Propel Advanced SL
Ultimate Speed
From breakaways to the final sprint. On flat roads, climbs or descents. The reengineered Propel Advanced SL cuts through wind and maximizes watts, optimizing your energy through every dimension of speed: top-end speed, instant speed and sustained speed.
Factores Clave de Rendimiento
Velocidad Pura
En los momentos en que la velocidad explosiva importa más—al lanzar un ataque, perseguir una fuga o disputar el sprint final—la nueva Propel Advanced SL es más rápida y dinámica que nunca. Todo el sistema reduce 355 g respecto a la generación anterior y además es más eficiente, con 14.2 % más rigidez torsional y 14.8 % mayor rigidez de pedaleo, para que sientas una respuesta instantánea cuando hagas tu movimiento.
Velocidad sostenida
Diseñada para ofrecer absorción en toda la bicicleta, la nueva Propel Advanced SL brinda una rodada significativamente más suave cuando vas en grupo o acumulando kilómetros de entrenamiento. El poste de asiento integrado Vector ofrece 25 % mayor absorción en comparación con la generación anterior. La horquilla y el cockpit integrado ayudan a amortiguar baches y vibraciones en la parte frontal con 15 % más absorción. Además, el mayor espacio para llantas permite usar cubiertas de alto volumen de hasta 32 mm, suavizando aún más la rodada para ayudarte a mantener velocidades más altas con menos fatiga.
Máxima velocidad
El cuadro, el cockpit, las ruedas y las llantas forman un sistema unificado que reduce la resistencia total cuando ruedas a altas velocidades contra el viento, ya sea en una fuga en solitario, tomando relevos al frente del grupo o atacando en una subida. El cuadro AeroSystem y el cockpit integrado minimizan la resistencia aerodinámica, mientras que el nuevo WheelSystem CADEX Max 50 y las llantas Aero reducen la resistencia al rodamiento. Al considerar la resistencia aerodinámica lineal, la resistencia rotacional de las ruedas y la resistencia al rodamiento de las llantas, todo se traduce en un ahorro total de energía de 18.4 watts.
Destacables
The flagship model of the Propel range targets full system speed with uncompromising aero performance, superior power transfer, and a smoother ride quality. The Advanced SL-grade aero frame, now 45g lighter, retains its AeroSystem Shaping to minimize drag from every angle. From the Contact SLR Aero cockpit to the integrated seatpost and CADEX Max 50 WheelSystem with CADEX Aero tires, every element is developed and tested to reduce wind drag and rolling resistance. The results speak for themselves: an 18.44-watt improvement, 14.8% higher system pedaling efficiency, and smoother compliance at both ends of the bike—helping you sprint faster, climb more efficiently, and sustain higher speeds.
1
AEROSYSTEM SHAPING
Strategically engineered airfoil sections use truncated ellipse tubing to more effectively reduce drag compared to traditional teardrop shaped tubes. The system is developed and proven through CFD modeling and wind-tunnel testing at a wide range of yaw angles.
2
ADVANCED SL COMPOSITE
Professional-grade raw carbon is woven in the Giant composite factory using the most advanced engineering and construction methods. Continuous Fiber Technology adds strength and minimizes weight.
3
ONE-PIECE MOLD
Proprietary construction technique uses a single bladder (as opposed to previous generation’s three bladders) to create a one-piece front triangle. The result is reduced weight without compromising stiffness or aerodynamic shaping.
4
FULL COMPOSITE FORK
D-shaped steerer tube and legs are constructed entirely with Advanced SL-grade composite for ultralight weight, precise handling, and improved aerodynamic performance—along with increased clearance for tires up to 32mm.
5
CADEX MAX 50 WHEELSYSTEM
Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing technology, this aero WheelSystem delivers superior efficiency, pinpoint control and supreme aerodynamics.
6
CADEX AERO TIRE
A lightweight dual-layer TPI casing with an aerodynamic 64-groove shoulder tread reduces drag and rolling resistance to help you accelerate and sustain higher speeds.
7
AERO HANDLEBAR/STEM
Integrated composite handlebar/stem unit features aero shaping with flat handlebar tops and raised edges to help riders maintain a stable aero position. Internal cable routing further improves aerodynamics while maintaining ease of setup and adjustment.
8
OVERDRIVE AERO
The D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easy-to-service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.
9
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
The frame, handlebar and stem are designed with ports and channels to keep cables hidden from the wind while allowing for easy adjustability.
10
AERO BOTTLE CAGES
Custom-engineered down tube and seat tube specific bottle cages help reduce overall aerodynamic drag.
11
VECTOR INTEGRATED SEATPOST
Designed as a key performance factor in the overall frameset, the integrated seatpost saves up to 45g compared to standard composite posts, while improving aerodynamics and adding road-smoothing compliance.
