DetailsGiant Anthem Advanced SX 27.5 Complete Mountain Bike 2016
The Giant Anthem Advanced SX 27.5 Complete Mountain Bike bridges the gap between a cross country bike and a trail bike thanks to it's capable 4" of rear Maestro travel for fantastic climbing and more than capable descending ability. The RockShox Revelation fork bolsters the Maestro rear suspension with 120mm of plush travel, complemented by Giant's lightweight carbon front triangle that keeps the weight down for a fast, responsive ride. The Giant Anthem Advanced SX 27.5 Complete Mountain Bike is forged from a new era in bike building where speed and agility are combined with enough 'umph' to handle a surprising amount of gnarly terrain.
Product Details
Frame/Shock:
Advanced Composite Frame w/ ALUXX SL Rear Triangle: Giant's high performance-grade raw carbon fiber is used to produce custom composite material in Giant's own composite factory. Handcrafted, these frames are extremely lightweight, stiff and compliant.
120mm Maestro® Suspension: Whatever off-road adventures you seek, Giant's Maestro Suspension helps you make the most of your efforts. Control, traction, comfort, speed -- you get more of everything with Maestro. From fast and efficient XC bikes to long-travel downhill setups, Maestro is an adaptable full-suspension platform that offers smooth, active rear suspension for any type of trail and all kinds of terrain.
RockShox Monarch RT DebonAir: Featuring silky smooth travel in a new lightweight design, Monarch floats through bumps even better than before, turning rugged trails into tire-gripping velvet. The chassis is lean while maintaining the durability and adjustability needed to bite off huge chunks of burly trail action and epic cross country.
Shock Adjustments: 2 Position Compression (Open / Pedal) | External Rebound | Air Spring Pressure
Fork:
RockShox Revelation RL: Something good got even better. Winner of numerous magazine tests, RockShox upgraded Revelation with their new Motion Control DNA system. Now, the stiff and lightweight ultimate trail fork is even smoother and more responsive.
Adjustments: External Rebound | Low Speed Compression to 'Lock'
Drive Train:
SRAM X01 Shifter: Get sharp, dependable shifting with the SRAM X01 X-ACTUATION™ trigger shifter. Built for precise and swift shifting across SRAM's wide range 11-speed cassette, the X01 trigger shifter brings championship technology to everyone.
SRAM X01 Rear Derailleur: Thanks to its “horizontal parallelogram” design, X-HORIZON™ can keep the chain gap the same across all 11 gears. By taking vertical movement out of the equation, this design doesn’t just make shifting faster—it reduces shift force and eliminates ghost shifting. ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH™ technology reduces bounce and chain slap. CAGE LOCK™ technology makes wheel removal and installation easier than ever before. Paired with the X01 shifter, the X-HORIZON™ RD forms the backbone of X-ACTUATION™ technology: the key to totally smooth shifting action.
SRAM X01 32T Crankset: CNC machined 7075, two-tone anodized chainring built for total chain control. Each tooth’s thickness is CNC machined to fit better into the chain’s inner and outer links. X-SYNC™ tall, square tooth design provides maximum chain control. Sharp, narrow tooth profile and rounded chamfer edges help manage a deflected chain. Mud-clearing recesses for the inner chain links and rollers. Carbon arms with forged aluminum spider.
SRAM XG-1180 Cassette: The XG-1180 MINI CLUSTER™ hybrid cassette is light, durable and equipped with a 10-42 gear range that’s a perfect fit for any ride. MINI CLUSTER™ construction combines three small cogs that are CNC machined out of a single block of billet steel with an additional eight cogs that are individually pinned together.
Brakes:
SRAM Guide RS: Fast isn’t about pure speed, it’s about perfect speed. It’s about knowing the right line and having the confidence to ride it. Flawlessly. The new SRAM Guide RS is precision at your fingertips, with a proven 4-piston caliper and innovative SwingLink™ lever technology that gives you more positive pad contact and increased braking authority. Light, crisp, clean and now compliments your SRAM drivetrain. Go faster. Now featuring the World Championship-winning S4 caliper with Bleeding Edge™ and Heat Shield technologies.
