Just when riders are itching for snow to melt (or not!) so they can get on the trails, along comes the February issue of Mountain Bike Action, with a cover photo of the 2011 Giant Reign 0. Inside, there’s another great full page photo and two more pages devoted to a full-tilt test of the Maestro-suspension all-mountain machine.
A few pithy quotes show how much the editor liked the ride:
“The supple and balanced suspension keeps the Reign 0 on rails through high-speed corners. With meaty Nevegal tires and 6 inches of suspension, the hardest part about cornering aboard the Reign is to convince yourself you’re not going too fast to maintain traction, because it smoothes the trail so well.”
There’s also this: “…it mows down rocks, ruts and roots with very balanced and active suspension. Need to charge a rutted, unfamiliar section of trail? No problem. Does the trail require some agile bike handling through rock gardens? Done. The Reign answers the call of the most technical trails.”
Perhaps the most important comment from the review is the final one: “BUYING ADVICE: Giant’s latest rendition of the Reign 0 is one impressive machine. It climbs like a cross-country bike, yet has supple suspension that eats up technical terrain at will. From head-to-toe, the Reign 0 is spec’d with all-day, physically challenging rides in mind. It delivers in both performance and price.”
