The Glory is a new Downhill bike equipped with the Maestro suspension system.
It inherits all the excellences of Maestro suspension technology and is tuned
and polished to be the most efficient downhill dominator. The Glory is enhanced
in a generous way with better traction, steering, rigidity and acceleration, at the
same time, no braking influence, pedaling kickback and bobbing, giving a great
hand pushing the rider onto the podium.
Please read this service manual carefully. Improper assembly of the rear
shock, triangle, triangle link, rocker arm or malfunction of the suspension
system can be extremely hazardous, and may lead to an accident
causing injury or death.

COIL SHOCK SET-UP
All coil shock-equipped Giant bicycles use the same formula to determine “sag”
and “rebound damping”.
Please refer to the manufacturer’s technical information for specific
details regarding shock function and set-up prior to riding Giant bicycle.
SETTING AND ADJUSTING SAG
1. Turn the spring’s tension collar counter clockwise until there is minimal
tension on the spring.
2. With a felt-tip marker, place a dot on the edge of the collar so you can
measure full rotations of the shock collar.
3. With no load on the bike, measure the distance between the two fixing bolts
(eye-to-eye distance) at the top and bottom of the shock.
4. Position your bicycle next to a wall so that you can sit on the bike with both
feet on the pedals while steadying yourself with one arm. Gently sit on the
saddle without bouncing. Have a partner measure the eye-to-eye distance
while the rider is seated on the bike. Dismount gently.
5. Subtract the weighted eye-to-eye distance from the un-weighted eye-to-eye
distance to determine sag. See Sag Recommendations charts for sag
distances. For your convenience, compressed shock measurements have
been provided.
6. For general purpose riding, the shock should compress approximately one
quarter of its travel. Turn the shock’s tension collar clockwise to increase spring
tension/decrease shock sag.
7. If you sit on the bike with minimal tension on the spring and there is less than
one quarter shock travel, a lighter weight spring is needed. If you turn the shock
tension collar three turns and the shock compresses more than a quarter of the
shock’s travel, a heavier spring is needed.
Never tighten the spring tension collar past three turns from minimum
tension as doing so can cause damage to the spring and internal
workings of the shock.

Suspension Settings and Recommendations
Glory with Maestro
(8.8" rear suspension travel)
Giant’s Maestro rear suspension design precisely positions the pivots and
linkages to give you efficient pedaling and small bump compliance. Maestro’s
pivot placement allows the rear suspension to be completely active under
braking, allowing the rear wheel to react constantly to the terrain.
Maestro-equipped mountain bikes rely on rear suspension “sag”. Sag is a
critical performance component and is relative to the individual rider’s weight.
Giant’s Glory frame designs and travel is intended for aggressive freeriding and
recreational/competitive downhill riding. The sag range can accommodate a
wide variety of riding styles and terrain.
GLORY Sag Recommendations
The Giant Glory are downhill-specific bicycles made for both recreational and
competitive downhill riding and extreme freeriding. The multi-tunable shock can
be almost infinitely adjusted for all types of terrain and riding styles.
Glory Sag Recommendation:
EYE-TO-EYE
SAG COMPRESSED SHOCK LENGTH
9.5” (240mm)
Freeriding: .75” (19.0mm)
Downhill: .90” (22.8mm)
8.75” (211.0mm)
8.6” (217.2mm)
For Manitou 6-Way coil shock tuning set-up (high-speed and low speed
compression damping, SPV pressure and volume), please refer to shock
manufacturer’s technical manual.
NOTE: These settings must be made prior to standard sag and rebound
damping settings.
SETTING AND ADJUSTING REBOUND DAMPING
1. If you are unfamiliar with rebound damping, perform this procedure: With full
body weight, push down on the saddle forcefully to compress the shock. Watch
(and feel) how the shock rebounds from compression.
2. Next, turn the rebound damping knob clockwise until it stops and compress
the shock under full body weight. Note that the shock rebounds very slowly.
Next, turn the damping knob counterclockwise a few turns and re-perform your
compression testing until the shock rebounds just slightly more slowly than with
no damping.

3. To check the rebound damping rate while riding, ride off a curb while seated.
The rear suspension should bounce only once upon rebound (the heavier the
rider, the more damping will be required). Adjust accordingly to accomplish this
motion. If the suspension bounces more than once, turn the damping knob in
the appropriate direction until one bounce is achieved.
FRONT SUSPENSION TRAVEL & SAG GUIDE
To determine bike’s front suspension travel adjustments and
recommended settings, please refer to the fork manufacturer’s technical
manual.
A suspension fork is effective at both absorbing bump forces and helping the
tire track the ground for improved traction and braking control.
When in active mode, a fork will rely on sag to keep the front tire in better
contact with the ground during braking. The chart should be used as a general
guideline.
AIR SPRUNG FORKS
As a general guide, pump the main chamber (main spring) to a psi equal to 70%
of your body weight. Ride off a curb or similar object. If there is little or no
movement from the fork, decrease psi in 10-psi increments until desired
movement is achieved. If the fork bottoms out, increase the psi in 10-psi
increments until desired movement is achieved.
To check rebound, turn the rebound damping knob (if applicable) counter
clockwise until it stops. With full body weight, push down on the fork forcefully
with the front brake on, watch (and feel) how the fork rebounds. Turn the
rebound damping knob clockwise until the fork rebounds slightly slower than
with no damping (the heavier the rider, the more damping will be required).

SPRING AND ELASTOMER SPRUNG FORKS
Springs on these types of forks are set at the factory. Most have a simple
adjuster that allows the rider to make the fork firmer or softer depending on rider
weight. The heavier the rider, the firmer the spring setting should be.
SUGGESTED FRONT SUSPENSION SAG GUIDE (ALL TYPES)
FORK TRAVEL (mm) SAG* (mm)

*Manitou Forks with SPV may not sag upon initial rider weight. To check sag on
an SPV fork, inflate the main spring cartridge to 70% of rider’s weight, and the
SPV cartridge to 30% of rider’s weight (check the manufacturer’s technical info
for details).
