Giant TCR Advanced - puts everyone else in the Hurt Locker
'Fantastically accurate with a greedy enthusiasm for speed and climbs mean this bike begs you to put the power down.'

Giant's TCR Advanced 3 features in September's Triathlon Plus BIG BIKES OF 2010 test and once again the performance of Giant's Bike of The Year winner shines through.

Triathlon Plus tested Giant's TCR Advanced 4 back in their June issue, with the entry level TCR beating Trek, Specialized and Scott, packing a punch way above it's price tag. So how does the TCR Advanced 3 compare?

With some notable spec upgrades over the test winning TCR Advanced 4, the TCR Advanced 3 shaves off some additional weight and includes Giant's Connect SL cockpit which is 'really well shaped and stiff enough for aggressive riding'.

'Some bikes are genuine watershed rides that mark a real shift in capability and character from just good to absoutely great, and the TCR Advanced is undoubtedbly one of those bikes.'

With another 4.5 out of 5, the Giant TCR Advanced 3 proved most popular with testers again and is Triathlon Plus's pick of Big Bikes For 2010

'Every upslope, corner exit, every village sign, it's begging you to press the pedals and put everyone else in the hurt locker.'
