Cant say im much of a fan of the 2010  Undecided
Or the 2009 colours

Agreed.
In my opinion, the colours are horrible.
 If the 2010 rides really well and is light then i'm not complaining, but the design isn't one of my favourites (yet).

The 09 looks gash, but it hik the 2010 looks amazing.

And with those BOS shocks, it aint gonna be cheap!

Any idea on RRP atm?

nope thats not the 2010 model, its a carbon prototype that the giant team use. doubt it will be for sale...i know this coz a giant rep' came into the bike shop i work in and showed all of the 09 bikes and the prototype bikes  Wink

Yes. Because if it was made of carbon it would be welded together Roll Eyes

2009 is now £3,500 and is heavier than the 2008. I think the new Saint kit makes the '09 Glory look shite. We got 33 of our 2009 bikes on Friday with more coming daily.

i for one really hope that 2010 glory gets scraped and they make small changes to the tried and tested current frame, don't like the idea of loosing the ''glory hole'' at all to be honest  as it think it makes the bike and distinguishes it from the Sunday even more so as they are rather similar. just personal taste of aesthetics really, but if it performs better and is lighter then there's no choice really, bikes have to get better not look prettier, shame really.

from that point of view i can see what you mean and that it may not be so practical for adjustments, but generally speaking i only have to set my rear shock up once with air and make minor adjustments to the rebound occasionally which is no hassle.

i can see them bringing out the 2010 glory, in 2009 not as a glory tho, maybe under another name,

Witch means they have 2 dh bikes.

more bike=more money

There's a reason why no other bike company has more than one thoroughbred DH bike in their current line up. Roll Eyes
