built for riders who want xc speed with trail-ready capability, the pique x advanced sl 2 blends efficiency and fun. its advanced sl-grade composite frame pairs 120mm of flexpoint pro rear travel with a longer-travel 130mm fork, integrated down tube storage, and a flip chip for adjustable geometry — all designed to work as one system.
BUILT FOR SPEED: Advanced SL Composite Technology keeps the frame light and stiff, with FlexPoint Pro suspension semi-integrated under the top tube and isolated from frame flex for efficient pedalling. A two-position flip chip lets you steepen the geometry for racing or slacken it for stability on the way down.
BUILT FOR CAPABILITY: A 130mm Fox 34 SL Performance fork adds extra travel up front for confidence on technical descents, while integrated down tube storage gives you a tool roll for tubes, tools, and snacks without reaching for a pack. Giant XCA alloy WheelSystem wheels run Wide Guard hookless rims for lower tyre pressure and extra puncture protection.
BUILT FOR RESULTS: Maxxis Rekon and Rekon Race tyres balance grip and rolling speed front to rear, while Shimano SLX 4-piston brakes with 203mm front and 180mm rear rotors give you confident stopping power on longer descents. A Giant Contact Switch AT dropper post lets you move the saddle out of the way the moment the trail turns technical.
