2026 Giant Anthem Advanced SL World Champion Frameset – Own the Legend
Now you can ride the same frameset that carried Alan Hatherly to the 2025 XCO World Championship title. The limited-edition Anthem Advanced SL World Champion Frameset features race-winning engineering and exclusive graphics — only 100 individually numbered and signed framesets will ever be produced. This is more than a frame — it’s a piece of mountain bike history.
World-Championship Performance
Built with a fully reengineered Advanced SL-grade composite frameset, this Anthem delivers elite-level stiffness and low-latency power transfer for explosive acceleration and climbing efficiency. The semi-integrated Fox Factory Float SL rear shock—identical to Hatherly’s world title setup—combines light weight with precision damping. The included Fox Twin-Stick remote controls both shock lockout and dropper post functionality with race-ready efficiency.
FlexPoint Pro Suspension – 120mm of Control
The groundbreaking FlexPoint Pro suspension system provides 120mm of smooth, active rear travel, keeping your traction and momentum locked in across rough terrain. It’s paired with a two-position flip chip, giving you adjustable geometry:
High Setting: Sharper head and seat tube angles, higher bottom bracket — ideal for aggressive XC handling and technical climbs.
Low Setting: Slightly slacker geometry and lower bottom bracket — offering more control on fast descents and rough courses.
System Integration for World-Level Precision
The frameset includes the all-new Contact SLR XC Integrated handlebar/stem, crafted from composite material for minimal vibration and added comfort. With clean internal cable routing, 780mm width, and stem options from 60–80mm, it delivers pro-level cockpit integration, control, and setup versatility.
