Giant Defy Advanced 2 - Medium

WITH EFFORTLESS EFFICIENCY AND QUIET COMPLIANCE, THIS LIGHTWEIGHT ENDURANCE ROAD MACHINE HELPS YOU RIDE STRONGER AND LONGER. THE COMPOSITE FRAME AND PURPOSE-BUILT COMPONENTS SMOOTH OUT ROUGH ROADS AND MINIMIZE FATIGUE.

KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS

Functional simplicity

Free of cumbersome gimmickry, the frameset is one of the lightest in its category. With a perfect balance of high-performance reactivity and all-day comfort, it offers a “less is more” experience for modern endurance road riding.

Engineered compliance

Advanced-grade composite frame and fork are specifically engineered for endurance road riding, delivering a smooth and efficient ride quality that minimizes fatigue on long rides. The new D-Fuse components work together to further absorb road shocks and vibrations.

Total control

New Contact D-Fuse handlebar features ergonomic shaping and an 8-degree flare for comfort and control on all-day rides. Wide, alloy rims are optimized for high-volume tubeless tires (up to 38mm), providing predictable handling and stability from asphalt to cobbles.

LIGHTWEIGHT CARBON ENDURANCE ROAD BIKE

With an all-new composite chassis that combines efficiency with compliance, this endurance road machine will have you logging more miles at a greater average speed. The combination of a D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar, both featuring D-shaped tubing to better absorb shocks and vibrations, helps you stay smooth no matter how rough the road. The new Contact AeroLight stem has cleanly integrated cable routing. And the frameset offers clearance for high-volume tires up to 38mm.

Please note, if you would like us to assemble the bike before shipping there is a €45 charge. This includes full assembly including a full check of gears, brakes, cables, tyres and safety check. Upon delivery, the bike will just need the pedals put on and the handlebars straightened. In most cases the handlebars will just need to be tightened with an allen key. The bike will arrive in an extra-large box as it will be completely wrapped in bubble wrap to avoid damage in transit. If you choose to receive the bike flat packed, you will need to be competent in bike assembly or most likely you will need a bike mechanic to assemble it for you.
