Giant Anthem Advanced 27.5 Frameset (2014)

Engineered to give Giant’s elite-level racers every advantage on technical XC racecourses, this all-new bike features the race-proven performance of the Anthem name-smooth Maestro Suspension, confident handling and lightweight frame technology-but supercharged with a new purpose-built 27.5-inch-wheel frame design. Handcrafted with a superlight and stiff Advanced Composite mainframe and meticulously engineered geometry, optimized for a 100mm suspension fork, it’s the ultimate XC speed machine. Frame technologies include Giant’s OverDrive 2 steerer tube for precision stiffness and steering, internal cable routing, and dropper seat cable routing.
