Im planning to be a proud owner of a Reign 2 pretty soon here. and i was wondering if anyone knew if you could run a Piggyback shock inverted? because i know that if you run it regular it will not fit through the hole

Don't think so. If the piggyback wont clear the frame coming down it's not gonna fit if you just flip the shock over.

according to that picture it looks like i can just fit it through that gap in between the mounts?

You can try it, everyone I've asked about it said it wouldn't fit though. I never measured anything up myself though.

I flipped the shock on my Glory, obviously things are a bit tighter on a Reign, but the same concept applies.

may work...............try a local bike shop to test with a real shock. Wish I could do that with my 05 Reign.

From what I know, the pic shown you can put an inverted shock on, but Giant had changed the Maestro design a few times, not sure how many for the Reign but for some of the years it was a much tighter fit and would not work. You would also have to custom make a mudguard, if you planned on installing one. Though I suppose the years that came with mudguards stock, you could just remove that piece...
