Liv Intrigue

The Intrigue is Liv's trail and enduro flagship — the women's-specific counterpart in DNA to Giant's Trance and Reign. Liv splits the platform across two distinct travel buckets: the standard Intrigue with 140mm rear / 150mm front travel for everyday trail riding, and the Intrigue LT (Longer Travel) with 150mm rear / 160mm front for aggressive enduro and bike-park use. Both run on 29" wheels, the Maestro suspension platform Giant has used since 2007, and frame geometry tuned around female-specific saddle-to-bar drop and reach figures rather than being scaled from a unisex platform. The 2024 lineup ladder spans the alloy Intrigue LT 2 at €3,399 (SRAM SX Eagle, RockShox suspension) through the carbon Intrigue LT Advanced Pro 1 at €6,799 (SRAM GX, Fox 36 Performance Elite, Fox Float Performance Elite shock). It is one of the few enduro-capable women's bikes still in the catalog after most mass-market brands quietly killed their women's lineups in the late 2010s.
