Giant Contend SL 1 - Birch Gray

AERO INSPIRED
An aerodynamically shaped down tube and a carbon fork create a sleek profile that slices through the wind. The Giant ALP WheelSystem features a versatile rim depth of 30 mm and a robust aluminium construction that is light and strong enough to handle daily use on varied road surfaces. The cockpit setup has internally routed cables to further reduce drag and create a clean, modern Look.

FULL CONTROL
The ergonomically shaped handlebar provides super hand comfort in any position, whether on top, bottom, or in the cornering position. The cornering position has a 7.2-degree flare for added safety and control on descents and in corners. Hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent, predictable braking power and help minimise hand fatigue on long descents. A proven Shimano drivetrain with a 50/34 chainring combination offers a wide range of gears for optimal cadence across varied terrain.

SMOOTH COMFORT
A high-quality carbon fork absorbs the bumps and contours of the road, reducing fatigue in the hands and arms, while an ergonomically shaped handlebar with an enlarged surface area distributes pressure on the palm and thumb area. A D-Fuse seat post absorbs shocks and vibrations, and an Giant Grit Core saddle adapts to your body thanks to Particle Flow Technology. With the bulkier 28 mm tubeless tyres, you can run lower tyre pressures, which provides better grip and more riding comfort.
