Giant TCR Advanced 2 - Carbon

Built to ride faster. Whether you're climbing, cornering, or launching an attack - this new carbon road racer is made for that moment. It is lightweight, efficient, and designed for speed to give you a competitive edge in any situation.

System Optimized
The frameset, wheels, cockpit, and other parts were designed, developed, and tested as a system. The new Contact AeroLight stem allows for cable routing where the top cap, cables, and spacers are integrated into an aerodynamic, user-friendly setup.

Superior Efficiency
With a better stiffness-to-weight ratio than the previous generation, a new aero tube design, and a lower overall weight, this uncompromising racing bike offers explosive acceleration and uncompromising pedaling stiffness.

Holistic Aerodynamics
All tube shapes were developed and constructed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models and wind tunnel tests. From the truncated ellipse shape of the frame tubes to a new cockpit design and component integration - everything together results in a sleeker profile that significantly improves aerodynamics compared to the previous generation.
