ELITE XC RACING IS DOG-EAT-DOG. EVERY ADVANTAGE 

COUNTS FOR PERFORMANCE-OBSESSED PROS. 

HERE’S WHY ADAM CRAIG IS ONE HAPPY PRO. 

Simply put, it’s the fastest XC bike ever produced by Giant. Built from Giant’s top-grade Advanced 
SL composite, the frame features a massive downtube and bottom bracket area for maximum 
pedaling efficiency, an oversize tapered headtube for steering precision and 4 inches 
of award-winning Maestro suspension. 

— RockShox SID World Cup tapered, 100mm suspension fork  

with hydro lockout and Fox Float RP23 rear shock

— SRAM XX component group
— Giant Contact SLR composite stem and seatpost
— Mavic CrossMax SLR wheelset

*Seat angle is actual
**Toptube is measured from the center of the headtube horizontally back to the top of the effective extension of the seattube
***Standover height is based on the largest size tire that will fit the bike, not necessarily the included size tire
