Go long. go fast. superlight and silky smooth, the flagship series of the new defy range is back to reclaim its title as the pinnacle of endurance road. it’s the perfect choice for the sportive or gran fondo that’s circled on your calendar. With greater lateral stiffness and a superlight frame weight of 785g, this is the most efficient Defy ever. The composite frame layup targets smooth-riding performance for long, hard rides. The new D-Fuse SLR seatpost is now lighter and engineered with 40 percent added compliance. The Contact SLR D-Fuse handlebar, also new, features similar D-shaped tubing as the seatpost to absorb shocks and vibrations, plus an 8-degree flare for improved ergonomics and control. Component highlights include the new Contact SLR AeroLight stem with integrated cable routing. A CADEX 36 WheelSystem with superlight hookless carbon rims delivers snappy yet stable handling and superior tubeless tire performance. 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 SL-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 - A new Contact D-Fuse handlebar features ergonomic shaping and an 8-degree flare for comfort and control on all-day rides. Wide, hookless carbon rims (22.4mm inner width) are optimized for high-volume tubeless tires (up to 38mm), and a 36mm rim depth offers stable, predictable handling in crosswinds. ADVANCED COMPOSITE TECHNOLOGY - Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction. POWERCORE - A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter wide bottom-bracket design (92-millimeter wide for off-road bikes). Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside. 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. OVERDRIVE AERO - Found inside the head tube of the all-new Propel range, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easier to service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.

UNLEASH YOUR SPRINT WITH 200 METERS TO GO. CLOSE A GAP, CHASE BACK, LAUNCH A SOLO ATTACK. THIS NEW AERO ROAD MACHINE IS MADE FOR THE MOMENTS THAT COUNT. MORE AERO, MORE ADJUSTABLE, MORE WAYS TO WIN. KEY PERFORMANCE FACTORS Integrated aerodynamics AeroSystem Shaping, a result of CFD analysis and dynamic wind-tunnel testing, optimizes aerodynamic performance at every yaw angle. The truncated ellipse airfoil tube shapes and Contact SLR Aero cockpit produce outstanding overall aero performance. Easier adjustability All-new cable routing through the handlebar and frame makes it quicker and easier to adjust or change cockpit components and fine-tune performance and riding position. Race-winning efficiency Advanced SL-grade composite frameset features Giant’s pro-level composite materials and manufacturing processes. The result is 225 grams of weight savings compared to the previous generation and an even greater stiffness-to-weight advantage. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROPEL ADVANCED SL This all-new aero road machine is designed and engineered for one main purpose: speed. With its AeroSystem Shaping technology and race-winning efficiency, it’s the bike of choice for the WorldTour sprinters on Team BikeExchange-Jayco and the world’s fastest triathletes. The tubes feature a truncated ellipse shape for a frame that is both ultra-stiff and superlight. Now 225 grams lighter than the previous generation, it offers a competitive edge when it matters most. AEROSYSTEM SHAPING Through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and wind-tunnel data, engineers optimize each tube shape to deliver superior aerodynamic performance. ADVANCED SL COMPOSITE Professional-grade raw carbon material is woven in our own composite factory using our most advanced engineering and construction methods including Continuous Fiber Technology, CNT Technology, and Fusion Process. AERO TUBELESS WHEELSYSTEM Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing technology, this aero WheelSystem and tubeless tires deliver superior efficiency, pinpoint control, and supreme aerodynamics. VECTOR INTEGRATED SEATPOST Designed as a key performance factor in the overall frameset, the integrated seatpost saves up to 45 grams compared to standard composite posts, while improving aerodynamics and adding road-smoothing compliance. OVERDRIVE AERO Found inside the head tube of the all-new Propel range, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easier-to-service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables. FULL COMPOSITE FORK D-shaped steerer tube and legs are constructed entirely from Giant’s Advanced SL-grade composite for the lightest weight and superior handling. POWERCORE A massively oversized bottom bracket area features a fully integrated 86.5mm wide design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the drive-side and stability on the non-drive-side. NEW CABLE ROUTING Frame and handlebar feature all-new cable porting for sleek, non-cluttered appearance and easier adjustability. DISC-BRAKE INTEGRATION The frame and fork are engineered specifically for flat-mount disc brakes, including front and rear 12mm thru-axles for reliable braking performance in all weather and road conditions. AERO HANDLEBAR/STEM Aero handlebar and stem are designed to reduce overall drag while minimizing weight. AERO BOTTLE CAGES Custom-engineered down tube and seat tube-specific water bottle cages help minimize overall aerodynamic drag.

Faster everywhere Our fastest lightweight road bike ever. The all-new SuperSix EVO destroys expectations. So light, so fast, and so aero, it defies logic. This is a machine built to make you faster everywhere. Speed has evolved. Where it thrives - Racing, the red zone, the pointy end, the podium What it's built for - Road racing, PRs, KOMs, winning Highlights - Lightweight, low-drag SuperSix EVO carbon frameset – the ideal blend of speed, handling, and comfort. - Shimano 105 Di2 12-speed - Shimano's workhorse high-performance electronic shifting road group - DT-Swiss R470 rims - light, wide, and reliable aluminum wheels - Vision Trimax Carbon Aero bars and Cannondale C1 Conceal stem - ergonomic, low-drag cockpit with hidden cables The Lightest of the Fast The new SuperSix EVO's sleek, drag-reducing frameset saves precious watts with every pedal stroke. In fact, when paired with our aero Gripper bottles and cages, it will go wheel to wheel with some of the pure aero bikes out there. For a road racing bike, that’s huge, and for a bike this light, that’s impressive aerodynamic efficiency. The Fastest of the Light When it comes to aerodynamic drag, the new SuperSix EVO is not just one of the fastest lightweight road bikes out there, it’s one of the fastest road bikes, period. Its precisely engineered tube shapes and select components shave around 9 watts off of our last generation model at 45 km/h, putting it ahead of a lot of the pure "aero" bikes while weighing up to a kilo less. Light or Fast? Now you don't have to choose. Sculpted by Speed Sleek, elegant and purposeful. Hours in the wind tunnel and countless interations of computational fluid dynamic modeling stripped away everything that wasn't fast-shaped, leaving a frame design that catches the eye, while shedding the wind. Supernatural Handling SuperSix EVO is a wizard. The way it blends stability and agility is surreal. Refined, neutral racing geometry and fine-tuned engineering deliver handling that is so intuitive, so controllable, you can comfortably take it right to the limit and keep it there, all race long.
