GIANT Anthem Advanced SL 2 Mariana Blue Mountain bike

The Anthem Advanced SL is a revolutionary racing machine that pushes the boundaries of cross-country racing. Proven in real-world racing, this bike has helped Alan Hatherly win the World Championship and the World Cup. Now it’s your turn.

1. Advanced SL carbon frame – lighter and stiffer than ever before
   The completely redesigned top-of-the-line frame is 89 grams lighter than its predecessor and offers a 7.95% increase in stiffness-to-weight ratio. Continuous-fiber technology ensures maximum power transfer without hesitation – every pedal stroke counts.
2. New FlexPoint Pro suspension – 120 mm of freedom
   The all-new semi-integrated shock design under the top tube reduces weight and increases sensitivity to the terrain. The rear travel has been increased to 120 mm, the flip chip allows for easy geometry adjustments, and there’s more room for a second bottle cage.

• Manufactured in Giant’s own factory
• One-piece 780 mm handlebar/stem combo
• Carbon wheels with 120-tooth cassette
• Robust 5mm rim sidewall
• Clear internal cable routing
