This XC ripper completes a range that’s already been proven through World Cup wins and World Championship titles. It pairs an Advanced Pro-grade composite frame with FlexPoint Pro rear suspension, giving you 120mm of smooth, active rear travel paired with a 120mm fork. Power up switchbacks, bomb technical descents, and find more flow on XC terrain.
Key Performance Factors
LOW-LATENCY SPEED CONCEPT
An updated Advanced Pro composite frame delivers efficient power transfer to help you power up climbs and make every watt count. The semi-integrated rear suspension shaves weight and opens up space for a second water bottle. And an integrated alloy handlebar/stem unit creates an aggressive, attack-ready position for instant response on every climb and sprint.
TOTAL CONTROL
The new FlexPoint Pro suspension delivers 120mm of smooth, active rear travel paired with a 120mm fork, helping you fly down rough descents and power up technical climbs. A flip chip lets you fine-tune handling for all types of XC terrain. The XCA 2 29 WheelSystem features robust 5mm-thick rounded edges to help deflect angled strikes and reduce the risk of rim damage and tire sidewall cuts.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Giant-engineered suspension products — including the Crest FloTrac XC shock and Crest XC Comp fork— are custom-tuned for FlexPoint Pro’s suspension kinematics. A one-piece Contact SL XC integrated alloy handlebar/stem unit adds compliance to reduce shocks and vibrations while adding under-bar cable routing for a clean cockpit setup.
Highlights
1
ADVANCED COMPOSITE
Raw carbon is woven in the Giant composite factory using advanced engineering and construction methods. Fully integrated inner molding creates a one-piece front triangle with minimal weight. Cold-blade cutting using fewer sections of composite allows for minimal overlapping, superior wall thickness control, and finely tuned frame stiffness.
2
FLEXPOINT PRO SUSPENSION
Developed as superlight rear suspension for XC bikes that demand efficiency, control and responsive handling, this 120mm single-pivot system is semi-integrated and attached beneath the top tube with a full-composite swingarm to minimize frame weight.
3
ADVANCED FORGED COMPOSITE
A high-pressure molding process is used to produce a complex shaped carbon-fiber upper rocker arm that is lighter, stiffer and stronger than an aluminum version.
4
ADJUSTABLE GEOMETRY
A two-position flip chip lets you adjust frame geometry and fine-tune the handling for your riding style and terrain. The High setting locks in a steeper head and seat tube angle for sharp, aggressive handling. The Low setting reduces those angles by a half-degree, offering slightly more relaxed handling for the most technical terrain.
5
TWO BOTTLES
The new frame design has space for a second water bottle. Integrated mounts on the seat tube allow you to carry more hydration without having to wear a pack — a major upgrade for marathon races or longer XC rides.
6
CREST FLOTRAC XC SHOCK
Purpose-built and tuned to complement the suspension kinematics of Giant XC bikes with an optimized air spring for full support across the stroke spectrum. Triple Flow Path technology regulates oil flow, ensuring optimal performance and ground contact in open, firm or lockout modes.
7
CREST XC COMP FORK
Optimized for fast, technical XC terrain, this longer travel 130mm fork features a twin-air spring system with small-bump sensitivity and a smooth, linear spring curve. The refined damper oil circuit flows freely, so the fork reacts quickly to terrain changes and gives you optimal tire contact and traction.
8
OVERDRIVE
Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance, the system's oversized headset bearings (1 1/2" lower and 1 1/8" upper) and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness.
9
MEGADRIVE
A massive down tube and oversized top tube provide superior front end lateral and torsional stiffness. The precisely engineered, rectangular shaped down tube yields unprecedented steering precision and pedaling performance.
10
POWERCORE
A massively oversized bottom bracket area features a fully integrated, 92mm wide design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and increased stability on the non-driveside.
11
WIDE GUARD
Hookless rims designed with robust 5mm thick rounded edges to help deflect angled strikes and reduce the risk of rim damage and tire sidewall cuts. This design lets you run lower tire pressures for greater control and a reduced risk of punctures.
12
GIANT TUBELESS SYSTEM
Integrated Tubeless WheelSystem and tires deliver improved efficiency, comfort and control in the most user-friendly and reliable system.
