Giant Anthem Advanced Pro 29 2 2020

About Giant Anthem Advanced Pro 29 2 2020
Handcrafted with a superlight Advanced grade carbon frame, this XC flyer features 90mm of smooth rear suspension travel and 100mm up front. The new trunnion mount shock produces a lower leverage ratio for better pedalling and braking efficiency and also allows for shorter chainstays improving the bike’s climbing capabilities and agility. The Advanced Forged Composite upper rocker arm is lighter, stiffer and stronger than the previous aluminium version and the combination of wider Boost hub spacing and a Giant WheelSystem gives you super strong and stiff wheels for confident, precise handling on XC terrain.

Key Performance Factors
XC Efficiency: Advanced Composite frameset (mainframe and rear swingarm) is superlight with aggressive 69-degree headtube and 73.5-degree seattube angles for faster climbing and accelerating.

29er speed and stability: Frame geometry and suspension are optimised for 29 inch wheels to deliver a race winning combo of speed and stability on XC terrain.

Traction and control: Updated Maestro Suspension with an Advanced Forged Composite rocker arm and trunnion mount shock delivers smooth suspension performance on XC climbs, corners and descents.
