ALUXX SL Aluminum Technology

This High-Performance level, state-of-the-art aluminum material is made predominantly from 6011 alloy and delivers best-in-class strength-to-weight ratios. These framesets also feature unique welding technologies for a high-performance ride quality.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

• Aero Inspired: An aero-shaped down tube and composite fork form a sleek profile that cuts through the wind. The Giant ALP WheelSystem has an all-rounder rim depth of 30mm and robust aluminum construction that’s lightweight and strong enough to handle everyday use on variable road surfaces. The cockpit setup features internally routed cables to further reduce wind drag and create a clean, modern look.
• Comfort And Performance: An ergonomically designed handlebar optimizes hand comfort in every position, from the tops to the hoods to the drops. The drops have 7.2-degree flare for greater confidence and control descending and cornering. Hydraulic disc brakes deliver consistent, predictable braking power and help minimize hand fatigue on long descents. A proven Shimano drivetrain with a 50/34 chainring combination offers a wide range of gears for optimal pedaling cadence on variable terrain.
• Optimal Control: An Advanced-grade composite fork soaks up the bumps and contours of the road, minimizing hand and arm fatigue, while an ergo-shaped handlebar with an expanded surface area helps distributes pressure across the palm and thumb web. A D-Fuse seatpost absorbs shocks and vibrations, and a Giant Grit Core saddle uses Particle Flow Technology to conform to your body. Higher volume 28mm tubeless tires allow you to run lower tire pressure for better grip and a smoother ride quality.

WEIGHT: THE 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.
