High-performance grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.
TCX Advanced Pro
Proven through countless pro wins, this lightweight composite cyclocross bike delivers quick acceleration, smooth handling and total control on dry pavement, loose dirt, deep sand or slick mud—everything you need to aim for the podium.

Highlights
The superlight composite frame is handcrafted with race-proven geometry and asymmetrical chainstays for optimal power transfer. The D-Fuse composite seatpost helps smooth out bumps and vibrations, and you also have the option to use a 30.9mm round standard or dropper seatpost. Other innovations include a lightweight composite WheelSystem and tubeless tires right out of the box. The flat-mount disc brakes and 12mm front and rear thru-axles deliver total control and fast cornering, sprinting and climbing in all conditions.

ADVANCED COMPOSITE
2
Cyclocross Specific Tubing
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was used to create tube shapes that enhance the performance and ride quality for cyclocross racing including a flattened and smoothed toptube shape for easier shouldering.
3
OverDrive 2
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.
4
Internal Cable Routing
Integrated ports and a tool-free bottom bracket guide in the frameset make cable installation easier. The internal routing saves weight and creates a cleaner look and performance.
5
D-Fuse Seatpost
All-new proprietary “D” shaped composite seatpost dampens vibration, resulting in a smooth, compliant ride.
6
Seatpost Adaptor
New frame design allows you to switch from the proprietary D-Fuse seatpost to a standard round 30.9mm seatpost. This enables riders to choose any type of seatpost, including a dropper seatpost, depending on riding style and terrain.
7
Modified Monocoque Construction
Eliminates the outermost woven composite sheet (found on heavier framesets) to reduce weight without affecting ride quality, strength or stiffness.
8
Disc-Brake Integration
The frame and fork are engineered with flat-mount disc-brake technology for powerful, consistent braking performance in all conditions. New front (12x100mm) and rear (12x142mm) thru-axles boost stiffness and steering precision.
9
PowerCore
A massively oversized bottom bracket area features a fully integrated 86mm wide design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.
10
Giant Tubeless System
Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing, an all-new composite WheelSystem and tubeless tires deliver improved efficiency, comfort and control in the most user-friendly and reliable system.

Advanced Composite Technology
Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.

PowerCore
A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter wide bottom-bracket design (92-millimeter wide for off-road bikes). Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.
Tubeless System
Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant’s Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
