Giants commitment to design and development shines through in the entirely redeveloped Giant Defy Advanced SL 0. This bike is the flagship bike in Giant’s on road endurance category and as with the Avail range, the Defy’s frame now has some impressive new features.
This bike suits a rider who:
Doesn’t necessarily want a race bike and the low geometry that comes with it, but a super comfortable road bike.
This bike loves riding:
Long sessions that are to be enjoyed versus aggressive efforts. If there’s hills, then it’s even more in its element!
Stand-out features:
- Advanced SL level composite frame – Giant’s lightest road frame ever built
- Hydraulic disc brakes for consistent feel and greater braking performance across all weather conditions
- 22-speed Dura-Ace Di2 groupset – offering compact gearing that makes getting up those steeper hills that bit easier
- D-Fuse integrated seatpost designed to flex a little bit to provide rider comfort as well as reduce overall weight somewhat
You’d buy this bike if….:
You were after a super comfortable road bike for taking out into the hills or over challenging terrain. Equally you’d buy this bike if your back is usually the first part of your body to complain after lengthy hours in the saddle – the more upright positioning takes a lot of strain off.
