Giant Anthem W Womens Mountain Bike Review
Are you looking for a women’s mountain bike that delivers on frame and fork as well as coming with great components right from the start? Then the Giant Anthem W is the bike for you. Reviewers felt that this was not a stripped-down version of a better guy’s bike, but a bike made for women that men can respect — and may even drool over.
The bike comes with high-quality brake levers, shifters, front fork and a rear shock that is as adjustable as almost any woman that rides it. A comfortable saddle means that even when new, you will feel like you’ve been riding this bike for years – an inherent sense of comfort that comes from the saddle as well as the rear shock and absence of any pedal bob. Even a beginning mountain bike rider will find that the drops are less scary when there’s a Giant Anthem W under her to help stick the landing.

After the initial dial-in, the front and rear are well balanced and the bike has good suspension overall. The Giant Anthem W also has a Pro-Pedal feature and a front fork lockout, making uphill stretches less intense and easier to cycle through without excessive fatigue.

Our reviewer loved that she did not have to fight the bike while taking it through a rough trail. The responsiveness was second to none. The Giant Anthem W began to feel like an extension of her body rather than a bike, which made climbs and drops much easier to navigate successfully.
