BREAK OUT OF THE BOX AND EXPAND YOUR ROAD RIDING ADVENTURES. FROM SMOOTH PAVEMENT TO BUMPY BACKROADS, THIS ULTRA-CAPABLE ROAD BIKE HAS BUILT-IN COMPLIANCE AND HIGH-VOLUME TIRES, SO YOU CAN RIDE ANY ROAD WITH CONFIDENCE AND CONTROL.
KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS
Balanced road geometry
Frame is specifically engineered to produce a balanced, all-rounder feel that blends confident rider positioning with agile cornering and acceleration.
Smooth ride quality
Innovative D-Fuse seatpost reduces road shocks and vibrations, and a Giant WheelSystem lets you run tubeless tires up to 38mm for a smoother ride quality and reduced risk of flats.
Total control
Seamless disc brake integration, including flat mounts and 12mm front and rear thru-axles, produces more consistent braking power for better control, even in wet weather and on rough roads.

WeightThe 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 our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
All prices and specifications are subject to change without notice.
