Giant TCR
The Giant TCR series is renowned for its exceptional all-around performance, catering to competitive racers and serious road cyclists who seek a lightweight, stiff, and responsive bike.
The TCR lineup includes several models, ranging from the more accessible TCR Advanced, through the mid-range TCR Advanced Pro, to the top-tier TCR Advanced SL. The price range across the TCR series can vary significantly, starting from around £2,000 for the entry-level models and reaching up to £10,000 or more for the high-end versions equipped with the latest technology and premium components.
Giant TCR Key features
Advanced Composite Technology: The TCR frames are constructed using Giant's Advanced Composite technology, ensuring a perfect balance of lightweight, stiffness, and compliance. The higher-end TCR Advanced SL models use a more sophisticated composite layup for even greater weight savings and performance.
Aerodynamic Frame Design: Recent iterations of the TCR series have emphasized aerodynamic improvements without sacrificing weight or stiffness. This includes aerodynamically shaped tubing, integrated seatposts, and optimized frame geometry to reduce air resistance.
Compact Road Geometry: The TCR series pioneered the Compact Road design, featuring a sloping top tube that allows for smaller frame triangles. This design improves frame stiffness and handling while also allowing for riders of different sizes to find a more precise fit.
OverDrive Steerer Technology: This technology involves an oversized fork steerer tube for improved stiffness and steering precision, ensuring confident handling at high speeds and during aggressive cornering.
TCR MODEL COMPARISON
The Giant TCR series offers a range of road bikes designed for varying levels of performance and budget, all built around the core principles of lightweight design, stiffness, and aerodynamics. Here's a concise comparison:
TCR Advanced SL: This top-tier model features the lightest and stiffest Advanced SL-grade composite frame with an integrated seatpost and AeroSystem Shaping Technology for maximum aerodynamics. Price starts around £5,000.
TCR Advanced Pro: Offers an Advanced-grade composite frame without the integrated seatpost for more adjustability, still benefiting from AeroSystem Shaping and precise handling. Prices range from £3,000 to £5,500.
TCR Advanced: Targets competitive performance with a more accessible price, using Advanced-grade composite with a standard seatpost. Price ranges from £1,800 to £3,500.
