Description
Our downhill rocket with a carbon frame and World Championship experience is back, with a revised 200 mm Maestro rear end and plenty of options for adjusting geometry, rider position and rear wheel size. Completely new, in development for years and soon to be found on all race podiums.
RACE-READY SUSPENSION
The new Maestro rear-end system, developed over several seasons in collaboration with GIANT engineers and pro athletes for World Cup racing, provides 200 mm of active suspension travel for race speed. The shock is paired with a fork with 203 mm of travel*, which delivers outstanding confidence and control on the most extreme DH race tracks and trails. * not compatible with RockShox BoXXer Ultimate or BoXXer Select (2023 or earlier)
Perfectly adjustable
Three Flip Chips in total provide unprecedented adjustability. With the three-position Maestro Flip Chip, you can adapt the frame geometry to your riding style and the terrain. A new headset Flip Chip adjusts reach so you can easily reach your preferred position. And with the Flip Chip on the chainstay, wheelbase and chainstays can be adjusted.
Rear wheel options
You can choose between a 29-inch and a 27.5-inch rear wheel. All models come with a mullet setup, which is preferred by many race riders. The smaller rear wheel diameter gives a lively, agile ride feel. If you prefer the overrun behaviour and stability of two 29-inch wheels, you get this by buying and fitting a larger wheel/tyre.
The new Glory Advanced has been completely redesigned from the ground up and features a lightweight, super-strong carbon frame, 200 mm Maestro suspension at the rear (with a 203 mm fork) and multiple Flip Chips for setting geometry, rear wheel size, fit and positioning. The standard setup is a mullet wheel configuration with a 29-inch front wheel and a 27.5-inch rear wheel, offering the perfect balance of overrun behaviour and manoeuvrability. Riders also have the option to switch to a 29-inch rear wheel with a simple Flip Chip on the rear dropout. The legend is back!
