Built for racers obsessed with speed, performance, and control, the new Pique Advanced SL is engineered to deliver. Components are designed to work seamlessly together as one optimised system. The 120mm single-pivot FlexPoint Pro rear suspension is now semi-integrated with your top tube for a lighter, more efficient ride. And the flip chip lets you adjust your geometry for the course ahead and the fire inside.
Key Performance Factors
Built for speed
The new Advanced SL-grade composite frame is the lightest we’ve ever designed, achieving exceptional stiffness-to-weight so every pedal stroke returns power almost effortlessly, for swift and decisive acceleration and climbing. Tuned specifically for XC racing, the reengineered FlexPoint Pro Suspension is lighter, more compact, and more responsive.
Built for performance
The Pique Advanced SL is designed as a single optimised system. The new one-piece handlebar-stem with fully integrated cable routing keeps things light, clean, and responsive. Giant WheelSystems with Wide Guard rims give you robust sidewalls so you can run lower tyre pressure for extra grip and puncture protection.
Built for results
The updated FlexPoint Pro suspension system offers 120mm of smooth, active rear-wheel travel, paired with a 120mm fork, giving you the control and stability you need when things get technical. The two-position flip chip lets you adjust your geometry for the perfect handling for the course. And the suspension lock-out provides hardtail-like efficiency when you’re climbing a hill or a podium.

- Weight: The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
