Just spent two days in South Wales on an Anthem X with 130s on the front. Great going down. Wanders like a goodun climbing.

Very, very naughty and quite silly too 😉
I've heard of some who have gone 120 and say its fun but 140 may be a stretch too far.

I've gone 120 which I find really helped the bike on the downs and didn't effect its uphill ability at all. I wouldn't go any higher though as giant won't warranty it , maybe 130 with a lot of sag but i'd say 140 is asking for trouble.

Ran mine 120 and it was bas ass. Did everything well but I wouldn't have gone to 140. 130 is about max I would go to.
