2011 Giant Anthem X 29er

Singletrack has posted some photos and info on Giant’s 2011 line up. The Reign, Trance X and Anthem X will see significant frame updates for the next model year but I‘m only really interested in the Anthem X 29er. Final geometry, pricing and other models in the Anthem X 29er range remain to be seen. As far as looks go, I think the polished, black and blue colour combination looks stunning.

Features include:
- Giant’s excellent Maestro rear suspension
- 100mm (4in) travel front and rear
- Giant’s Overdrive tapered head tube
- A PowerCore press-fit bottom bracket
- Post Mount front and rear
- Space for a 2.3in rear tire
- 2395g claimed frame weight
- Fox fork with 15mm through axle and tapered steerer
- 3x10 Dyna-Sys Shimano XT

The Anthem 29er looks to be an excellent bike. As with you, if my funds stretched far enough, I'd be lining up at my local Giant reseller.
