Found inside the head tube of the Defy, Propel and TCR ranges, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easier to service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.

Propel Advanced 2
Maximize your watts during sprints, breakaways and solo attacks. This aero road machine is built to give you a real advantage against the wind. Because small gains lead to big wins.
Key Performance Factors
Integrated aerodynamics
AeroSystem Shaping, a result of CFD analysis and dynamic wind-tunnel testing, optimizes aerodynamic performance at every yaw angle. The truncated ellipse airfoil tube shapes and all-new Contact SL Aero cockpit produce superior aero performance.
Easier adjustability
All-new cable routing through the stem and head tube makes it quicker and easier to adjust or change cockpit components and fine-tune performance and riding position.
Race-winning efficiency
Advanced-grade composite frame and hybrid alloy/composite fork deliver optimal stiffness and weight savings. The result is an even greater stiffness-to-weight advantage.
