Giant Reign 1 (2024) in Kenya
Elevate your enduro adventures with the Giant Reign 1 (2024), the ultimate upper mid-level full-suspension aluminum enduro bike for aggressive trail riders, enduro racers, technical descenders, and progressing intermediates seeking race-bred suspension, confidence-inspiring geometry, and high-end performance at unbeatable value. Built on a premium ALUXX SL-grade aluminum frame with Maestro suspension (160mm rear travel), flip-chip Maestro 3 for geometry/tire size adjustment (29″ or mullet compatible), integrated downtube storage, and progressive enduro geometry (slack 63.5° head angle, long reach), it features a RockShox ZEB 170mm fork (GRIP damper typical) for plush control on big hits and efficient pedaling. The smooth Shimano SLX 1×12-speed drivetrain delivers crisp, wide-range shifting for steep climbs and fast descents, while Shimano Deore hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful, modulated stopping in all conditions. Rolling on 29″ aluminum wheels (tubeless-ready) with grippy Maxxis tires for traction and speed on loose or rocky trails, plus a dropper post for on-the-fly adjustments, and weighing around 15–16.8kg (depending on size), it’s capable, durable, and built for real enduro terrain. More than just a full-sus bike—it’s your race-tested, upgrade-ready ripper for pushing limits on rocks, drops, and high-speed singletrack.
