The Giant Anthem Advanced 29 4 2025 in Mars Dust brings efficient carbon performance to cross-country trails and race-day adventures. With a full-composite frame, 100mm FlexPoint Pro rear suspension, a 110mm Giant Crest fork and Shimano Deore 12-speed gearing, it combines responsive climbing with confident handling on technical terrain.
Advanced-grade composite front and rear triangles create a lightweight, responsive platform for performance-focused riding. The frame is designed to balance pedalling stiffness with the control needed on demanding XC courses. A 75.5-degree seat tube angle supports an efficient climbing position, helping you maintain momentum on steep singletrack and longer uphill efforts.
Giant’s FlexPoint Pro system delivers 100mm of rear-wheel travel through a lightweight, linkage-driven single-pivot design. The Giant Crest rear shock is custom made for the Anthem and features a three-position lockout. This gives you options to adjust suspension behaviour as the route changes, balancing efficient pedalling with traction and comfort over rougher ground.
The Giant Crest 34 SL RRL fork provides 110mm of travel, a Boost 15x110mm thru-axle and remote lockout. Its three-position adjustment adds flexibility for climbing, rolling terrain and technical sections. Paired with the frame’s 67.5-degree head angle, it helps create a composed front end for navigating rough corners and descending with confidence.
Shimano Deore mechanical shifting keeps gear changes straightforward through a wide-range 1×12 drivetrain. A 32T Praxis Cadet chainring pairs with a 10–51T cassette, providing useful low gears for climbs alongside higher ratios for faster sections. The Deore Shadow+ rear derailleur helps control chain movement on uneven trails, supporting consistent drivetrain performance as you ride.
Giant XCT 29 alloy rims and Maxxis Aspen 29×2.4-inch tyres provide an XC-focused wheel and tyre setup. The larger wheels help carry momentum over uneven ground, while the tyre volume supports traction and comfort. Folding 120tpi casings, EXO protection and a tubeless setup complete a practical combination for regular training rides and cross-country events.
Shimano MT410 hydraulic disc brakes use a 180mm front rotor and 160mm rear rotor to deliver controlled stopping power. A Giant Contact Switch Core dropper seatpost lets you lower the saddle for technical sections and descents, creating more room to shift your weight. The small frame has 100mm of dropper travel, with 120mm on medium through extra-large sizes.
The Giant Contact XC Flat alloy handlebar and Contact SL XC stem use a 35mm clamp diameter to provide a solid steering platform. RockShox TwistLoc grips form part of the suspension control setup, keeping adjustment within easy reach. A Giant Grit Core saddle completes the contact points, supporting a balanced riding position for climbing, cornering and longer days on the trails.
The Giant Anthem Advanced 29 4 2025 suits XC riders seeking a full-suspension carbon bike for training, racing and fast recreational rides. It is a capable choice for cyclists who value efficient climbing, dependable mechanical shifting and the added control of a dropper seatpost. The Mars Dust finish gives this performance-focused bike a distinctive look on the trail.
