Buy If: You’re a newer rider on a tight budget seeking a high-value ride, with a comfortable ride position, to hit the trails with.Lows: Narrow handlebars, no suspension setup information, upright ride.Highs: The return of big hoops, great frame, air-sprung fork, lots of bike for the money.2017 sees a number of cross-country bikes being offered in the larger, 29er wheel, and such an example is the all-new intermediate hardtail, the Fathom 29er. Since then, the world’s largest bike manufacturer has stood firm with its choice of 27.5in wheels for all disciplines of mountain biking – until now. In a time where the big 29er hoops were winning in sales, it was a move that was tough to fathom (intended). It was 2013 when Giant made a big announcement that it believed 27.5in wheels, the middle choice, was the goldilocks of mountain biking. Big hoops and big value, see what we think of this intermediate hardtail. New model for 2017, the Fathom sees Giant return to the 29er wheel.
