Looking for a new bike but having a hard time deciding what route I should take.
Just get an Anthem X29er 0
Anthem X 29er 0 (2013) - Bikes | Giant Bicycles | Australia
Or Anthem X29er 3
Anthem X 29er 3 (2013) - Bikes | Giant Bicycles | Australia
With the following upgrades
Thundra 2 saddle
Wheelset (DT240+Crest)
Groupset: XT + XT Brakes
Lightweight rotors
Carbon Handlebar and carbon seat post
The Anthem X3 will be a few hundred dollars less than the 0 and with a better wheelset, brakes and carbon handlebar but would an Anthem X0 still be a better bike with X0 parts? I really like the color of the 0 but the CTD Fox fork with the possibility to run remote on both front and rear shock is tempting.
What would you do?
