This state-of-the-art aluminum material is made predominantly from 6011 alloy and delivers best-in-class strength-to-weight ratios. The frameset features unique welding technologies for a high-performance ride quality.
Get your dose of singletrack on a fun hardtail that puts you in control. The combination of a lightweight hardtail frame, 130mm suspension fork and 27.5 wheels with wide rims and high-volume tyres delivers loads of traction, speed and fun on the trail.
With its updated ALUXX SL aluminium frame, quick-handling 27.5 wheels and high-volume tyres, Fathom is a great choice for technical terrain and singletrack shredding. It blends the efficient ride quality of a classic hardtail with the confident ride quality of larger tyres that absorb bumps and give you more traction - so you can tackle rougher trails with total control. The frame is designed with trail-friendly geometry that includes a more relaxed head angle and a 130mm suspension fork.
Key Performance Factors
Trail Tuned Design
ALUXX SL aluminium frameset is hand-built in-house by the world leader in aluminium engineering.
Responsive Handling
Frame geometry is designed to optimise the confident, stable handling of plush high volume tyres (27.5x2.6), and is ideal for rugged, adventurous terrain.
Smooth Control
More relaxed frame geometry (compared to XC) and control-focused components deliver added control for trail riding conditions.
Aluxx SL Aluminum
Crest 34 Suspenion Fork
130mm travel fork is engineered with a lightweight twin air spring along with volume spacers to adjust performance for riding style and weight. State-of-the-art machining provides tight tolerances for low-friction fork action, and an adjustable damper system lets riders fine-tune the feel.
Internal Cable Routing
Derailleur, brake and dropper post cables are primarily routed internally integrated ports. This helps saves weight and creates a cleaner look and performance.
Contact Switch Dropper Post
Durable and hassle-free dropper post uses alloy air and oil cartridge for smooth, consistent saddle height adjustment (125mm for Small, 150mm for Medium, 170mm for Large and XL). Handlebar-mounted remote lever makes it easy to operate on the fly.
Forged Chainstay
New frame design provides maximum rear tire clearance for larger tire sizes. This design also results in a shorter rear-center frame measurement for progressive trail riding performance.
27.5 Wheels
Added frame and fork clearance allows for 27.5-inch diameter wheels with wide rims and grippy, high-volume 2.6-inch tires. This wheel setup offers the perfect blend of agility and control for more technical terrain.
Additional Bottle Mount
Bottle mounts on the underside of the downtube allow Medium, Large and XL frames to carry three bottles. Small frames can carry two bottles (one on top side of downtube and one below).
1X Drivetrain Setup
Frameset is designed specifically for a single chainring crankset, further maximizing clearance for high-volume rear tire.
Boost Technology
Wider hub spacing (110mm front/148mm rear) results in stiffer wheels for added control plus more tire clearance and an improved chainline for optimal drivetrain performance.
Giant Tubeless System
Integrated Tubeless WheelSystem and tires deliver improved efficiency, comfort and control in the most user-friendly and reliable system.
