Fast gravel is fun gravel
The race bike of choice for Giant gravel racing pros is superlight, smooth over rugged roads, and adaptable to all types of conditions and riding styles. Race it, ride it, love it.
This gravel crusher is built on a lightweight Advanced composite frameset with updated geometry so you can tackle long, hard rides with greater efficiency. It’s adaptable to your riding style and terrain with a flip chip feature on the rear dropout that adjusts the wheelbase and tyre clearance (up to 53mm). You can choose a standard D-Fuse seatpost for maximum compliance or a 30.9mm round or dropper post. A lightweight composite fork eats up bumps and the Contact SLR XR D-Fuse carbon handlebar minimises fatigue by further absorbing shocks and vibrations.
Lightweight efficiency - Advanced composite frame and Advanced SL composite fork* save a combined 200 grams compared to the previous generation. Updated geometry includes a lower bottom bracket, longer reach, and steeper head tube angle for improved acceleration and climbing.
*Pro model only
Tuned compliance - A lowered seatstay junction with smaller diameter tubes absorbs road shocks and vibrations. The Contact SLR XR D-Fuse carbon handlebar and D-Fuse seatpost work as a system to optimise compliance without sacrificing stiffness while cornering, sprinting and climbing.
Adaptable to the terrain - A flip chip on the rear dropout adjusts the wheelbase: short for quicker handling, or long for improved stability at speed. The long setting also allows for larger diameter tyres up to 53mm. You can choose the included D-Fuse seatpost for maximum compliance, or switch to a 30.9mm round or dropper post.
