GIANT PROPEL ADV 1
Get the most from your hard-earned pedalling power. Whether it's squeezing our more speed on solo rides or taking bragging rights in the group, the new lighter, smoother Propel Advanced makes the thrill of the road accessible to all. A lightweight composite frameset with AeroSystem Shaping technology forms the heart of this reengineered road machine. It's designed as a full-bike solution to minimizing resistance, integrating the frame and components more seamlessly to help unlock higher speeds. The cockpit gives it a sleek aero profile with internal cable routing, while the Vector seatpost combines aero shaping with added compliance to help smooth out bumps and road vibrations. An integrated WheelSystem with 50mm deep rims and tubeless aero tires reduce rolling resistance, while added frame and fork clearance let you run high-volume tires (up to 32mm) for smooth, efficient control.
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.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
- Integrated aerodynamics: AeroSystem Shaping, a result of CFD analysis and dynamic wind-tunnel testing, optimizes aerodynamic performance at every yaw angle. The truncated ellipse airfoil tube shapes and all-new Contact SL Aero cockpit produce superior aero performance.
- Race-winning efficiency: Advanced-grade composite frame and hybrid alloy/composite fork deliver optimal stiffness and weight savings. The result is an even greater stiffness-to-weight advantage.
- Easier adjustability: All-new cable routing through the stem and head tube makes it quicker and easier to adjust or change cockpit components and fine-tune performance and riding position.
