Anthem Advanced Pro 29
The Anthem Advanced Pro 29 frameset features Giant’s all-new trunnion mount shock, which produces a lower leverage ratio for better pedaling and braking efficiency, plus shorter chainstays to improve climbing capabilities and agility. And the Advanced Forged Composite upper rocker arm is lighter, stiffer and stronger than the previous aluminum version. The combination of wider Boost hub spacing and Giant WheelSystems gives you super strong and stiff wheels for confident, precise handling on rugged trails. Here are the core technologies that help the Anthem Advanced Pro 29 give you a competitive edge over XC terrain:
Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.
A state-of-the-art high-pressure molding process is used to produce complex-shaped carbon fiber components that are lighter, stiffer and stronger than similar components made from aluminum. This technology is used in critical performance parts such as Maestro Suspension rocker links.
Four strategically positioned pivot points and two linkages all work together to create a single floating pivot for the most active, efficient and independent suspension system on the trail.
Giant’s original oversized fork steerer tube technology. Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance, the system’s oversized headset bearings (1 1/4” lower and 1 1/8” upper for road, 1 1/2” lower and 1 1/8” upper for mountain) and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness.
