Brawler Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Bike shop messing me around WRT to Trance + Pike. Just watched a Reign 2 video and short review and I'm tempted to change my mind. Anyone have any ideas when they will be here and is anyone taking pre-orders? Thanks

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 If you can wait, it'll be worth it imo
Pikey Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 Any idea on the price? On a par with the trance or more expensive ? Also have my eye on the reign 2.
nolipoli Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 I want it so bad, but I can't justify selling my Trance. If I was where you are now, I would wait for the Reign. On the pricing side, by the time you have Piked your Trance, as well as added a dropper, and other upgrades, I think the prices will be similar.
Brawler Posted September 16, 2014 Author Posted September 16, 2014 I heard Reign will be about 30k A trance with pike and AM wheels will be well over 40k! It will be higher specced though, a better climber and 'almost' as good downhill. Decisions decisions decisions... This also brings Enduro 650b back into the game. Its available shortly.

Ai and the loop starts again!
Gringo Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 My 2015 Anthem is arriving here end September/1st week October. Reign should be here shortly after that...?

Its available shortly.But the Reign comes with a PIKE, and AM wheels. It also comes with a dropper post, deore brakes, AND 160mm of rear travel. What is this "Enduro 650B" you speak of, man with forked tongue?

What is this "Enduro 650B" you speak of, man with forked tongue? yeah the Reign is decent but compared to the pimped out trance its: Reign Pike RC vs Trance RCT dual positionReign Giant AM wheels vs Trance Stans Flow Ex on hopeReign Deore crank vs Trance SLX So as you can see the pimped out trance will be quite a bit better specced besides for <1 inch rear travel. It will cost R10k more though.. At least a stock reign is decent enough though. A won't be happy with a stock trance. Specialized enduro 650b very good at 34khttp://www.specialized.com/us/en/bikes/mountain/enduro/enduro-comp-650b
