There's nothing like the feeling of riding a classic hardtail, except this – trusted XtC design updated for bang up to date 27.5 wheels. Race it, win it, love it.

With its ALUXX SL frameset and 27.5 geometry, the XtC 27.5 blends quickness and control. The proprietary ALUXX SL alloy from Giant's own forging facilities is stiffer and lighter than 6061-series aluminum, while PowerCore – a massively oversized bottom bracket/chainstay area with fully integrated 86mm BB and asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside for unprecedented pedalling stiffness.
