OTHER
Weight The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All Giant bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.

Giant TCR Composite: light and agile for the race to the top. Sharp and responsive in corners and descents. Pure performance road bike for every day of the week.

2013 Giant TCR Composite carbon road bike is a direct descendent of the bikes ridden by Rabobank pros. The best road bike for aggressive performance characteristics and smooth ride quality – lightweight and stiff, yet still compliant for long days in the saddle. Giant’s PowerCore bottom bracket area and asymmetric chainstays produce maximum pedalling efficiency. Its OverDrive steerer tube technology adds front-end stiffness and steering precision and it’s RideSense-ready, for use with Giant’s ANT+ compatible wireless bike computer.
