Go long. Go fast. Superlight and silky smooth, the flagship frameset of the new Defy range represents the pinnacle of endurance road performance. The frame and fork are both crafted from Giant's pro-level Advanced SL-grade composite, and the new SLR D-Fuse seatpost adds a small amount of flexing action (up to 7mm) for road-smoothing compliance.

  • Weight
    The most accurate way to determine any bike’s weight is to have your local dealer weigh it for you. Many brands strive to list the lowest possible weight, but in reality weight can vary based on size, finish, hardware and accessories. All our bikes are designed for best-in-class weight and ride quality.
