Key Performance Factors

An upright riding position, flat handlebars and D-Fuse seatpost make commuting or a casual spin comfortable without compromising efficiency.
Fun Fitness
The lightweight, balanced geometry of the ALUXX-Grade Aluminum frame provides an energizing combination of speed and stability.

Pedaling efficiency, reliable shifting and powerful braking are a perfect trio for predictable cruising.
Tech & Features
ALUXX Aluminum 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.
Compact Road Design
When introduced by Giant in 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.
D-Fuse Seatpost
The proprietary “D” shaped composite seatpost damps vibration, resulting in a smooth, compliant ride.

| Weight | The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality. |
