First Look: 2013 Giant Glory 0
The World Champion accepts nothing less. Danny Hart and his mechanics helped Giant develop the perfect machine for Danny's attacking style. Handcrafted to conquer all types of DH terrain - from awe-inspiring World Cup tracks to black diamond backcountry runs - it's smooth, fast and oozing with confidence.
Everything about the new 2013 Giant Glory says speed. Radically shaped, FluidForm ALUXX SL tubes form a lightweight, super-strong chassis. The OverDrive steerer tube design produces razor-sharp front-end handling. The plush, always-active Maestro Suspension eats up rocks and ruts and smoothes out rough landings. Every angle and tube is meticulously engineered and tested to give Danny Hart and his teammates the edge they need. And the world champion's rainbow stripes are a reminder of what this bike can do.
The 2013 Giant Glory 0 is the same bike Danny Hart rode to victory at the 2011 UCI Downhill World Championships in Champery, Switzerland.
GEOMETRY
2013 Glory features reengineered frame geometry including a 63.5-degree head angle, lower bottom bracket height and longer wheelbase. The ultimate combo for stability and speed.
With 8 inches of Maestro suspension and a handcrafted ALUXX SL aluminum grame, the Glory 0 delivers World Cup-level performance to DH racers and riders.
OVERDRIVE
Giant's innovative oversized fork steerer-tube design produces razor-sharp handling on the roughest trails. The tapered steerer and oversized bearings (1-1/8-inch top, 1-1/4-inch bottom) boost torsional steering stiffness - 15 percent compared to straight steerer-tube designs - giving you more confidence and control when you need it most.
