2011 glory dh1
- Thread starter stringbean
- Start date
I prefer the 00 - no more stupid giant blue color. The 01 in this year looks better because it has none of that silly company theme.
Also - the new rs names are seriously stupid. Ive checked quite a few times which is which and still dont recognise the fork when they use their R2D2 names. Who the hell came up with the idea - its beyond stupid - much harder to see the differance between the forks. Well unless that was their goal..

i like the looks and specs of both.
Yes! I'm the first to say it! Holy headangle batman!
The same bike except the maxxis tires, DT rims, giant name brand bars and stem. I like the tires upgrade. The DT rims, Giant bars and stem not so much.
You start with TCR Advanced SL 0

Although the downgrade of bars/stem on the 2011, this isnt a huge issue as they're the first thing most people would change anyway. Of more concern I would think is the vulnerable seatpost (for DH applications at least) and rims.
Also, not a fan of the DH1 paint scheme, but the DH0 looks great

The giant seatposts are fine. Ive been using giant connect sl (I think its this model) since april and after many crashes and tire rub its still fine.Although the downgrade of bars/stem on the 2011, this isnt a huge issue as they're the first thing most people would change anyway.

I like the 00 for 2011, the 01 not so much. I prefer the black and red of the 2010
I would pay to see this. Is it on PPV? I think the bikes will win. Corporate seems like its filled with a bunch of idiots.
still annoyed by the cablerouting UNDER the downtube... wtf?
I doubt the geo changed on the Glory but the chart may not be correct... the Reign is new this year and it says 67.5 but the geo chart says 68, which it was last year.
Ohhhh man, don't get me started on Giant's geo charts. Never correct and led me into buying a bike too small for me (seat tube 1 inch shorter than claimed, top tube 1/2 inch shorter than claimed). A$$holes.
Company has gotten so damn big, they forgot they sell bicycles.
