Anthem Advanced SL SE
EVERY SECOND COUNTS
Built for XC riders who demand race-winning performance, this limited edition is built from the same DNA as the machine Alan Hatherly rode to a 2025 world championship title. Along with an exclusive graphic treatment, it's the first bike to feature the new CADEX Max XC WheelSystem for superior transmission stiffness, durability, and lateral rigidity. It’s explosive, precise, and ready to rail XC terrain.
Glavne značilnosti
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 superlight CADEX Max XC WheelSystem with Wide Guard rim technology and robust 5mm-thick sidewalls allows lower tire pressures for greater control and puncture protection.
LOW-LATENCY SPEED CONCEPT
A fully reengineered composite frameset is 89g lighter with an 8.64% percent greater stiffness-to-weight ratio to help you power up climbs and make every watt count. The WheelSystem and integrated handlebar/stem unit is designed for maximum efficiency and instantaneous response to rider input. The rear shock is repositioned and semi-integrated with the top tube, shaving weight and creating space for a second water bottle cage.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION
The Contact SLR XC integrated composite handlebar/stem unit adds compliance to reduce shocks and vibrations, giving you better control and hand comfort. Its geometry is optimized for XC racing with a -8° stem angle, 9° back-sweep, and 2° up-sweep. It features clean cable routing and versatile sizing with a 780mm standard width and multiple stem length options ranging from 60-80mm.

1
ADVANCED SL COMPOSITE
Professional-grade raw carbon is woven in the Giant composite factory using the most advanced engineering and construction methods. Continuous Fiber Technology adds strength and minimizes weight.
2
CADEX MAX XC WHEELSYSTEM
One-piece hookless carbon rims deliver race-ready stiffness and efficiency balanced with smooth compliance. Wide Guard rim technology with 5mm wide rounded outer edges helps reduce the risk of rim damage and punctures. And a 120-tooth helical-bevel ratchet hub gives you instant power transfer and smooth engagement.
3
FLEXPOINT PRO SUSPENSION
Developed as superlight rear suspension for XC bikes that demand efficiency, control and responsive handling, this 120mm, linkage-driven, single-pivot system is semi-integrated and attached beneath the top tube with a full-composite swingarm to minimize frame weight.
4
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.
5
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, along with a higher bottom bracket, for sharp, aggressive handling on tight, technical terrain. The Low setting reduces the head and seat tube angles and lowers the bottom bracket, offering slightly more relaxed handling and greater control for high-speed descents.
6
TWO BOTTLES
New frame design provides 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.
7
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.
8
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.
9
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.
