BIKE TECHNOLOGY
As Livs o-road line continues to evolve and oer product for every level and type of female
rider, we continue to stay committed to the 27.5-inch wheel size. Nowhere is it more evident that
women ride dierently than men, than on the mountain bike. The 27.5-inch wheel size combines
the most desirable attributes of 26 and 29-inch wheels and allows our engineers to design the best
possible bikes for how women ride. Livs entire o-road line-up, from sport-level to elite, features
bikes with 27.5-inch wheels.
Lighter Weight
The lighter the bike, the less energy
and effort you have to exert. Long rides
become easier, and you ride faster.
27.5-inch wheels are lighter than
29-inch, and they allow Liv to design
lighter frames. Livs elite athletes
benefit from the weight savings,
as evidenced by their World Cup
wins, and youll appreciate the lighter
weight too!
More Efficient
The ability for 27.5-inch wheels to easily
roll over obstacles means that you can
ride technical trails with less effort and
more confidence. Also, 27.5-inch wheels
accelerate more quickly than 29-inch,
so you use less energy to get rolling.
Quick acceleration increases your ability
to maintain momentum in rough terrain,
up hills or across flats.
Better Control
The optimal tire-to-ground contact
patch provided by 27.5-inch wheels
improves cornering, acceleration and
braking ability. And when combined
with Livs 3F womens-specific and
27.5-optimized frame geometry, the
27.5-inch wheel size delivers better
control than bikes with 26 or 29-inch
wheels. Also, because these 27.5optimized frames allow for excellent
standover clearance and a shorter
wheelbase, its easier for female riders
to find their ideal bike fit.

BIKE TECHNOLOGY
Advanced Forged
Composite
Technology
Advanced Forged Composite Technology
is a state-of-the-art, high-pressure molding
process used to produce complex-shaped
components. The key to Advanced Forged
Composite Technology is multi-directional
carbon construction and an innovative
new process that uses extreme pressuremolding. In Model Year 2017, Advanced
Forged Composite Technology composite
technology is used to manufacture the
upper rocker arm of the Maestro
Suspension System on the Pique and
Hail Advanced models.

BIKE TECHNOLOGY
MAESTRO SUSPENSION
While Liv designs bikes from the ground
up for women, we are able to oer
the best suspension technology in the
world thanks to Giant. Whatever o-road
adventures you seek, Giants Maestro
Suspension helps you make the most of
your eorts. You get more of everything
with Maestro control, traction,
comfort, speed.
How It Works
Pedaling Efficiency
Features: Maestros linear spring curve allows the rear suspension to remain incredibly
sensitive to both small and big impacts without packing up over rapid, successive hits
or bottoming out over big hits. The secret is Maestros floating pivot point, which allows
the suspension to remain completely active, efficient and independent, even under heavy
pedaling and braking forces.
Complete Suspension
Activity
Benefit: The better the contact with the ground, the more control you have. And the more
sensitive your suspension is, the better your acceleration, braking and cornering traction.
Features: Maestro utilizes four strategically positioned pivot points and two linkages that
all work to create a single floating pivot point.
Benefit: This single floating pivot point improves pedaling efficiency by counteracting
pedaling forces that would otherwise create suspension compression (squatting) or pedal
kickback (bobbing). Both seriously hinder performance by sapping energy from you and
your bike.
BIKE TECHNOLOGY
TRUNNION MOUNT
Found on the 2017 Pique and Hail o-road bikes,
this new shock mount design further improves the
performance of Maestro Suspension. Working with our
key suspension suppliers, we created the new mount
to produce the following four core benefits for riders:
Feature: Centralized
suspension mass
Benefit: The actual ability to
place the suspension system at
a lower level, lowers center of
gravity and improves
the bikes overall handling.

Excellent Support
ExoBeam hugs the foot to create a customized, secure
fit, backed by a support strap for reining laces.
Excellent Flexibility
ExoFlex is a unique technology that allows the toe area
of the shoe to move independently of the main ExoBeam
sole.This results in superior traction o the bike (pushing
or running uphill), plus enhanced overall foot comfort. Ideal
for cyclocross or XC racing, ExoFlex optimizes the natural
flex of the toes and also reduces heel slip at the back of
the shoe.
