2017 Giant Defy Advanced 1 : Ultegra : Black / Orange

Season:2017

Brand:Giant

Code:701020

Giant are in the business of creating high quality product that displays genuine value for money. To this end, their Advanced ranges of carbon bikes - be that Defy, TCR or Propel - all use the high grade (and indeed benchmark) Torayca Carbon fibre married to high quality resins, in processes that they control from start to finish. The result is the finest quality entry level carbon bikes on the market.

Recently re-designed, the Defy Advanced series retains the upgraded Torayca T700 carbon frameset of last year. This lends greater stiffness and lower weight to an already strong performer and coupled with an excellent component package, the Defy Advanced range is difficult to beat for the discerning cyclist looking to venture into the carbon road bike realm. The use of disc brakes in the carbon line-up continues for the 2017 season and adds an element of confidence for the sportive rider or solo mile-muncher who enjoys descending and riding whatever the conditions. All Giant's Defy Advanced models now employ the stopping prowess of RS405 hydraulic actuated disc brakes. The Advanced range sees an upgrade in this respect for the 2017 season, replacing the TRP Spyre cable operated system of last year. The main differences between the models come in the form of groupset and the Advanced 1 uses a Shimano Ultegra group - widely regarded as the best overall groupset available when everything is considered. This is an upgrade from the 105 found on the Advanced 2. Like the Advanced 2, the Advanced 1 uses of Giant's stronger and more aerodynamic PR 2 disc wheels, so you have everything you need from a carbon bike for churning out the miles, be those commuting or endurance riding. Like the bulk of Giant's Avail and Defy ranges, the Advanced features a D-Fuse seatpost - so called as its profile is shaped like a D and diffuses unwanted vibration to create a more comfortable ride.

Designed around the proven endurance geometry of the Defy range and handcrafted with lightweight, smooth riding Advanced grade composite, the frame delivers speed, confidence and control. The rear triangle features ultra thin, flattened seat stays to reduce road vibrations and the D-Fuse seatpost helps smooth out the road. Disc brake technology gives you more control in all types of weather. So however far you ride, Defy Advanced helps you stay strong to the finish.

  • Frame: Advanced-Grade Composite, Electronic Ready
  • Fork: Advanced-Grade Composite, Hybrid OverDrive Steerer
  • Drivetrain: Shimano Ultegra 22 speed
  • Brakes: Shimano BR-RS505 hydraulic disc brakes, 160mm rotors
  • Wheels: Giant PR 2 Disc Wheel Set
