Giant optimized reinforced layup places extra maximum-strength carbon fiber only where needed, creating a robust structure at minimal weight.

The proprietary “D” shaped composite seatpost damps vibration, resulting in a smooth, compliant ride.

The updated RideControl App expands the existing customization options for your SyncDrive motor. Now you choose exactly how you want the system to perform. You can use the app to adjust from the battery-saving Eco mode all the way up to Power mode, and collect all relevant ride metrics during your activity.

This new control unit is optimized for city and trekking bikes that don’t have front derailleur or dropper seatpost levers on the handlebar. It’s optimized for ergonomics, with larger buttons that are easy to reach. LEDs indicating battery level and support mode make it a standalone control unit that doesn’t require a display. A smaller 6mm connector makes it possible to have internal handlebar cable routing.

For our E-bikes equipped with RideControl One ANT+ or with Smart Gateway technology, the RideDash Plus unit can be used as an additional display. It shows important information including range, battery level and support mode along with standard cycling data like speed, distance and trip information. The RideDash Plus offers a larger screen and more modern design compared to the RideDash.

The SyncDrive Pro system, powered by the new Shimano EP8 motor, is a customized powertrain with 85Nm that produces smooth acceleration on paved roads, gravel or dirt. You can switch support modes using Shimano Di2 shift levers, allowing for a clean cockpit setup without an additional control unit.

This updated motor features a magnesium casing that reduces weight to just 2.5kg while still delivering 85Nm of torque and retaining the instant engagement that characterizes SyncDrive Pro motors. It’s also engineered for a reduced noise level and quiet performance. The motor shape and dimensions allow for a narrow Q factor to ensure a natural pedaling position with minimal strain on the knees.

More compact compared to a traditional road cycling pad to provide freedom of movement on transitions from road to off-road.

TransTextura Plus™ technology with 4-way stretch fabric provides moisture management and permanent anti-odor and antibacterial properties as super density foam provides outstanding support and compliance.

• Dynamic Cycling Fit (DCF) compatible chamois design for maximum comfort
• 12mm 3D thickness and 200k – thin density memory foam promotes vibration damping
• TransTextura Plus™ technology with 4-way stretch fabric provides excellent moisture management

Giant’s EasyRide Tubeless (ERT) technology is an easy solution for Sport-level riders who ride occasionally for light fitness or go on weekend adventures and are seeking the advantages of tubeless tire without the expensive upgrade or mess. A special integrated liner creates air chamber that functions similar to a tube so it is easier to pump up your tires—think, more user-friendly, value-oriented and safety than performance and speed.

Featuring multi-directional curvature and a smooth surface, it provides a great fit, enhanced stability and as well as gradual transition areas. The central channel is engineered according to specific anthropometrical parameters that support male anatomy while in saddle, relieving pressure and favoring blood flow.

Giant uses precision machined internals to eliminate the power loss that occurs through the pressure from the hub internals on the bearings, reducing friction and minimizing rolling resistance.

When engagement force was applied to determine how many cycles a hub can withstand before showing signs of significant wear, the TRX HE hub was five times more durable compared to benchmark competitors.

Mips Air Node™ is a super light and slim helmet security system that moves 10-15 mm in relation to the helmet’s energy-absorbing layer, reducing the rotational forces that are otherwise transmitted to the brain during impact. Fully integrated into the helmet’s padding, Mips Air Node™ is as light as possible and designed to fit each individual helmet model and size, making it virtually invisible until needed.

Magnetic Fidlock® helmet buckles are intuitive, pinch-free and can be opened or closed with one hand, even while wearing gloves.

The MIK (Mounting is Key) rack system is a revolutionary key installed rack system that locks your bag to your bike rack, making it hard for thieves to steal but easy for you to remove.
