Product Description
Giant’s first-ever composite 29er was developed to meet the demands of our professional racers. They asked for the stability and control of a 29er, but with razor-sharp handling. Made with Giant Composite Technology, the frame’s massive MegaDrive downtube and OverDrive headtube give it quick, precise steering. Asymmetrical chainstays boost traction and acceleration. Find new confidence, and speed, with XtC Composite 29er.

Strengths: stiff frame, adgile in singletrack, climbs wellWeaknesses: the wheels are a bit heavy, a little light in the front end,Bottom Line: this bike is lightning fast everywhere. I raced this bike, the only real problems with it is the fact the components are very mid-grade. I believe it faster than my 26" bike 90% of the race courses. I absolutely love this thing so far. It weights in at 25.5lbs stock except a truvativ noir flat bar.
Favorite Trail: any singletrack

Strengths: Stiff, fast, great handling, accelerates like a rocket. Very good bike for the price. Frame is more efficient than my aluminum road bike frame I reckon. Very upgradable. Looks cool.Weaknesses: Heavier than it needs to be (I blame the wheels), components could be better. They're not bad, but a bike of this caliber deserves the best.Bottom Line: Super fast hardtail. Unbeatable at the price. Buy it if you want a great 29er. Buy it if you want to save some cash and upgrade it to the best 29er.
Favorite Trail: South trails
Duration Product Used: 6 months
Purchased At: Down Wind Sports
Similar Products Used: Any fast 29er hardtail
Bike Setup: Stock with an ever-changing cast of tires. Recently replaced the X7 rear with an X9, everything else is X7. 39/26 rings.
