cadence is fairly good, ruclips.net/video/lysZLZ5iknE/видео.html . However on high cadence its an almost unbearable high pitched whine! ruclips.net/video/KZ6QNxeexOE/видео.html . And yes I tested with different grades of road and power assist levels, noise mostly depends on how fast you pedal (cadence).
Möchte ich auch haben
Subtitulos en español pliss🙏😅
It's a bike.....
Thanks 👍
Very intelligent it's a bike
