True, but you hydro discs are not repairable trail side either....... this 'issue' with the reverb being hydro all the way to the lever is really a non issue. I know plenty of reverb owners....none of us have ever experienced this 'issue' people seem to rant on about. The advantage is that the...

Looks pretty damn scary to me!

Don't worry about what I look like........ worry about how hard my knuckles are.....nigs!

In bike years mine is well over age..... (has 26" wheels!) About 8 years off being classed a granny though...

Did you? Didn't think to try and step up to A grade this year then? Well, I have heard some people prefer riding grannies..... give the creaky old girl a break eh?

Nah? Sorry, I must have you confused with one of the many others that ride the interwinter on an Orange (Patriot?)...... Looks like the front row to me?

I suppose hydro disc brakes are an unnecessary gimmick too. Just use cable actuated hydro discs cos they're more reliable? The fact is, it's not all that much more complicated. All the droppers (of the big brands) are hydro activated internally. RS just continues the hydro to the lever...

Damn, thats pretty light for a Reign with SLX and stock wheelset.... Take it back to the shop and ask them to cut down that ridiculously long brake/shifter cable (if you can't do it yourself)....lazy on their part.

Yeah, my bad.......seems like sooo long ago!

Giant didn't do a 29er Trance in 2014.
