Adam Craig asked for three qualities in his ultimate XC race rig: outright speed, razor-sharp handling and ultra light weight. Giant responded by building him the revolutionary Anthem Advanced. Giant’s own formulaOne Composite construction and legendary Maestro Suspension are teamed up in the world’s premier full-composite, full-suspension XC racing frameset.
FRAME TECHNOLOGY
Featuring a breakthrough full composite, XC racing suspension frameset, the Anthem Advanced is the lightest and most compliant off-road frame Giant has ever produced. Using hyper-light T-800 composite frame material and composite Maestro suspension rocker links, this featherweight frame offers unparalleled ride quality and performance.
