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. 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. 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. OverDrive Aero Found inside the head tube of the Defy Propel and TCR ranges the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic easier to service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.
