Malpiet Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 Thankx revolutionary point noted.. My cousin had his anthem frame replaced recently it cracked on the same place, dragons advised him that it was only a particular batch that was problematic, however it does seem like the problem its across board.
Jorrie Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 They'll want to replace it with a 650b : ) Johny Bravo 1
MrJacques Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 The new Anthem's and Trances seem to have a better top tube to seat tube connection: http://www.giant-bicycles.com/_generated/_generated_us/bikes/models/images/2000/2014/Anthem_27.5_3_RT.jpg
wonduhboy Posted November 14, 2013 Author Posted November 14, 2013 Just to give closure to this topic, Giant did indeed warranty the frame.Big thanks to Linden cycles (who didn't even sell me the bike) for handling it so well and quickly. 8 days from dropping it off I had my bike back.

Caerus Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Just to answer a quick question regarding warranties. What happens if I break both my Giant 26" frames and need to make a warranty claim, they will only replace them with a 29er or 650B now? So I'm screwed either way as I will have to fork out for two new forks and two wheelsets
johanpre44 Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 My seat kept moving down with the last trail seeker, after trying (via a hub post) to figure it out I also noticed a cracked frame. My frame was cracked on the seat tube just above the welds with maybe 10mm holding it together. Frame was a Silverback Stride (26" and 2012 model) warranty replacement was a 2013 frame (which needed new/different front derailleur and full gear cable outers), other than this I'm very happy with the final result. Owner of the LBS said its his first Silverback Frame replacement. Don't think its a General Problem with Giants, friend broke his Anthem a couple of years ago, but that was because of a very bad fall.
