Hardtail

Not everyone needs a razor-sharp hard tail mountain bike refined in World Cup and World Championship races. Sometimes a hard tail should be more fun than fast! Welcome to the Fathom 29 1! The Fathom 29 series of mountain bikes are built around a hydroformed ALUXX SL-Grrade aluminum frame that boasts a stable geometry for tackling technical trails and rocky descents. A slack head tube and generous suspension travel delivers confidence when the going gets steep! The ALUXX SL-Grade frame boasts light weight and high torsional strength, making every challenging stretch of singletrack more fun. A tapered OverDrive head tube helps keep the front wheel where you point it in technical terrain, while a press-fit bottom bracket anchors the crankset for flex-free power delivery. Internal cable routing adds a sleek look to the Fathom 29 1. An air-adjustable Crest 34 SL RCL suspension fork with 130mm (that was not a misprint) of travel helps keep the front wheel planted. The Fathom 29 1’s SRAM 12-speed Eagle drivetrain brings precise operation at your fingertips. An SX Eagle shifter is matched with an NX Eagle rear derailleur, shifting across an SX Eagle 11-50T cassette. An SX Eagle alloy crankset with a 30T single chainring does power delivery duty. Every component works in concert so you only have to think about the trail in front of you. Rugged tubeless alloy AM 29 wheels are wrapped with meaty Maxxis tubeless tires. The 29x2.5” tires feature an aggressive tread pattern for excellent control when charging through rock gardens and root “fun houses”. A 30mm wide rim helps to spread out the tread, improving control in high speed turns and under hard braking. Shimano hydraulic disc brakes deliver confident stopping power in all conditions, rain or shine. A Giant dropper post with a bar-mounted remote switch helps get the saddle out of the way on steep drop-ins. An alloy bar and stem combination completes the cockpit.

Riding on new trails. Exploring the backwoods. Catching the scenery. Have fun doing it. That's why Giant built the Fathom 1.

Giant's Fathom 1 was not built as a hardcore race machine. Could you race it? Sure! But it was built for the simple pleasure of off-road riding without overly complicated suspension and a high price tag. For most of us, that's plenty. The fit is a bit more upright, and the handling is stable and predictable; perfect for fun while getting dirty. Giant's ALUXX SL-Grade aluminum makes up the Fathom 1's frame, giving the bike a light feel, while offering rock-solid handling and power delivery. A tapered head tube adds and extra dash of handling precision, especially in tight and twisty singletrack. Internal cable routing gives the Fathom 1 a clean, sleek look. multiple bottle mounts add to the Fathom 1's versatility. An air-adjustable Giant Crest SL RCL suspension fork soaks up technical rock gardens with 130mm of travel. With a 66 degree head tube angle matched with the Crest 34, the Fathom 1 will bring confidence and control to every descent!

When Giant decided to equip the flagship of the Fathom line, they didn't mess around. SRAM's 12-speed SX Eagle shifter and rear NX Eagle derailleur deliver gear changes with lightning speed. An alloy SRAM SX Eagle crankset gets a 30T Direct Mount chainring, providing outstanding power transfer. A SRAM Eagle 11-50T cassette provides a massive gearing range for hilly trails on day-long rides. All this might seem like the component spec on a race bike, but it still makes perfect sense when you just want to enjoy the trails.

Big, meaty tires are what makes the Fathom 1 such a blast. Maxxis supplies the tubeless-ready Ardent Race 27.5x2.6" tires that bite into loose singletrack, gravel and mud with ease. Giant AM 27.5 tubeless alloy wheels anchor those tires with a 30mm interior width, bringing precise handling to twisty trails. Shimano BR-MT420 hydraulic disc brakes help reign in speed in all conditions, rain or shine (or mud). Giant's Contact Switch dropper post helps get the Romero saddle out of the way with a bar-mounted remote lever. An alloy Contact stem and handlebar finishes off the cockpit of this fun-loving machine.

Crank up steep climbs with smooth-rolling efficiency. Swoop down singletrack descents with stability and speed. This aluminum hardtail 29er features progressive trail geometry, a plush suspension fork, and dropper seatpost for the confidence you need to up your singletrack game.

The frame is optimized for a 130mm suspension fork for smooth control on the descents. An updated Giant WheelSystem comes with tubeless tires already set up, making it easy to experience added efficiency and control, plus a reduced risk of flats on technical terrain.

If you're an adventurer more than a racer, and want a hardtail mountain bike that's up for it, the Fathom 29 2 is ready.

The Fathom 29 2 is built around a light ALUXX-SL aluminum frame, ensuring excellent handling, climbing and pedaling response. A tapered OverDrive head tube adds a precise feel in tight and twisty singletrack, while a press-fit bottom bracket ensures flex-free power delivery. The slack 66 degree head tube angle makes every technical descent less tricky. Internal cable routing adds a clean look, too. With an air-adjustable Crest RCL suspension fork, the Fathom 29 2 can tackle rock gardens and technical terrain with confidence. The Crest RCL's 130mm of suspension travel handles rough rock gardens and stair-step descents much better than a short-travel XC fork. A 10-speed Shimano shifter operates a clutch-equipped Shimano Deore rear derailleur, adding fingertip precision to every gear change on the Fathom 29 2. Tektro supplies the hydraulic disc brakes and meaty 180mm rotors, adding excellent stopping power even in wet and muddy conditions. 30mm wide alloy 29'er wheels are shod with tubeless 29x2.5" Maxxis tires, boasting considerable grip over gravel, dirt and mud.
