For years, one of the most trusted names in DH racing—from rookies to seasoned pros—has  
been Glory. This year’s all-new Glory features 8 inches of fully active Maestro suspension mated 
to a lightweight and rugged ALUXX SL aluminum frame to inspire confidence in the most extreme  
DH conditions. 

— Fox 40 RC2, 203mm suspension fork, Fox DHX RC4 coil rear shock
— Shimano Saint group 
— Race Face Diabolus DH stem and Atlas handlebar
— Custom Mavic EX721 rim/Shimano Saint hubs, wheelset

*Seat angle is actual
**Toptube is measured from the center of the headtube horizontally back to the top of the effective extension of the seattube
***Standover height is based on the largest size tire that will fit the bike, not necessarily the included size tire
