Glory 1
Overview
THERE’S NO FAKING IT ON PUNISHING WORLD CUP DH COURSES. NO EASY LINES, NOWHERE TO HIDE. THAT’S WHY GIANT PROS CHARGE IT WITH GLORY.
The harder the course, the better says two time U.S. DH Champ Duncan Riffle. Same goes for his bike, the Giant Glory. With 8 inches of fully active Maestro Suspension, mated to a lightweight, super strong ALUXX SL via a co-pivot shock mount. It’s everything Duncan and you need to boost your confidence in the most extreme DH conditions.

| Weight | How much does this bike weigh? It’s a common question, and rightly so. But the truth is, there are no industry standards for claiming bike weights—and this leads to a lot of misinformation. Variances exist based on size, frame material, finish and hardware. And as bikes get lighter, these differences become more critical. At Giant, we believe the only way to truly know the weight of any particular bike is to find out for yourself at your local retailer. |
