Crank up steep climbs with smooth efficiency. Swoop down singletrack descents with speed and confidence. This hardtail 29er delivers a balanced ride on XC terrain. Built on a lightweight ALUXX SL aluminium frame, Fathom 29 features balanced geometry for a stable ride quality. The frame is optimised for a 130mm suspension fork for smooth control on the descents. An updated Giant WheelSystem comes with tubeless tyres already set up, making it easy to experience added efficiency and control, plus a reduced risk of flats on technical terrain.
Trail tuned design: Balanced geometry with a 75-degree seattube angle puts the rider in a powerful pedalling position on climbs, while a slacker 66-degree head angle boosts confidence and control on technical descents.
Responsive handling: Lightweight ALUXX SL aluminium hardtail frame offers agile acceleration and maneuverability to help riders climb, corner and hammer the flats with efficiency and speed.
Smooth control: Giant Crest 34 suspension fork with 130mm of travel absorbs roots, rocks and ruts. Grippy, high-volume tyres boost traction on rugged terrain. And a dropper seatpost with handlebar remote lets you adjust saddle height on the fly for confident positioning on changing terrain.
