2021 Giant Trance vs Giant Reign - All Mountain vs Enduro Bikes

in today's video, I walk you through a number of considerations when choosing a new mountain bike. I compare an all-mountain frame design with an enduro frame, and I use the specific measurements of the 2021 Giant Trance and 2021 Giant Reign bikes - bike designs which I have personally ridden. And I will walk you though the type of MTB trail characteristics (berms, steeps, drops, jumps, skinnies etc.) which will influence your bike selection. While I discuss the inherent tradeoffs of these two designs, the key thing to consider is that neither is "better". But, rather, depending upon how you will ride these bikes or whether you expect to significantly improve your riding skill, it is best to select a design that is more suitable for the style of riding you expect to do. I hope you find this video helpful!

My Bike:
2021 Giant Reign Advanced Pro 29
Enduro geometry (64.6 deg. head tube, 76.4 deg. seat tube)
29"wheels, 170/146mm of front/rear suspension travel

My Camera Setup: GoPro Hero 4 with EVO SS Wearable gimbal
(I use the Hero 4 mostly because of it's better microphone but which is unfortunately not water resistant. But, I think it's about time for an upgrade! I'm thinking the Hero 9, probably due by the Autumn of 2020 will be just the sizable upgrade I'm looking for)
