Giant Anthem X2 Mountain Bike Review
Wednesday, July 7th, 2010
The Giant Anthem X2 is a line of mountain bikes that are a little more tuned towards trails as opposed to racing.

You would think that the Giant Anthem X2’s long travel would make the bike slower, but the X2 goes full speed like a racer with good handling.
