Well its spring-time and thats when the forums really starting heating up. Heres my 2010 Glory (Large) I picked up today, her name will be Gloria. I put a few parts on and updated each time with some photos. Many more new parts means more photos to come.


Just the frame with the new Thomson Elite seatpost.

e.13 SRS+ used for a few rides last season

RaceFace Atlas FR cranks in Tooth Blue

Thanks for looking

Nice bike but this is 2010 you need to pimp slap it and call it BIOTCH!!!!

Put that frame in check before it gets all bike liberal and expects any rights, next thing it will be asking for dual der.and wanting to go uphill!!!! :D


Nice ride going to be a sweet build... Pics of completed!!

I weigh 175 lbs and raced them on some of the toughest terrain around last year (Plattekill, Diablo, etc) and they seemed to hold up pretty well, few dings here and there but what can you expect?

If I were You, I'd take medium, even though, it's bit longer than previous Glory.

Interesting, my friends '10 DH0 has "Giant" stickers all over it factory ( I am sure I counted 10! ) but that frame is pretty clean. I am liking it :thumb:

yeah im about 6'2, to lazy to figure that out in cm's, im one of the taller lankier guys racing DH these days, as for the Giant stickers, it is plastered in them, for some reason with the camera angle you can only see one, theres a huge one on the down tube, few on the seat stays etc, im very stoked to see how much she will weigh
