Giant Defy Advanced 2 - Mars Dust

Thoughtful interplay
The high-end carbon frame and fork have been specifically designed for endurance road cycling, providing a smooth and efficient ride quality that minimises fatigue on long distances. The new D-Fuse components work together to absorb road shocks and vibrations even better.

Full control
The new Contact D-Fuse handlebar features an ergonomic shape and an 8-degree flare for comfort and control on long day rides. The wide aluminium rims are optimised for large-volume tubeless tyres (up to 38 mm) and provide reliable handling and stability on asphalt and cobblestones.
