Giant Anthem Advanced SL 2 - Mariana Blue

FULL CONTROL
The new FlexPoint Pro suspension offers 120 mm of smooth, active rear travel, paired with a 120 mm fork – so you can handle tough descents and power through technical climbs. With a flip chip you can fine-tune handling for all types of XC terrain. The super-light Giant WheelSystems in carbon or alloy (depending on the model) feature a state-of-the-art 120-tooth ratchet drive system for instant power transfer and robust 5 mm rim sidewalls for better protection against impacts and punctures.

LOW-LATENCY SPEED CONCEPT
The completely revised carbon frame is 89 grams lighter than its predecessor and has a 7.95 percent better stiffness-to-weight ratio (efficiency), so you have more power uphill and every watt counts. The WheelSystems and the integrated handlebar/stem units are designed for maximum efficiency and immediate response to the rider’s inputs. The rear shock has been repositioned and partially integrated into the top tube, saving weight and creating space for a second bottle cage.

SYSTEM INTEGRATION
A new integrated handlebar/stem unit provides more flexibility to reduce impacts and vibration, improving control and comfort for your hands. It is available in two models: Contact SLR XC Integrated Carbon and Contact SL XC Integrated Alu. Both feature the same seamless cable routing and are available in different sizes with a standard width of 780 mm and stem lengths from 50 to 90 mm.
