Product Specifications
Winning race bikes have the perfect balance of lightness, superior stiffness, and road comfort. The TCR Advanced excels in all three areas.
Key performance factors
World-class efficiency
A high stiffness-to-weight ratio combined with aerodynamic tube geometry strategically placed enables faster climbing, explosive acceleration, and unwavering pedaling stiffness for winning race performance.
Advanced aerodynamics
This is where the most measurable gains of the TCR compared to previous generation models can be observed. Every tube shape has been analyzed, designed, and tested to create an overall structure offering significantly reduced drag over a wider range of yaw angles.
Total control
A composite fork offers torsional stiffness for sharp handling and steering precision, while a Giant wheel system with tubeless technology allows for lower tire pressures for better grip and reduced risk of punctures.

Weight | What is the weight of the bike? It’s a classic and important question. There is no standard in the bike industry that allows comparing the weights of bikes from one brand to another. The differences depend on sizes, materials used, finishes, elements included or not in the weight evaluation. We consider that the only way to assess the weight of a bike is simply to try it. |
