The Giant Fathom bikes are known as 29ers, indicating the wheel size of 29". The largest of 3 sizes used in adult mountain bikes and the perfect size for trail riding.
The Fathom 2 and Fathom 1, each come in 4 different frame sizes to suit riders of various heights. Confirming the correct size is typically done in-store where we can asses the best fit for your physical size.
As riders ourselves, we completely understand why many riders, especially those with some experience want/need/must have, a bike, that is that bit better than most others going around. Better gears, better brakes, better suspension, better handling and better overall quality. This "better" level, is where the Giant Fathom slides in.
Each Giant Fathom is made from aluminium, which Giant refer to as ALUXX SL. This level of aluminium is both lighter and stiffer than that used on Giant’s mid-level and entry-level mountain bikes, like the Giant Talon and Giant ATX. The advantage with ALUXX SL is lighter weight and better off-road handling.
Both Giant Fathom mountain bikes come standard with tubeless wheels. This means there is no tube inside the tyre. A sealant is there instead. When you experience a puncture, the sealant inside the tyre instantly seals any cut up to 3mm in size. No tyre levers or getting stranded on the side of the road necessary.
