Giant started out building Chromoly frames in 1972 and have since pioneered the construction of Aluminium and Composite frames and components. Many of their high-end bikes have won championships and design awards, and with over 12,000 Giant dealers around the world, their long standing reputation clearly precedes them.

Giant Contend SL Disc 1 2024 Bike

Elevate your road riding experience with confidence and control. This aluminium all-rounder blends smooth, quick handling with lightweight efficiency for a sublime ride quality.

Features

Balanced road geometry: Lightweight aluminium frame is engineered to produce a balanced feel that blends confident rider positioning with agile cornering and quick acceleration.

Smooth ride quality: Innovative D-Fuse composite seatpost reduces road shocks and vibrations. A Giant WheelSystem lets you run tubeless tyres up to 32mm 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, delivers consistent braking power in all types of weather and road conditions.

Technologies

Aluxx Aluminium Technology

This Performance level frame material features 6061 alloy with single-butted tubes to produce strong, lightweight framesets for a variety of different bikes and riding styles.

D Fuse Technology

The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar were designed to function as a system, absorbing road shocks and vibrations so you can ride farther, faster.

Overdrive

Giant's original oversized fork steerer tube technology. Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance, the system's oversized headset bearings (1 1/4" lower and 1 1/8" upper for road, 1 1/2" lower and 1 1/8" upper for mountain) and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness.

Compact Road Design

Introduced by Giant with the professional Team ONCE in the 1990s, Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward sloping toptube (from the headtube to the seattube) creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit.

Tubeless System

Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant's Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
