Ride roads gravel or dirt with this versatile aluminum all-rounder. A composite fork gives it a smooth ride and a flip chip lets you adjust wheelbase and tire clearance. Key Performance Factors Confident handling Frame is designed with endurance positioning and shorter chainstays for precise handling agility and control. A longer reach shorter stem and lower bottom bracket drop improves stability on rugged terrain. Tuned compliance Dropped seatstays with thin tubing absorb road shocks and vibrations. The D-Fuse handlebar and seatpost work as a system to add compliance without sacrificing stiffness while cornering sprinting or climbing. Adaptable to the terrain A flip chip on the rear dropout adjusts the wheelbase: short for quicker handling and acceleration or long for improved stability at speed. The long setting allows for larger diameter tires up to 53mm. You can choose the included D-Fuse seatpost for maximum compliance or switch to a 30.9mm round or dropper post. ALUXX Aluminium Technology This Performance level frame material features 6061 alloy with single-butted tubes to produce strong lightweight framesets for a variety of different bikes and riding styles. Tubeless System Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother faster ride. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits. OverDrive Giant’s original oversized fork steerer tube technology. Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance the system’s oversized headset bearings 1 1/4” lower and 1 1/8” upper for road 1 1/2” lower and 1 1/8” upper for mountain and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness. D-Fuse Technology The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar were designed to function as a system absorbing road shocks and vibrations so you can ride farther faster. Flip Chip - Dropout Allows riders to quickly adjust the geometry and rear-wheel tire clearance with eccentric offset two-position hardware in the rear wheel dropouts.
