ALUMINUM XC HARDTAIL XTC SLR 29 IS A MORE AFFORDABLE ALTERNATIVE TO THE CARBON MODELS XTC ADVANCED 29. IT IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE YOU WITH A GREAT BALANCE OF HIGH EFFICIENCY AND EXCELLENT HANDLING, WHICH IS THE RIGHT COMBINATION FOR PERFORMANCE AND RACING CROSS-COUNTRY.

MAIN ADVANTAGES
ALUXX SLR Aluminum Frame
The XTC SLR frame is the lightest aluminum MTB frame we have ever made, thanks to the premium ALUXX SLR alloy and advanced butting process – ALUXX SLR tubes are 20% thinner (and therefore lighter) than ALUXX SL tubes. By combining top-quality materials and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, we are able to produce frames that are exceptionally lightweight, yet highly rigid and strong.

High efficiency and excellent handling
The frame is designed and constructed to have an unmatched stiffness-to-weight ratio in its class, resulting in high pedaling efficiency and precise bike control in all conditions. The specific race-tuned frame geometry offers an ideal balance of stability and handling on all types of XC terrain.

Confidence in the field
The Giant Crest 34 RRL air fork provides 100 mm of travel and is equipped with a handlebar lockout. For better riding characteristics and a lower risk of punctures, Giant XCT 29 wheels come tubeless-ready straight from the factory; you just need to apply sealant. If you would like to have even more confidence on descents and technical sections, you can equip the bike with a dropper seatpost (diameter 30.9 mm).
