Giant TCR Advanced 1 2016 - Road Bike
Ride faster, race harder with the Giant TCR Advanced 1. Superior ride quality and performance spec combine into the total road race bike. For riders who want to bolt on the flats and fly up the climbs.
Frame & Fork
Giant are known for their frame building prowess and producing high quality composite frames without breaking the bank. The TCR Advanced 1 is built with Giant’s Advanced grade composite frame for an ultra light and agile steed that retains its pedal stomping stiffness, so you win the race to the line.
High Performance grade raw carbon fibres are used because of their high stiffness to weight ratio. High Performance resin includes vibration damping particles for a more comfortable ride over longer distances.
The frameset is built as a modified monocoque construction. The front triangle is one piece then joined to the rear stays. This eliminates the need for the outermost composite sheet which reduces weight without compromising ride quality, strength or stiffness.
Lateral and torsional stiffness up-front is critical for any road race bike. The Advanced 1 comes with an Advanced grade composite hybrid fork with OverDrive tapered steerer. When combined with Giant’s MegaDrive rectangular downtube and oversized toptube, front-end stiffness is greatly improved. This translates into knife-edge steering precision.
Components
Not content with providing a quality frame, the TCR Advanced 1 comes equipped with pro level Shimano Ultegra 11 speed drivetrain with compact cranks, including brakes. This is just one level down from top-end Dura Ace and features much of its performance.
New for 2016 is a Variant composite seatpost to lower frame weight and also improve ride quality. The natural vibration damping qualities of carbon help keep you feeling fresher for longer. Easy adjustment is a big bonus.
