Giant Propel Advanced 1

Top-level road performance, right within your reach. It's light, it's efficient and it's smooth as silk.

Built with many of the same design philosophies as bikes ridden by Giant pros, TCR Composite delivers sharp handling and snappy acceleration with just enough compliance for racing and long training days. The PowerCore bottom bracket area and asymmetrical chainstays produce maximum pedalling efficiency. The OverDrive steerer tube technology, which features a tapered, oversized design, adds front-end stiffness and steering precision. The frame is RideSense ready, for use with Giant’s ANT+ wireless data transmitter.
