Giant 2023 Fathom 29 1
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.
