Giant Fathom 29

A shop favorite! Why? This is one of the lightest bikes on the market in this price range that is more designed for aggressive trail use than an XC bike. What does that mean? A geometry (and longer travel fork) that is more confident, especially when things start getting spicy (compared to an XC bike), yet with a weight that still gives that light, nimble acceleration that many people crave when buying a hardtail
