Expirience with the Giant ANTHEM ADVANCED 2

Ludwig Döhl The new ANTHEM ADVANCED 2 convinces with a modern approach. 110 mm of travel on the fork proves that Giant knows exactly what most bikers want: fun on the descent! With 11,2 kg, the Racebike von Giant counts towards the lighter bikes in this price range. The competitors are sometimes heavier. Giant is taking no risks when it comes to its bike handling. The moderate geometry data conveys a balanced handling. The view of the geometry data clearly reveals: the ANTHEM ADVANCED 2 has a sporty seating position. All in all, in the on long tours category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry. We like: 25 years warranty on the frame!
