Hi there everyone,
An update regarding my case. Two months without my Revolt Advanced 2019 due to a crack in the frame. Giant Japan told me they will replace it. At the begining they said it would be with a 2019 black frame. Yesterday they told me something like "it would be with whatever we have available (2019, 2020, 2021 or even 2022 frame), but most probably it would be 2021 or 2022 frame".

The bad news is that they just do not know when that is gonna happen due to a lack of components, frames, etc. He even told me "come here, pick up your bike and use it carefully. I will call you when the frame is here", which is what I am gonna do. Patience.

The 2022 geo changed it seems. I hope it works for you if you get one. On paper it looks nice to me.

New frame version has more mounting points and a lower BB, like the Liv Devote.

Every MFG has issues with frames. I have seen a few pics on here or FB. But that is 5 or 10 out of 1000's sold. Mine is a 2019 with many miles toting my 235 lbs self on it with zero issues.

Hi there...after three months waiting, finally I got my new frame and also my bike back. The very good news is that Giant replaced my Giant Revolt Advanced 2019 with a 2022 frame!! I am very lucky. Frame is a bit longer than previous generation, so I will have to change the stem from 90mm to 70mm. MANY THANKS Giant!!!

Very nice! Does the new frame still have the mounts for a rack?

As I mentioned before, my crack was at the bottom of the seat tube. By the color of the frame I assume your Revolt is the 2019 model (like mine). It clearly appears that that model (specifically some Revolts) had a design problem with the seat tube. Good luck with the replacement of your frame.

Just out of curiosity, roughly how many km's did you have on yours?

How much seat post do you have down in the frame?

Less than a month into owning it I installed the longer D-Fuse post (stock 350mm, long 380mm) because I was worried about the amount of flex. It was a very comfortable ride for sure but the stock setup felt like it robbed power. With the stock setup I was 10mm above minimum insertion.
