Contend SL 0
Current price: 24 090,00 kr
From its sleek, aero-inspired alloy frame and composite fork to its road-smoothing components and ergonomically designed cockpit, the new Contend SL makes performance road riding accessible to all. Speed through the city or join the group ride with more confidence, control and speed.
Key Performance Factors
AERO INSPIRED
An aero-shaped down tube and composite fork form a sleek profile that cuts through the wind. The Giant ALP WheelSystem has an all-rounder rim depth of 30mm and robust aluminum construction that’s lightweight and strong enough to handle everyday use on variable road surfaces. The cockpit setup features internally routed cables to further reduce wind drag and create a clean, modern look.
COMMAND CONTROL
An ergonomically designed handlebar optimizes hand comfort in every position, from the tops to the hoods to the drops. The drops have 7.2-degree flare for greater confidence and control descending and cornering. Hydraulic disc brakes deliver consistent, predictable braking power and help minimize hand fatigue on long descents. A proven Shimano drivetrain with a 50/34 chainring combination offers a wide range of gears for optimal pedaling cadence on variable terrain.
SMOOTH COMFORT
An Advanced-grade composite fork soaks up the bumps and contours of the road, minimizing hand and arm fatigue, while an ergo-shaped handlebar with an expanded surface area helps distributes pressure across the palm and thumb web. A D-Fuse seatpost absorbs shocks and vibrations, and a Giant Grit Core saddle uses Particle Flow Technology to conform to your body. Higher volume 28mm tires allow you to run lower tire pressure for better grip and a smoother ride quality.
Highlights
1
ERGONOMIC COCKPIT
Alloy handlebar with an expanded surface area to evenly distribute pressure across the palm and thumb web. Designed for comfort in every position, from the tops to the hoods to the drops—which have a 7.2-degree flare for descending and cornering confidence.
2
INTERNAL CABLE ROUTING
Brake and shifter cables are routed internally through the stem and frameset for aero optimization and a clean, uncluttered look.
3
COMPOSITE FORK (SL 0 & 1)
The advanced-grade composite fork absorbs road shock and vibrations for smooth ride quality and precise steering, while frame and fork clearance accommodates tires up to 32mm wide - perfect for everything from smooth pavement to rougher roads and light gravel.
4
DISC-BRAKE INTEGRATION
The frame and fork are engineered specifically for disc brakes for reliable braking performance in all weather and road condition
5
ALUXX SL ALUMINUM
State-of-the-art aluminum material delivers best-in-class strength-to-weight ratios. The frameset also features double-butted tubing, FluidForm shaping, and innovative welding technologies including Smooth Weld to give it a high-performance ride quality.
6
GIANT ALP WHEELS
Strong, lightweight and structurally stiff alloy wheels featuring 30mm deep rims for all-versatile road speed, efficiency and everyday durability.
7
28c WIDE TIRES
The 28mm wide tires deliver improved efficiency, comfort and control.
8
D-FUSE TECHNOLOGY
Aluminum D-shaped seatpost dampens vibrations and absorbs road shock, resulting in a smooth, compliant ride quality.
9
GIANT GRIT CORE SADDLE
Uses Particle Flow Technology with freeflowing particles placed in two separate pockets of the padding to conform to a rider’s body for more evenly distributed weight and reduced pressure.
Techs & Features
ALUXX SL Aluminum Technology
This High-Performance level, state-of-the-art aluminum material is made predominantly from 6011 alloy and delivers best-in-class strength-to-weight ratios. These framesets also feature unique welding technologies for a high-performance ride quality.
D-Fuse Technology
The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar were designed to function as a system, absorbing road shocks and vibrations so you can ride farther, faster.
