Legendary innovation. Race-winning performance. The TCR range has been ahead of the pack for nearly 30 years.

Generation X

The 10th generation TCR is the result of a team effort involving Giant product developers, our in-house aerodynamics team, and Team Jayco-AlUla racers. The entire range introduces new features made possible by cutting-edge construction techniques. These technologies are about saving watts, but they’re also about transforming your road riding experience. Stiffness and weight matter, but not at the expense of ride quality or control. Internal cable routing and a more integrated cockpit improve aerodynamics and offer a cleaner profile, but not at the cost of overly complicated maintenance and adjustment.

Key features of the TCR range

System optimization

The frameset, wheels, cockpit and other parts are engineered, developed and tested together to perform best as a system. The OverDrive Aero steerer tube technology is combined with a Contact AeroLight stem to incorporate internal cable routing that also integrates the top cap, cables and spacers in a more aerodynamic, user-friendly setup.

Lighter, stiffer, more aerodynamic. The numbers back TCR’s position as the world’s leading all-rounder race bike.
