Made from Giant’s own Advanced-Grade Carbon Composite the Liv Obsess Advanced is an elite-level XC race bike that’s been purposefully designed to fit its 27.5 wheels.

The light and agile frame is the bike of choice for two-time world champion, Jolanda Neff, and it carries a PowerCore bottom bracket to make sure every pedal stroke is effective, whilst internal cable routing keeps everything clean.

A Shimano XT, Shadow+ rear derailleur supports SLX shifters while brake levers and discs are both SLX.

RRP: £1,999
