I'm really looking for a price check on the frame only...what are the differences between the '06 and '07 carbon frames?

carbon xtc

The only difference between the 06 and 07 xtc frames is the paint scheme. I actually am selling my 06 carbon frame for 750 if anyone is interested.

I'm selling mine too...I just ordered an anthem
mine is 2007 ,$700.00

you're already selling your 07 xtc frame? they just came out not too long ago. Are you going to try and get the anthem advanced?

IMO, Giant have beefed up their XTC carbon frames for 2007. A 2007 19" XTC C0 frame weighs 1440g including seatclamp, hanger and bolts.

hmm, interesting. is it stiffer this year or what?

Yup, I think i was one of the first people to get the 07 xtc team carbon in the eastcoast. I actually just rode it 5 times and I loved it, its the best hardtail I have ever ridden, super light and stiff. I was going to keep it but I got a really good deal on an anthem, and here in Florida all we have is roots and rocks, so I think I'll do better with the anthem. If you live anywhere where you have climbs, the XTC will rule, my bike weighs 20.9 lbs, I could easily 1 1/2 pounds off. But like I said here in Florida there is no climbs.

MSRP on the 2007 XTC carbon frameset is $1500.

Yup, I'm going to lose a bundle of money...I'm selling it for $700.00
