    Nick your 45 that’s a young kid 🤣. I’m on my second ebike 2021 trek rail 5 highly modified and I’m 61 and only getting started . You would not believe what us old guys can do. I come from motocross and road racing (crotch rocket)background so like you I ware a lot of protection. Full face helmet all the time. Keep shredding guys. Great video.

    I had the 2020 E Reign and updated to the 2022 Reign E+2, WOW what a bike. I'm an intermediate older rider and felt so confident on the bike I raced for the first time ever in the CES (California Enduro E Series) and loved it. I turned it into a more trails bike after the season with different wheels and a different suspension set up and its been great on 30+ mi rides. I have the new 800 W battery and have gone 45mi with 5500' elevation with battery left over.

    The Reign is such a sick bike, I've done 1500kms so far and loving it. I have had a couple of issues thou, my frame cracked which Giant replaced within a week with the E+0 green frame and motor has started making a grinding noise which is getting sorted under warranty atm. As the price of bikes keeps going up Giant is one of the best bang for buck manufacturers.

      @@EMTBOllie ok I’m looking at getting my first e bike , the 2024 model e+1 in particular is selling at a great price . I suspect it’s the same frame as last year with a few spec changes.
      The reach stack measurements on the large are almost identical to my nukeproof mega l so I know it will be a great fit .
      But I’m just not sure whether it’s now a bit dated and newer bikes coming onto the market will be better ?

    We go our hands on an E+0 fall last year. Only had 1 day on it myself at a bike park. It was a lovely bike and the front was super planted. The weight and the motor put us off buying one to race but for fun I would buy one. Great value for money. The spec on the E+0 is really good for the price! 👍

    I could not get a Reign E+0 so I bought a +2, got the 800 battery as an extra, upgraded it to Shimano XTR brakes, Shimano Link Glide drivetrain and Fox forks and shock on it. Got a better paint job in my opinion. Great bike.

    Brakes are always an interesting topic... I also went from XT to RSC and I felt the Sram brakes made me more confident and faster. I just love the modulation and the power feels pretty good. My Meta Power comes with 220mm rotors and it's just sweeeeet!

      It cracked all the way around, not to sure if it was paint or filler but kudos to Giant replaced the frame within 5 days, the guys at the shop told me the E+0 frame is different somehow it looks like Giant have beefed up the area. Maybe it was a bad batch but to replace it with that specific frame tells me Giant knows something was wrong and have changed the process.

    I’m really curious to know how much Sam Waze if the Ozzie Punter Weighs 100kg. For me at 185 pounds I realize my friends that are 160lbs have a large advantage over me climbing and battery life. He definitely looks like he’s carrying at least 20 to 30 pounds more than Sam so if that bike will keep up I am very impressed
