With the 29-inch wheels, the Anthem Advanced 1 maintains stability at high speeds, while a longer reach and modified cockpit improve rider balance.

Ideal for cross-country racers and riders who prioritise efficiency, control, and stability, the Anthem Advanced 1 combines modern geometry and cutting-edge suspension to give a responsive and fast ride on mixed courses.
