Giant has unveiled the latest iteration of its Glory downhill bike for 2023.<\/p>\n

The new Glory downhill bike<\/a> still uses the brand\u2019s Maestro suspension platform, but it features updated kinematics for improved suppleness and progression.<\/p>\n

The bike should need no introduction. Think of Danny Hart winning the 2011 downhill world championships in Champ\u00e9ry Switzerland and you\u2019ll have a clear picture of what the Giant Glory has always been about.<\/p>\n

New for 2023 is a carbon frame and increased adjustability. There are three flip chips, with bottom bracket and head tube adjustment, and reach and chainstay length adjustments.<\/p>\n

The new lighter-weight frame is compatible with 650b and 29in rear wheels. It comes as standard with a mixed-wheel setup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There is one model available, the Glory Advanced at \u00a37,500\/$8,000\/AU$11,499, with European pricing to be confirmed. The Glory Advanced Legends Edition frameset with a Fox fork and shock<\/a> costs \u00a36,000\/$6,200\/AU$8,999.<\/p>\n
