Giant Rapid 3 2017 - Flar Bar Road Bike

Dubbed 'The London Bike' by Giant's development team, the Giant Rapid 3 flat bar road bike is the ultimate urban commuter with added muscle to take on the rough and smooth.

At the heart of the Rapid is an advanced ALUXX SL aluminium frame with a high strength to weight ratio for sporty characteristics. Double butted tube walls keep weight low while keeping the frame strong. Double pass Smooth Welds and hand sanding create a strong and stylish looking frame.

A comfortable stretched out geometry is road bike inspired, but with the control and visibility offered by a flat handlebar. The Giant Rapid is fitted with a composite carbon bladed fork to shave extra weight and reduce road vibrations.

Fully compatible for mudguards and racks, and puncture resistant tyres improve this bike's daily practicality. Powerful disc brakes work equally well in all weather conditions while a 8x3 Shimano Claris drivetrain offers all the gears needed for city riding.

Good quality Giant GX28 disc specific wheels are matched with 28mm wide tyres offering a great a balance between speed and durability. Ride in style with the Giant Rapid 3.
