Hi, We all know that the problem with Giant Reign is it's weight, and it is really good news to know that the new 2008 Giant Reign is 1.62lbs lighter than the previous one! If the trance x will not come here, I bet this 08 reign will be and with 6inch travel and just weight like the old trance, wow, this is for me.. I think all the new models, the new design improved it's weight: Trance (4.2 inches of travel) Trail bike application. Frame 250 grams lighter than 2007 version (8.8% reduction). 10.5% stiffer than 2007 version (mostly as a result of improved headtube stiffness). Trance X (5 inches of travel) Bigger hit trail bike application. Frame 244 grams lighter than 2007 Trance (4.2 inch frame), yet has 5 inches of travel. 13.75% stiffer than 2007 Trance. Only 200 grams heavier than aluminum Anthem frame (3.5 inches of travel). Reign (6 inches of travel) All-mountain application. Frame 738 grams lighter than 2007 version (21% reduction). 23% stiffer than 2007 (mostly as a result of improved headtube stiffness). Regards, Charles
