The Giant Anthem Full Suspension Mountain Bikes

2 minute read.

Welcome to Bicycle Warehouse, where we're all about having FUN on two wheels! In this blog post, we'll be talking about the Giant Anthem Mountain Bike and what type of rider it's best suited for.

The Giant Anthem is a full suspension mountain bike that's designed for cross-country (XC) riding, which means it's ideal for riders who love to tackle technical terrain at high speeds. This bike is not for the faint of heart, but rather for those who are looking for a thrilling ride and aren't afraid to push themselves to their limits.

Is the Anthem the right mountain bike for you?

So, who is the typical Giant Anthem rider? Well, they're often experienced mountain bikers who are looking for a high-performance bike that can keep up with their skills. They're not afraid of challenging climbs, steep descents, or tight switchbacks. They're always looking for the next trail to conquer and are never satisfied with playing it safe.

What sets the Giant Anthem Full Suspension Mountain Bike apart

One of the things that sets the Giant Anthem apart from other full suspension mountain bikes is its engineering. It's built with a full composite frameset, which makes it lightweight and stiff for quick, precise handling. The 29er wheels also make it easier to roll over obstacles and maintain speed on the trail.

But what really makes the Giant Anthem stand out is its FlexPoint Pro rear suspension system. This linkage-driven, single-pivot suspension allows for 100mm of rear travel and 110mm up front, which makes for a smooth and controlled ride on technical terrain. The shorter chainstays also improve climbing capabilities and overall agility, which means you can tackle any trail with confidence.

What do we like about it?

The new 29er-specific XC race geometry with a longer reach and a slacker headtube angle is another highlight of the Giant Anthem. This design allows for more stability at high speeds, while still maintaining the agility needed to navigate tight turns and switchbacks.

The new Giant Anthem is a truly modern XC bike built for modern XC riders. Not only has Giant produced a simpler and lighter chassis compared to its predecessor, it’s also brought the geometry right up to date. Along with the increase in travel and a brilliant parts package, this an exceptionally capable and well-rounded race bike.

So, if you're an experienced mountain biker who loves to push themselves to their limits on technical terrain, the Giant Anthem is the perfect bike for you. Its engineering and design make it a top contender for XC racing, and its lightweight and stiff frame make it a joy to ride on any trail.
