Giant TCR Advanced SL 1 Disc 2021 Carbon Road Bike Gloss Cosmos Navy Merchant : Rutland Cycling
Product Description
For 2021, Giant’s project began with a seemingly impossible goal: Make it even more efficient. With thanks to endless research, designing and testing, Giant can proudly proclaim that the TCR Advanced SL Disc is the fastest TCR ever.The TCR Advanced SL Disc is the choice of CCC Team WorldTour racers who endure challenging road courses that demand uncompromising all-rounder performance. With the highest stiffness-to-weight ratio in its class, the Advanced SL 1 Disc is an efficient climber and lightning-fast sprinter.Thanks to new aerodynamic tube shaping on the headtube, downtube and fork, the all-new TCR puts its rivals to the sword on breakaways and solo efforts.A SRAM Force ETAP drivetrain and matching hydraulic disc brakes ensures the TCR Advanced SL 1 Disc is kitted out cutting-edge components to match a bike that possesses the same goal. With additional clearance, the Advanced SL Disc can now accommodate tyres of up to 32mm (28mm for rim brake version), while the latest integrated WheelSystem technology, and a new aero-engineered Contact SLR composite handlebar and stem that makes it even faster against the wind.Class-leading efficiency - With the highest pedalling stiffness-to-weight ratio of any bike in its class and updated aero tube shaping, the TCR Advanced SL 1’s frameset is engineered to give Giant pro road racers superior climbing capabilities, aerodynamic efficiency and sprint stiffness for race-winning performance.Advanced aerodynamics - This is where the TCR Advanced SL’s most quantifiable gains can be found compared to previous models from the past 20 years. Every tube shape was analysed, engineered and tested to create an overall structure with significantly lower drag at a wider range of yaw angles. The result? A TCR that’s faster than ever in sprints and solo situations.Total control - Integrated disc brakes deliver smooth, powerful stopping power and modulation for added control in variable weather and road conditions. Flat mounts and new thru-axles boost stiffness and improve overall handling, while added frame and fork clearance allows for larger diameter tyres of up to 32mm.
