    Word has it there is a show next week and bikes usually follow about 4-6 weeks later, but no one seems to have any info on the 2010 Anthem X's (or not that they're will to share), only stuff on the SL/SL0, prob be fitted with new fox rear shock i would expect and obligatory colour change.

    There's a new Giant store just opened in Bristol, I've been meaning to go over and take a look. I know they have some of the 2010 bikes in, but not sure what exactly. I'm not sure I want to see the new Anthems, just in case I prefer the colour schemes :lol:

    I reckon the 2010 Anthems will go like hot cakes. I've had stacks of people on the trails asking me about mine, which I'm guessing is down to all the good reviews they've been getting.

    Rumour has it the 2010 anthem will come with qr12 or qr15 a colour change and possibly a larger volume rear shock.

    won't be a big change that's for sure as giant only redevelop every two years so don't expect much.
    The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

    would that mean I'd need a converter for my hope pro3 hubs-or new hubs alltogether?? :?

    That's if I decide to get one....

    I reckon the frame is going to be the same as this year, will be interesting to see what has changed and what the price points will be!!!
