Luggage Carrier
When using the luggage carrier, make sure all items are securely fastened to avoid interfering with the rear wheel.
The maximum load capacity for the luggage carrier is 33 pounds (15 kilograms).
WARNING: Revive is not designed to be used with a child carrier. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ATTACH A CHILD CARRIER TO REVIVE.
WARNING: Use caution when riding up a steep incline. Quick and forceful acceleration can cause the front wheel to raise up off the
ground, which could cause you to lose control of the bicycle.
Shock Absorber Adjustment
Revive is equipped with a rear shock absorber (FIG. 10) that increases comfort and control even further. When
seated on the bicycle, the shock absorber should compress no more than one-third (1/3) of the entire length of
the piston rod (upper portion of the shock absorber, inside of the coil spring). The firmness of the spring can be
adjusted for different rider weights.
The shock absorber’s coil spring is adjusted by turning a large ring, located at the base (lower section) of the coil
spring. The ring turns along the shock absorber’s piston body on threads, like a nut turning on a bolt.
To adjust the coil spring’s firmness, grasp the adjustment by wrapping your entire hand around the ring. To increase
firmness for heavier riders, turn (tighten) the ring clockwise. To decrease firmness for lighter riders, turn (loosen)
the ring counter clockwise.
The ring should never be tightened more than half way up the shock’s piston body (lower portion of shock inside
the coil spring), nor should it be loosened to the point where the ring is free to turn; there should always be some
pressure on the coil spring.
Maximum rider weight for Revive is 265 pounds (120 kilograms).
Enclosed Chain Device (ECD)
The Revive DX is equipped with an Enclosed Chain Device (ECD: FIG. 11) that protects the
chain from exposure to the elements. The ECD also keeps the chain from coming into contact
with the rider. The system is designed to require minimal maintenance.
It is recommended that you take your Revive back to your Authorized Professional Cycling
Retailer after 30 days or approximately 30 hours of riding for to check for proper chain tension.
It is also recommended that the chain be lubricated approximately every 1000 miles or six
months, whichever comes first. Also, minor adjustment to chain tension should also be performed
at these intervals. Your Authorized Giant Professional Cycling Retailer can quickly and easily provide these services. If your chain makes
