Overview

THE QUICK, SHARP FEEL OF A SUPERLIGHT COMPOSITE HARDTAIL, THE CONTROL OF 29-INCH WHEELS. XC RACERS CAN HAVE IT ALL.

Giant’s first-ever composite 29er was developed to meet the demands of our professional racers. They asked for the stability and control of a 29er, but with razor-sharp handling. Made with Giant Composite Technology, the frame’s massive MegaDrive downtube and OverDrive headtube give it quick, precise steering. Asymmetrical chainstays and a PowerCore bottom bracket boost traction and acceleration. Find new confidence, and speed, with XtC Composite 29er.

WeightHow much does this bike weigh? It’s a common question, and rightly so. But the truth is, there are no industry standards for claiming bike weights—and this leads to a lot of misinformation. Variances exist based on size, frame material, finish and hardware. And as bikes get lighter, these differences become more critical. At Giant, we believe the only way to truly know the weight of any particular bike is to find out for yourself at your local retailer.
