GIANT’S WORLD CUP PROS LOVE RIPPING FAST
TRAIL RIDES NEARLY AS MUCH AS THEY DO
WINNING XC RACES. WITH THIS BIKE, THEY DO BOTH.
Start with an ALUXX SL aluminum frameset, a hydro-formed work of art with all the right angles,
then add 4 inches of active Maestro travel, and you get an XC race bike that’s light enough to waltz
up nasty climbs and stable enough to rail rutted descents. Test editors everywhere agree with
Giant pros: Anthem X nails it.
— RockShox SID Team, 100mm suspension fork
and Fox Float RP23 rear shock
— Shimano Deore XT/XTR components
— Giant Contact seatpost, stem and handlebar
— Shimano Deore XT 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
