The Anthem X Advance SL is a genuinely rapid and responsive bike. It hits the design brief with minimal lag when you stamp on the pedals and ask it to go.

Well, at least with cable routing like that I’d feel less inclined to work on the bike myself and thus negate the warranty…

You are probably an armchair mechanic that just goes off negative remarks from other armchair mechanics. HT cabling is not difficult to work on in practice.

Yeah, OK. You know me so well.

You must be new here. My comment related to the history Giant have in denying warranty if anyone other than a Giant dealer does any work on their bike:
