I can’t wait to see the Reign X redesign and the weights on both.

You can see the 09 Giant’s bellow, I’m pretty sure the only new FS bike is the Anthem X, the new Glory and Reign X won’t be until 2010.

Looks like a carbon copy of DW Link and Sunday bike. Potential lawsuit?

the length of linkages from the sunday to the glory are what make the difference,
while both pivots on a DW link and maestro move in the same direction (as opposed to VPP) the lower link on the maestro is a lot longer than the DW and end up having different axle paths.
it looks like the only changes in the suspension from current glory to this model (other than tweaking and ratios and math) is the change in shock position to have the same mount for the shock and linkage (the same change that giant has seen on their trail bikes this year.)

It looks really similiar to the AC they used to make. Obviously better now, but wow, they look a lot alike. Also, the seat could be a “stand” seat, used only for working on the bike. At least I hope so
