Alex Evans
A capable, well-specced ride that requires rider confidence to eke out the most from its firm chassis
Pros
- Great spec on paper, confident-feeling bike
Cons
- Can be harsh on bumps, some parts aren’t as good as they look
Buy if... You like big XC rides and want some harsh-terrain survivability
Pros
- Supple, grippy high-volume tyres
- Eagle drivetrain is geared just right
Cons
- High BB makes cornering awkward
- Flexy fork
- Dreadful brakes
Michael Biernoth
"A positive surprise: The Giant Fathom 2 may seem unremarkable components-wise, but it proves its worth on the trail. The most comfortable frame in the comparison test meets the great performance of the Crest suspension fork..."
Pros
- High frame comfort
- Worry-free adjustable seatpost with 150mm travel
- Performance of the suspension fork
- Lightest bike in the test
Cons
- Only 10 gears
- Weak brakes
