Giant's High Performance-grade raw carbon fiber is used to produce custom composite material in our own composite factory that is extremely lightweight, stiff and compliant.

A massive rectangular downtube and oversized toptube work in unison to provide superior front-end lateral and torsional steering precision. The precisely engineered rectangular downtube yields unprecedented steering and pedaling stiffness.

An oversized, fully integrated 86mm wide bottom bracket with a threaded design delivers optimal power transfer. And asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.

Designed to provide 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.

Four strategically positioned pivot points and two linkages all work together to create a single floating pivot point for the most active, efficient and independent suspension system on the trail.

Aggressive geometry, including a 63-degree headtube and a longer wheelbase, is optimized for 27.5 wheels and designed in collaboration with the Giant Factory Off-Road World Cup DH race team to excel in the toughest terrain.
