Giant Anthem Advanced SL 2
The Giant Anthem Advanced SL 2 is the full-suspension carbon XC mountain bike developed for modern cross-country racing and inspired by the platform that carried Alan Hatherly to the 2025 Elite XCO World Championship title. The completely redesigned frame is 89 grams lighter than the previous generation and improves the stiffness-to-weight ratio by 7.95%, offering maximum climbing efficiency and immediate power transfer. The semi-integrated rear shock in the top tube reduces overall weight and allows for the installation of a second bottle cage, making the Anthem Advanced SL perfect for XC and marathon racing.
FlexPoint Pro 120mm Suspension and Adjustable Geometry
At the heart of the Giant Anthem Advanced SL 2 is the 120mm FlexPoint Pro suspension system, paired with a 120mm fork, which delivers smooth, responsive handling on technical descents and challenging climbs. An integrated flip chip allows you to adjust the geometry to tailor the Anthem Advanced SL 2 to any cross-country course, improving stability and steering precision. Giant WheelSystems wheels with 120-tooth helical ratchet system ensure lightning-fast engagement and direct power transmission, while 5mm rim walls increase resistance to impacts and punctures.
Total Integration and Absolute Control
The Anthem SL is completed with an integrated monocoque cockpit (Contact SLR XC Integrated carbon or Contact SL XC Integrated alloy, depending on the build) with fully internal cable routing. This solution improves aerodynamics, comfort, and precision, reducing vibrations and increasing control during the most intense phases of the race. With a standard width of 780 mm and 50 to 90 mm stems, the Anthem Advanced SL 2 is a fast, modern, and race-ready carbon XC mountain bike.

Let customers speak for us
Ottimo servizio e comunicazione! Prodotto come da descrizione !!
Prodotto con imballaggio perfetto, arrivato in neanche 48 ore dall'ordine.
Ottimo venditore, la merce è arrivata puntuale ed tutto è andato bene.
Come da titolo, a partire dalle comunicazioni con il titolare, sempre rapide e precise, fino alla ricezione, spedizione velocissima ed imballo molto curato, è stata un' esperienza d'acquisto gradevolissima.
I am from Germany and was looking for a gravel bike. It must be small (me 160cm) and light should be. It's not easy to find something suitable. And there it was, but many miles away from me. No chance to test. No possibility of personal advice. But I communicated everything with Massimiliano Novocicli.com via WhatsApp, asked questions and got answers directly. It was also a direct trust from my side. Professional competence, service and offer were perfect. So I bought the bike. Over and over again. I can make a big recommendation.
Velocissimi e serietà
Ottimo servizio e ottimo supporto da parte di Massimiliano che si mostra fin da subito attento e professionale. Da parte mia ho acquistato on line una bici di un certo valore e tutto e’ andato più che bene, come previsto. Consiglio il negozio e l’esperienza
Even better looking in reality and performs really nice 👍
Il frameset che ho acquistato è davvero bellissimo — ancora più impressionante dal vivo che nelle foto. La qualità della lavorazione e l’attenzione ai dettagli sono eccezionali, e sono davvero molto soddisfatto del mio acquisto.
Vorrei anche sottolineare il supporto impeccabile fornito da Massimiliano durante tutto il processo. È stato estremamente disponibile, sempre rapido nelle risposte e molto competente nel fornire tutte le informazioni di cui avevo bisogno. Anche durante un piccolo ritardo nella spedizione, la comunicazione è sempre stata chiara e rassicurante.
Nel complesso, posso consigliare con convinzione questo negozio a chiunque cerchi prodotti di alta qualità e un servizio clienti davvero professionale.
Grazie di cuor
Volevo acquistare la propel. Ho chiamato per tutte le info (misure spedizione montaggio) e sono stai sempre super disponibili. Bici arrivata imballata alla perfezione e praticamente già tutta montata e regolata. Montata in 15 minuti.
CONSIGLIATISSIMO
Un po lunga la consegna ma nel complesso tutto ok, articolo perfetto
Cliente ormai da qualche anno, servizio impeccabile
Massimiliano sempre disponibile ad ogni mia richiesta/esigenza
Malgrado il tempo di attesa per ricevere il prodotto molto lungo,dovuto a carenze di magazzino,ho dato il massimo per comunicazioni tempestive aggiornate e disponibili per qualsiasi soluzione e l' omaggio finale per la pazienza dimostrata.
Ho comprata una bici usata, trattativa semplice, veloce, dal primo contatto mi hanno fatto sentire delle buone sensazioni.
Affare concluso e bici come da aspettative; super professionali.
Prezzo in offerta da non perdere ed qualità materiale ottima. Spedizione un po lunga ma il cliente alla fine trattato sempre molto bene. Bravi!
