Propel Advanced SL Disc
Reengineered with Giant’s AeroSystem Shaping technology, which means that every tube shape and angle is optimized for minimal drag with a new "truncated ellipse" shape, the Advanced SL-grade composite frame is ultra-stiff and superlight. And its new disc-brake technology is integrated with the frameset, including flat-mount calipers and thru-axles for optimal wheel stiffness and braking performance on the road. For pro-level road performance and the ultimate aero advantage, the new Propel Advanced SL Disc is way ahead of the pack. Here are the core technologies that set the Propel Advanced SL Disc apart from the competition.
Giant’s Professional Grade raw carbon material is woven in our own composite factory using our most advanced engineering and construction methods including: Continuous Fiber Technology to add strength while reducing weight; Carbon Nanotube Technology resin to improve impact resistance; and Fusion Process for lighter, stronger frame junctions.
Through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and wind-tunnel data, engineers optimize each tube shape to deliver superior aerodynamic performance.
The most advanced steerer tube technology in today’s Giant bikes. Designed to offer unprecedented front-end steering performance, the system’s oversized headset bearings (1 1/2” lower, 1 1/4” upper) and tapered steerer tube work in harmony to provide supreme steering stiffness.
Giant’s chainstay integrated, wireless data transmitter. The removable transmitter sends wheel speed and cadence information directly to any ANT+ compatible computer.
