Additional Info

This is my "Back to the future project".I always want to put recents parts and technology (2024-2025) on a 20years old-ishh frame. That's the result: 2007 Giant Glory Large frame, 2024 Fox 40 (custom paint 2007 style). Mullet 29-27.5. Carbon Enve M930 Wheels (rebadged EDGE, Edge was the 2005-2010 Enve's name). Race Face Era carbon crankset rebadged "Diabolus" like the coolest Race Face DH cranks in 2007. Sram X01 DH 7spd. Cushcore+ Schwalbe Race Tacky Chan tires. 

The bike is surprisingly really fun to ride. Ride more like a recent bike than a 2007 Glory.
