At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Giant FATHOM E+ 2 PRO [29"/625WH] ⬤ in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) ⬤.

The good SR Suntour fork dampens small and medium bumps confidently when mountain biking. Taking a holistic approach also includes looking at the gearing and components. The components are of good qualtiy and offer no reason for criticism here. The handling of the bike is pleasantly balanced due to the moderate geometry. This allows you to intuitively control the bike over the trails. The low bottom bracket height is a party pooper for the handling on the trail. On other bikes, you are more centrally located behind the handlebar. Too steep and technical uphills are less the comfort zone of the FATHOM E+ 2 PRO. On bikes with a steeper seat angle and longer chainstays, it is much more relaxed to climb in demanding terrain. Hell yeah, the geometry is killer! Here the know-how of the Giant developers is videly visible.

Conclusion

Expirience with the Giant FATHOM E+ 2 PRO [29″/625WH]

Friends of gravity should jot down the FATHOM E+ 2 PRO. With a very good geometry and a good fork, the Giant is a real trail rocket for flowy trails. But a poor brake system are of course points of criticism that one should be aware of before purchasing. Check the geometry table carefully before buying: The FATHOM E+ 2 PRO sizing runs big. With 25 years of warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
