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 butting process – ALUXX SLR tubes are 20% thinner (and thus lighter) than ALUXX SL tubes. By combining top-quality material and the most modern manufacturing processes, they are able to produce frames that are extremely light, yet highly stiff and strong.
High efficiency and great control
The frame is designed and constructed so that its stiffness-to-weight ratio is unrivaled in its class, which translates into high pedaling efficiency and precise wheel control in all conditions. The specific sport-oriented frame geometry offers an ideal balance of stability and controllability on all types of XC terrain.
Confidence in the terrain
The Giant Crest 34 RRL air fork provides 100 mm of travel and is equipped with a handlebar lockout. For better riding characteristics and a lower risk of punctures, the Giant XCT 29 wheels are tubeless-ready from the factory, just apply sealant. If you want even more confidence on descents and technical sections, you can equip the bike with a dropper seatpost (30.9 mm diameter).
Especially suitable for sporty enthusiasts who like to spend their time after work or on weekends on two wheels. Suitable for regular riding from cycle paths, field and forest roads to moderately demanding terrain. They are equipped with components that are the golden mean in the ratio of reliability and durability.
Aluminium frame
Lighter, relatively durable and stiff material that is affordable. The most widespread material for the production of bicycle frames.
Hydraulic disc brakes
Reliable in all conditions, better modulation of the braking effect with the use of less force on the lever. Heavier weight, more demanding service.
Air fork
The best option in terms of weight and comfort. Provides more adjustment options (rebound, compression). Requires regular service - the service cycle is specified by the manufacturer.
29” wheels
The advantage is better terrain passability, better rolling and traction. However, they are heavier, which also applies to tires.

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 packaged back into a box and shipped
- If you order a bike for in-person pick-up or home delivery, the bike will be waiting for you assembled and checked
- 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 seat post to frame (10 seconds, without needing any tools if the frame has a quick link).
- Inflate the tires 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.
