Winning race bikes have just the right balance of light weight, stiffness and smooth compliance on the road. TCR Advanced delivers on all three and adds updated aero performance
Key Performance Factors
Class-leading efficiency
Lightweight composite materials and tubing shapes result is a lively ride quality, explosive acceleration and improved climbing efficiency with greater torsional frame stiffness than key competitor bikes.
Advanced aerodynamics
This is where the TCR’s most quantifiable gains can be found compared to previous generation models. Every tube shape was analysed, engineered and tested to create an overall structure with significantly lower drag at a wider range of yaw angles.
Total control
A composite fork delivers torsional stiffness for sharp handling and steering precision. And a Giant WheelSystem with tubeless technology allows you to run lower tyre pressures for increased grip and a reduced risk of punctures.
