Giant frames question

Anyone familiar with Giant sales here in the US?

I'm looking for a Reign frame (only), but I'm only finding sales overseas
(mainly the UK).

Does Giant even sell frames in the US.

And a related question, do they allow their stuff to be sold on-line, or
is it another Specy situation?

I don't know if they had the reign in particular, but I've seen a few
Giants at a couple shops in New Hampshire. If I can recall one that
isn't terrible I'll see about a web site, or at least name & #.

A quick froogle told me that texomacyclingcenter.com has the Reign
available. Their shop & HQ is in Texas. Seems to go for 1000-3600
depending in which particular model you want, and different shops carry
different models.

Good luck, and if you snag one let us know what you think.

Specy. Go to a dealer and try to haggle, or go private sale on eBay or mtbr
for more of a discount.

My coffee had not kicked in fully when I posted my last reply, and I
missed the "frame only" part.
If you click this link instead
http://froogle.google.com/froogle?q="giant+reign"&lmode=online&scoring=p
it will show you that bicyclesourse.us has the frame only (for $1139).
They are located in NJ, and will ship anywhere in the US.

I have seen the frames for sale at at least one of the local LBS's,
however. Unfortunately, I think you'd be better off with an
all-negative review/rating ebay seller than those criminals.
