KEY FEATURES

Advanced-Grade Composite Frameset
Giant's Advanced-grade composite frame combines low weight, stiffness and engineered compliance, creating an efficient endurance road platform that remains comfortable over long distances.

Shimano 105 12-Speed Drivetrain
A dependable Shimano 105 mechanical 12-speed groupset provides smooth, precise shifting, with a compact 50/34T crankset and wide-range 11-36T cassette delivering versatile gearing for everything from fast flat roads to sustained climbs.

Engineered D-Fuse Compliance

Contact SL D-Fuse Handlebar
The ergonomically shaped handlebar features an 8-degree flare, providing a comfortable hand position and additional control when descending, cornering or riding over less-than-perfect road surfaces.

Shimano 105 Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Powerful Shimano 105 hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors front and rear deliver consistent, predictable braking performance across changing road and weather conditions.

32C Tubeless Tyres
Giant Gavia Fondo 1 700 x 32C tubeless tyres provide a smooth ride with excellent traction and reduced rolling resistance, while the bike arrives tubeless prepared.

Up To 38 mm Tyre Clearance
Generous clearance for tyres up to 38 mm gives riders the flexibility to increase comfort, grip and versatility depending on their preferred roads and riding style.


TECHNOLOGY

Advanced Composite Technology
Giant's high-performance carbon fibre and proprietary manufacturing techniques are used to create a frame with an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle is assembled and moulded as one continuous piece using Giant's Modified Monocoque Construction process.

D-Fuse Technology
The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar work together to help absorb road shocks and vibrations, improving comfort and reducing fatigue without relying on complicated suspension systems.

Compact Road Design
Giant's signature sloping top tube creates smaller front and rear frame triangles, helping reduce weight and increase stiffness while providing appropriate fit characteristics across the size range.

OverDrive
Giant's oversized tapered fork steerer system increases front-end stiffness for precise steering and confident handling.

Tubeless System
The tubeless-ready wheel and tyre system can help reduce the risk of punctures while providing improved traction, lower rolling resistance and a smoother ride.


PERFECT FOR

Endurance road riding, long-distance training, gran fondos, climbing, weekend road rides, rougher sealed roads and riders who prioritise all-day comfort without giving up responsive road-bike performance.
