With theXTC Advancedoffers responsive ride quality and maximum efficiency on fast, flowy singletrack. This lightweight hardtail bike is a great choice for XC racing or KOM hunting.
DETAILS
Lightweight and responsive: A hand-built Advanced-Grade-Composite frameset gives XC racers and riders a competitive edge when climbing, accelerating, and sprinting.
XC efficiency: The frame is designed with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio, translating into efficient pedaling power and precise handling on the trail.
Customized for every rider: Each frame is individually sized, with custom composite layouts created to optimize vertical compliance and provide a smoother ride on XC terrain.
Advanced Composite Technology: GIANT utilizes high-performance carbon fiber to craft this special carbon frame material, woven and processed in-house to achieve an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front frame triangle is formed as a single piece, employing modified monocoque construction that eliminates the outer braided composite layer. This reduces weight without compromising ride quality, stability, or stiffness.
Overdrive Oversized Steerer: Engineered for precision steering, the design features extra-large headset bearings (1 1/4" bottom, 1 1/8" top for road; 1 1/2" bottom and 1 1/8" top for mountain) and a tapered steerer tube to deliver optimal front-end stiffness.
Tubeless System: GIANT's Tubeless System offers fewer punctures, better traction, and reduced rolling resistance. It simplifies mounting and enhances the riding experience with added fun.
