Is Liv not part of Giant and will these bikes have the same stunningly great warranty as Giant bikes?

Frame sizes XS and S are solely designed with a mixed-wheel configuration–29-inch wheel up front and 27.5-inch wheel in the rear. This mixed-wheel configuration optimizes rear wheel travel and provides a nimble rear end and a fast-rolling, stable front end. Frame sizes M and L come out of the box with 29-inch wheels up front and in the rear, but are mixed-wheel compatible, providing riders with a customizable riding experience should they choose to swap to a 27.5-inch wheel in the rear.

Thus voiding any warranty.

Warranty denied as I stripped the bike down?

Giant have done it now as members on here have a notoriously long memory...every Giant/Liv related thread for the next decade will have this link

Memory may be long, but as per the Unexpected consequences of aging thread forumites might not remember all the details (or indeed why theu opened a thread on Giant bikes).

I was literally waiting for this, I bet every single bit of giant uk's marketing literature has encouragements to void the warranty. Hilarious.

It's properly funny how the STW staff have started trolling us lot.
Or have they got it in for Giant too?

I am pretty sure they just copied the Giant press release.

I mean this part of the screed below positively encourages you to fettle. It seems like the want you to change the flip chip on the mountain to suit the terrain? Which, in the immortal words above would thereby invalidate the warranty.

Featuring the new flip chip Maestro 3, riders can change the head tube angle, seat tube angle, and bottom bracket height to high, mid, or low settings depending on the terrain and wheel configuration. On average, the change between each of the three positions is 0.4 degrees for the head tube and seat tube angles and 5mm of bottom bracket drop. For frame sizes M and L, the flip chip also enables the change of rear wheel size between 27.5-inch and 29-inch, providing stability for different terrain and riding preference.

It would be really funny if it wasn't so bloody sad.

Can it be pure coincidence that there are Giant/Liv stories suddenly appearing?

Will you need a Giant authorised mechanic to fit and remove the snacks from the onboard storage too?

What's going on with the seatpost? and would you have to take it to a Giant authorised dealer to have it adjusted

looks like there's not enough seatpost in the frame, possibly leading to a crack in the ST/TT junction.

Are Giant trolling the population of STW?

Love how this has spilled onto the Pinkbike's article comments too!

just in the same manner that anyone posts anything involving a monorail... requires automatic Simpsons quotes....

 

it will be the same now on for Giant...

"What's it called?

"Warranty...

Warranty..

Once again!

Warranty!"
