GIANT TCR C1 GETS GREAT INK IN ROAD BIKE ACTION

And the great ink just keeps on flowing……

Take a look at pages 44-46 in the May/June 2008 issue of Road Bike Action. In a bike test review the editors write things like the following about the Giant TCR C1:

“Giant has been making carbon fiber bicycles for decades, and their TCR line of composite frames has been tuned and perfected for six years. …When you look at the TCR C1, you can instantly tell that Giant knows what they are doing with their carbon construction process.”

“Visually, the TCR C1 features a ghosted ‘Giant’ logo on the top tube, which melts into the visible weave of the carbon below and gives the bike an artistic, mysterious attribute.”

“RBA test riders happily noted the TCR C1’s attributes: stiffness, predictability, and responsiveness to heavy riding loads during flat-out sprints. After two or three rides on the TCR C1 it was clear it is meant to be a race bike, designed for aspiring racers who want the attributes of the $6000 TCR Advanced frame, but for half the price.”

“Beyond Giant’s superbly constructed frame, we like its better-than-the-norm treatments like the Fizik saddle, its Race Face bar and the Jagwire control cables, which help the Giant stand out from competitors at this price point. The TCR C1 is a true racing machine from one of the world’s most experienced carbon bike makers.”
