2010 GIANT STP 1 WHEELS PRO
Every model gets Giant’s RideSense and all but the lowest Advanced Pro 2 and Advanced Pro 3 Disc come equipped with power meters.Īt the budget end, Giant's TCR Advanced starts at £1,399 and offers an entry-level to Giant’s carbon road bikes. The TCR Advanced Pro range also shares the same finishing kit and wheels with upgrades to the drivetrains as the models move up in price. The proprietary D-Fuse Variant seatpost is no longer integrated with the frame, instead, it uses a hidden seat collar system. The TCR Advanced Pro has all the stiffness advantages of using the oversized tubes, headset and bottom bracket area that's also seen on the TCR Advanced SL, but it lacks the Advance SL Grade carbon.
2010 GIANT STP 1 WHEELS BLUETOOTH
The TCR Advanced SL 0 Disc gets an ultra-premium CADEX upgrade.Īll TCR Advanced SL models come equipped with dual-sided power meters and Giant’s chainstay-integrated RideSense sensor, which sends speed and cadence data via Bluetooth or ANT+ to compatible GPS devices. Own-brand equipment usually signifies areas for future upgrades but the TCR Advanced SL rolls on Giant’s SLR-1 42mm composite wheels which are proven performers. The rim brake version of the TCR Advanced SL comes equipped with Shimano Ultegra while the Disc versions use SRAM Force or Red eTap AXS. The integrated D-Fuse Variant seatpost uses a refined shape that Giant claims improves compliance and gives the frame a clean finish. An OverDrive2 headset, MegaDrive down/top tube and a PowerCore bottom bracket strengthen and stiffen the frame to improve steering precision and power transfer.

The TCR Advanced SL is Giant's lightest road frameset and is designed to bring the ultimate in stiffness to weight ratio using its own advanced carbon manufacturing processes. Giant’s TCR range continues to be at the forefront of performance road bikes. The compact frame was the vision of bike designer Mike Burrows and his design now influences every new road bike available.

Using sloping top tubes and smaller triangles road bikes became lighter, stiffer and able to offer a better bike-fit. When the TCR (Total Compact Road) was introduced in the 90s, Giant revolutionised the design of road bikes.
