Take the high-value SRAM X1 & Pike build of the 2017 Anthem Advanced SX, grow the fork and dropper post travel, slack out the head tube angle, and throw on more aggressive rubber and you have Andrew Stone’s min-maxed Giant.

Giant Anthem Advanced Pro 29 1 review

Jun 2020 · Tom Marvin

A classic of the XC race world, but can it compete on modern terms?

Highs
  • Stay seated and it’s a rocket up the climbs

  • Smooth gears and a fast wheelset feel great

Lows
  • Lacks authority on more technical terrain, with a low-feeling, twitchy front-end

Giant Anthem Advanced Pro 29 (2018) review - MBR

Jan 2018 · James Bracey

The Giant Anthem Advanced Pro 29 is Giant's short (90mm) travel, carbon XC race weapon. Matched to a 100mm fork it delivers almost trail bike handling.

Highs
  • Exceptional handling prowess.

  • Component list.

Lows
  • The ride is a little too relaxed and soft for a true XC race bike.

  • Tricky getting the front end set to the right height.

[First Ride] Giant Anthem 29 Pro 0

Jun 2017 · Ian Collins

Giant invited us to their US office in Newbury Park, California to sample their revived efforts at an all out XC race weapon. Over the years, the Anthem has always been their shortest travel full suspension offering, but on a couple of occasions, particularly as of late – it has meandered away from its roots of being a dedicated XC race bike.
