Fox offered a better deal?

And I’m sure better backup support / warranty support than DVO which would be important at the volume that giant sells.

How does Giant consistently screw up bike aesthetics?

It's quite a skill.

Apparently they make a true solid effort, so I am led to believe

The anthem is shite. Top one (reign I assume) looks like a heap of other frames around.

That anthem looks like it has huge TT and ST lengths. XXL ?

Use DVO for a year and have a slight drop in profits to get Fox to make a better offer for long term profit.

Yeah but the colourway is shit.

+1 on that.

Makes the bottom one look even worse.

DVO and xc don’t really go together, maybe fox covered all bases.

Practice.

Still looks better than 90% of what they’ pumped out in last 10 years.

The awkward TT is the focal point of fugly on that anthem.

I accidentally went a Giant 'experience' story today. There was only one 27.5 mid range dually and a few long travel 29"ers and HT. The rest were e-bikes.

About a third of bikes I saw on the trails today were e-mtbs.

Nothing was as bad as the complementary colour madness that went on about 3 years ago.
Even Santa Cruz looked shit. There was pink with grey, pink and yellow , fluoro with NATO grey , fluoro green + blue

Someone said a lack of colour was a lack of imagination.?? Cyan + magenta is too much.

 

[Cardy George]

Especially when neither of those colours are cyan or magenta......

 

[nzhumpy]

Just make them all stealth/murdered out or raw for Ali...impossible to cock that up.

SRAM is nailing Shimano. They need to buy fox to get back in the game.
