Unleash your sprint with 200 meters to go. Close a gap, chase back, and launch a solo attack. This new aero road machine is made for the moments that count. More aero, more adjustable, more ways to win. Key Performance Factors: - Integrated aerodynamics AeroSystem Shaping, a result of CFD analysis and dynamic wind-tunnel testing, optimizes aerodynamic performance at every yaw angle. The truncated ellipse airfoil tube shapes produce outstanding overall aero performance. - Easier adjustability All-new cable routing through the handlebar and frame makes it quicker and easier to adjust or change cockpit components and fine-tune performance and riding position. - Race-winning efficiency Advanced SL-grade composite frameset features Giant’s pro-level composite materials and manufacturing processes. The result is 225 grams of weight savings compared to the previous generation and an even greater stiffness-to-weight advantage. Techs and Features: - Advanced SL Composite Technology Professional-grade raw carbon fiber is woven in our composite factory to produce our lightest, stiffest, and highest-quality frames. This is the technology used by Giant’s pro racers in almost every cycling discipline. - Aerosystem Shaping Technology Through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and wind-tunnel data, engineers optimize each tube shape to deliver superior aerodynamic performance. - OverDrive Aero Found inside the head tube of the Propel and Defy ranges, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easier-to-service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.
