Propel Advanced SL
ULTIMATE SPEED
Unleash your sprint with 200 meters to go. Close a gap, chase back, launch a solo attack. This new aero road machine is made for the moments that count. More aero, more adjustable, more ways to win.
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 Contact SLR Aero cockpit produce outstanding overall aero performance.
Easier adjustability
All-new cable routing through the handlebar and frame makes it quicker and easier to adjust or change cockpit components and fine-tune performance and riding position.
Race-winning efficiency
Advanced SL-grade composite frameset features Giant’s pro-level composite materials and manufacturing processes. The result is 225 grams of weight savings compared to the previous generation and an even greater stiffness-to-weight advantage.
Highlights of the Propel Advanced SL
This all-new aero road machine is designed and engineered for one main purpose: speed. With its AeroSystem Shaping technology and race-winning efficiency, it’s the bike of choice for the WorldTour sprinters on Team BikeExchange-Jayco and the world’s fastest triathletes. The tubes feature a truncated ellipse shape for a frame that is both ultra-stiff and superlight. Now 225 grams lighter than the previous generation, it offers a competitive edge when it matters most.
1
AeroSystem Shaping
Through CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and wind-tunnel data, engineers optimize each tube shape to deliver superior aerodynamic performance.
2
Advanced SL Composite
Professional-grade raw carbon material is woven in our own composite factory using our most advanced engineering and construction methods including Continuous Fiber Technology, CNT Technology and Fusion Process.
3
Aero Tubeless WheelSystem
Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing technology, this aero WheelSystem and tubeless tires deliver superior efficiency, pinpoint control and supreme aerodynamics.
4
Vector Integrated Seatpost
Designed as a key performance factor in the overall frameset, the integrated seatpost saves up to 45 grams compared to standard composite posts, while improving aerodynamics and adding road-smoothing compliance.
5
OverDrive Aero
Found inside the head tube of the all-new Propel range, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic, easier to service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.
6
Full Composite Fork
D-shaped steerer tube and legs are constructed entirely from Giant’s Advanced SL-grade composite for the lightest weight and superior handling.
7
PowerCore
A massively oversized bottom bracket area features a fully integrated 86.5mm wide design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.
8
New Cable Routing
Frame and handlebar feature all-new cable porting for sleek, non-cluttered appearance and easier adjustability.
9
Disc-brake Integration
The frame and fork are engineered specifically for flat-mount disc-brakes, including front and rear 12mm thru-axles for reliable braking performance in all weather and road conditions.
10
Aero Handlebar/Stem
Aero handlebar and stem are designed to reduce overall drag while minimizing weight.
11
Aero Bottle Cages
Custom-engineered down tube and seat tube-specific water bottle cages help minimize overall aerodynamic drag.
