The 2018 model is specked with a combination of Shimano Deore and Alivio, in a 2 x 9 setup with Deore rear derailleur, Alivio Shifters and FSA Comet 26/36 crankset. The crank is from Praxis, the Cadet Boost ( ) with a 30 teeth chain-ring (if you don’t know what all this means check out our article “decoding the gears” ). In the 2019 model, shifting is taken care of by Shimano’s trusted Deore setup (in 1 x 10 guise) which obviously includes the Deore rear derailleur, Deore 10 speed cassette (11 teeth on the smallest cog up to 42 teeth on the largest cog), and the Deore 10 speed shifter. The specs:Ĭommencing with the “features”, one of the first items people tend to look at are the gears. The differences between in the 2018 v/s 2019 models are specified in the specs discussed below. You may also consider the 2018 model with retails for USD 30 less (and you might well be able to pick one up for less, with the clearing out of older stock). How much money exactly? The bike currently retails for USD 1,100 (you can double check the latest MSRP for the bike on the official product page here). Moving on to the bike itself, on first impressions you get A LOT of bike for your money. How does the 2019 Giant Fathom 29er 2 stacks up in the competitive entry level performance XC market?įirstly, you get the peace of mind that you will be buying a bike with the backing of arguably the largest bike manufacturer in the world, with all the product guarantees (Giant offers a lifelong guarantee on all their frames), scientific research, distribution support etc. If you are in the market for a mountain bike in the region of USD 1,000 and are looking for a bike that’s a more racy and less recreational, the Giant Fathom 29er 2 would most likely have come up in your searches. And I have not regretted it for one second! I got the 2018 edition, but the 2019 edition is now available. In fact, when I was recently in the market for an entry-level XC bike and looking at a bunch of bikes, I decided to get the Giant Fathom 29er 2. Ever since I have been a big fan of Giant bikes. I grew up riding a Giant mountain bike….and I still have it! The bike is almost indestructible!! It is an old Giant Yukon that is probably close to 20 years old…but it still rides like the day I got it.
