Giant XTC SLR 2 29 bike
ALUXX SLR aluminum frameThe XTC SLR frame is the lightest aluminum MTB frame Giant has ever produced, thanks to the premium ALUXX SLR alloy and an advanced weakening process - the ALUXX SLR tubes are 20% thinner (and thus lighter) than the ALUXX SL tubes. By combining top-quality material and the most modern manufacturing processes, they can produce frames that are extremely light, but at the same time highly rigid and strong.
High efficiency and great controllability
The frame is designed and constructed so that its stiffness-to-weight ratio has no competition in its class, which is reflected in the high pedaling efficiency and precise control of the wheel in all circumstances. The specific sport-tuned geometry of the frame offers an ideal balance of stability and controllability on all types of XC terrain.
Safety in the field
The Giant Crest 34 RRL air fork provides 100mm of travel and is equipped with handlebar lockout. For better driving characteristics and less risk of a defect, the Giant XCT 29 wheels are tubeless directly from the factory, you just need to apply a sealing compound. If you would like to have even more confidence on descents and technical passages, you can fit the bike with a telescopic seatpost (diameter 30.9 mm).
Especially suitable for sports enthusiasts who like to spend time on wheels after work or over the weekend. Suitable for regular riding, from cycle paths, fields and forest roads to moderately demanding terrain. Usually fitted with components that are the golden middle when it comes to reliability and durability.

All bicycles at the MTBIKER shop are new, not-ridden, from an official distributor and with a full warranty. Several brands even offer a lifetime warranty on the frame after registration. We perform all warranty services in MTBIKER stores after personal delivery or after sending the bike (or its part) by courier.
- The bicycle is taken out of the manufacturer's box
- The bicycle is assembled, inspected and adjusted (front and rear derailleur, shock, fork, wheels,...)
- The bicycle is carefully packed back into a box and shipped
- If you order a bicycle for in store pick up or home delivery, the bicycle will be waiting put together, checked and ready to use for you.
- If you order a bicycle via courier to your home address, the following must be done at home:
- Take the bike out of the box and carefully remove safety material and foils
- Mount handlebar to stem (1 minute, 4 or 5 mm hex hey is needed).
- Mount front wheel to fork (1 minute, without the need of any tools if the bike has a quick release).
- Loosen the screws in the headset, straighten the stem with the front wheel, tighten the upper screw on the fork and then tighten the headset (2 minutes, 4 or 5 mm hex key is needed).
- Mount the pedals to the cranks while lubricating the thread and carefully mounting it the right way (1 minute, 8 mm hex key or 15 mm wrench).
- Mount seatpost to frame (10 seconds, without needing any tools if the frame has a quick link).
- Inflate the tyres or fork and shock to desired pressure (2 minutes, pump needed).
- Check the tightening of hex keys and quick-releases (2 minutes, 4 and 5 mm hex key is needed).
- Go for a test drive! Handle your bicycle carefully until you get used to it. If the bike has disc brakes, their performance will be limited from now on - they will gain their full power after 4-5 strong brakes at higher speed.
