Giant Anthem Advanced SL 1

The new Giant Anthem Advanced SL 1 represents the ultimate evolution of the carbon full-suspension XC mountain bike, developed on the platform that led to the 2025 Men's 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 superior climbing efficiency and instant response at every push. The semi-integrated rear shock in the top tube helps further reduce the overall weight and allows for the integration of a second bottle cage, a key detail in XC and marathon racing.

120mm FlexPoint Pro Suspension and Adjustable Racing Geometry

At the heart of the Giant Anthem Advanced SL 1 is the 120mm FlexPoint Pro suspension system, paired with a 120mm fork, designed to offer total control on today’s increasingly technical cross-country courses. The ride is smooth, responsive, and extremely efficient, ideal for tackling rough descents and challenging climbs with maximum traction. An integrated flip chip allows the Anthem Advanced SL 1 ’s geometry to be adjusted, tailoring the bike for fast or technical trails. Giant WheelSystems wheels with 120-tooth helical ratchet system ensure immediate engagement and direct power transmission, while 5mm reinforced sidewalls increase durability and race-ready reliability.

Total Integration and Driving Precision

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, stiffness, and a clean aesthetic, reducing vibrations and increasing control during the most intense stages of the race. With a standard width of 780 mm and stems from 50 to 90 mm, the Anthem Advanced SL 1 is a carbon XC mountain bike designed for those seeking maximum performance, lightweight design, and absolute precision in competition.
