And its unique AeroVault system includes an integrated front hydration unit, top tube storage box, and downtube water bottle that, together, actually improve the bike’s aero performance on the road. Aero efficiency – Extensive CFD analysis, dynamic wind tunnel testing, and triathlon-specific design result in superior aero performance in a race-ready configuration. Integrated design – Everything from the AeroVault System for accessible on-bike hydration and storage to the Giant brakes and cockpit are engineered to perform as a system. Perfect fit – Refined frame geometry and a wider range of adjustability allow for a triathlon-specific fit or a TT setup that’s designed to meet the unique demands of racing against the clock. The Revolt and Devote are gravel race bikes designed to provide speed and confident handling on rough terrain.
Stable ride quality Smooth-rolling 700c wheels and an upright position give Cypress a relaxed feel on roads or paths. High-quality frameset ALUXX aluminum tubing is lightweight, strong and durable. The linkage allows for shorter chainstays, which improves the bike’s climbing capabilities and overall agility.
Use Giant’s SureLock Flex-Key Cable Lock alone in safe areas and as a back-up to a U-lock in higher risk neighborhoods. It features a heavy-duty, extra-flexible, self-coiling 185cm-long cable with an integrated lock that is pick and drill resistant. The tough vinyl cover protects your bike against scratches and it comes with an easy-to-use, on-bike quick release bracket so you’ll never have to leave your lock behind.
We own two stores, which helps keep us relevant, as well as very cognizant of how challenging retail is, and how quickly it changes. We’ve come to understand that retail is a living and evolving environment, and it’s grand experiences with riders that keep them in the family. Retail must be loved, nurtured, and managed with immediacy—you simply cannot do that well from afar. I know of no brand that has stores that thrive, despite a remote staff.
They aim to satisfy riders looking for a 50/50 split of uphill and downhill performance. The Trance 29 has 115mm of rear travel with a 130mm fork while the 27.5” version has 140mm of rear travel with and 150mm fork. The Intrigue 29 has 125mm of rear travel with a 140mm fork while the 27.5” version has 140mm of rear travel with a 150mm fork. Maestro suspension keeps these bikes efficient uphill, and progressive trail geometry featuring longer reach, slacker head tube, and steeper seat tube angles improve confidence when descending.
We engineered the geometry of the Advanced composite frame and swingarm around larger diameter 29-inch wheels. That means shorter chainstays, a longer toptube, and just the right angles with the headtube (64.56 degrees) and seattube (76.36 degrees). We gave it an updated Maestro rear suspension system with 146mm of travel. The trunnion mount shock and Advanced Forged Composite rocker arm deliver an active, super plush feel on the trail. Other features including a cleanly routed dropper seatpost and a new Giant WheelSystem with Boost hub spacing and tubeless tires complete this race-ready package. With a stable, balanced ride quality and a suspension seatpost to absorb bumps, Cypress gets you spinning with ease.
As the world’s largest bike manufacturer, Giant actually has a giant selection of road bikes, mountain bikes, cyclocross, hybrids, and e-bikes. And, every Liv/giant bike is designed to serve the unique needs of the woman it’s made for. From the off-road bikes with Giant’s amazing Maestro suspension, giant KIDS BIKES to their cutting-edge road rides with their Advanced Composite Technology, these women’s bikes are truly custom-tuned for you. Plus, Giant’s top-end bikes are developed using feedback from professional racers. Their sport bikes are designed to be just as comfortable as they are zippy.
It’s the perfect road bike for riders seeking more performance and speed for racing, climbing, and general road riding. With a lightweight aluminum frame that’s designed with a low standover height, Pre inspires young riders to get rolling. Made with 12-inch wheels and a quick-adjust saddle, it’s the perfect way to begin their cycling adventures. Of all the fast giant ROAD BIKES gravel bikes we’ve tested, this may be the easiest to slide into. It’s fast and stable when you sink low into the drops and hammer, yet cooperative when you’re cruising on rail trails and broken-up dirt roads. The Revolt comes with 40mm Maxxis Velocita tires, which are best on hard dirt and packed gravel, and feel better on the road than knobbier options.
Every aspect of the bike is analyzed and optimized for a perfect fit. A cross-country race bike made to rocket over singletrack, the Anthem Advanced 29 1 is an XC rider’s dream. We’re super excited to carry Giant Road bikes because they offer killer value. Giant offers fast, aero and lightweight road bikes for the rider looking to upgrade and improve his or her performance while riding on and even off road.
Carbon fiber models that use Giant’s “Advanced grade composite” will add “Advanced” to the name. For example, the entry-level “TCR” road bike is aluminum, while the higher-end “TCR Advanced” road bike is carbon fiber. Founded in 2008 by Bonnie Tu, the CFO of Giant Bicycles, it was the first brand purely dedicated to women’s cycling. Bonnie decided to start Liv when she couldn’t find gear or bikes that fit her.
