Giant XTC SLR 29 1 2022 Bike

Hammer up climbs, accelerate on smooth single track, carry your speed as the trail dips and dives. This lightweight aluminium 29er delivers efficiency and balanced control.

Features

Lightweight acceleration: The lightest aluminium hardtail mountain bike frameset Giant has ever produced helps XC riders and racers climb and accelerate with speed.

Unyielding efficiency: With a best-in-class stiffness-to-weight-ratio, the all-new XtC SLR 29 sets the new standard for alloy-XC efficiency.

29er confidence and control: Larger 29-inch diameter wheels roll over rough terrain with balance and stability, giving you the momentum to tackle technical climbs and the confidence to fly on fast singletrack descents.

Technologies

• Aluxx Slr Aluminium Technology: This superlight Pro level aluminium material is made predominantly from 6011 alloy and delivers the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any Giant aluminium frameset. State-of-the-art microscopic grain manipulation and advanced butting allow for 20 percent thinner and lighter tube shapes than ALUXX SL framesets.
• Over Drive: Giant’s original oversized fork steerer tube technology. Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance, the system’s oversized headset bearings (1 1/4″ lower and 1 1/8″ upper for road, 1 1/2″ lower and 1 1/8″ upper for mountain) and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness.
• Tubeless System: Fewer flat tyres. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
