Built to go faster. Whether you’re climbing cornering or launching an attack this all-new composite road racer is made for that moment. Lightweight efficient and integrated for speed it’s engineered to give you a competitive edge in every situation. MADE FASTER Newly integrated components including the Contact AeroLight stem create a sleeker more aero profile. The Variant seatpost adds just enough compliance for a balanced race-tuned feel on the road while generous tyre clearance up to 33mm and compliant wheels keep you rolling with speed on smooth or bumpy roads. Key Performance Factors SYSTEM OPTIMISATION The frameset wheels cockpit and other parts were engineered developed and tested together to perform as a system. The all-new Contact AeroLight stem allows for cable routing that integrates the top cap cables and spacers in a more aerodynamic user-friendly setup. WINNING EFFICIENCY Featuring a greater stiffness-to-weight ratio than the previous generation along with new aero tube shaping and a lighter overall weight this uncompromising race bike delivers explosive acceleration and unyielding pedalling stiffness. The result is race-winning performance in the moments that count. INTEGRATED AERODYNAMICS All tube shapes were engineered and developed using Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD modelling and wind-tunnel testing. From the truncated ellipse shape of frameset tubing to a new cockpit design and component integration it all adds up to a more streamlined profile that improves overall aero performance compared to the previous generation. Advanced Composite Technology Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction. Compact Road Design Introduced by Giant with the professional Team ONCE in the 1990s Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward sloping toptube from the headtube to the seattube creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit. Tubeless System Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother faster ride. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.

Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight but in reality weight can vary based on size finish hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality. Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy throughout this website. However Giant reserves the right to change bike specifications features prices and colours without prior notice.
