Description
The World Championship-backed Giant Glory Advanced full-composite frame mountain bike is back: a redesigned 200mm Maestro shock with a new 200mm crankset, and several ways to adjust geometry, seating position and rear wheel size. A new winner that has been in the making for years.
Race-ready suspension
The Giant Glory Advanced mountain bike is equipped with the new Maestro rear shock, developed by Giant engineers and top athletes over several World Cup seasons: 200mm of smooth shock travel for winning speed. The rear shock goes hand in hand with a 203mm fork, providing confidence and control for the most extreme down-hill trails.
Full adaptability
Three flip-chipsprovide unprecedented adjustability. Firstly, the three-position Maestro flip-chip allows you to adjust the frame geometry to suit your riding style and the terrain ahead. Secondly, the new headset flip-chip allows you to adjust the reach so you can choose the ideal seating position and finally, the rear flip-chip allows you to adjust the wheelbase and handling.
Rear wheel options
You can choose between a 29″ or 27.5″ rear wheel. All models come from the factory with a “mullet” setup: 29″ at the front and 27.5″ at the rear, preferred by many riders for its fast agile feel and rear-end mobility. For those who prefer speed and stability, there is the option to swap the rear wheel for a 29″.
