TCR Advanced SL 1

MADE FASTER

This pro-level road bike is made for competitive road riders who obsess over performance—from grand tour pros like Simon Yates to everyday riders trying to reach a new level. The flagship TCR model combines its legendary ride quality with new system integration and construction methods to make it more efficient than ever. The down tube is significantly redesigned for improved aerodynamics. and a new integrated cockpit. including the OverDrive Aero steerer tube and Contact SLR AeroLight stem. offers internal cable routing to further minimise drag. From the integrated seatpost to the CADEX WheelSystem with 40mm deep carbon rims. every component is chosen and tested for system optimisation.

Professional-grade raw carbon is woven in the Giant composite factory using the most advanced engineering and construction methods. Continuous Fiber Technology adds strength and minimizes weight.

New construction technique uses a single bladder (as opposed to previous generation’s three bladders) to create a one-piece front triangle. The result is reduced weight without compromising stiffness or aerodynamic shaping.

Strategically engineered airfoil sections in the frame and fork. developed through CFD and wind-tunnel testing. improve aerodynamic efficiency. reducing wind drag at a wide range of yaw angles compared to traditional teardrop shaped tubes.

Frame/handlebar/stem feature unique cable porting for sleek. non-cluttered appearance and easier adjustability.

Advanced SL-grade composite fork features a symmetric design and aero shaping. along with disc-brake integration and increased clearance for tires up to 33mm. This new design makes it lighter. stiffer and more aerodynamic.

Lightweight handlebar and stem feature aero shaping including flat handlebar tops with raised edges to help riders maintain a stable aero position. Internal cable routing further improves aerodynamics while maintaining ease of setup and adjustment.

The D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic. easy-to-service system of internally routed brake and derailleur cables.

Specifically engineered for competitive road racers. Variant’s refined shape and integrated design reduces weight. improves aero performance. and adds road-smoothing compliance.

An oversized down tube and top tube provide superior front end lateral and torsional stiffness. The precisely engineered. rectangular shaped down tube yields unprecedented steering precision and pedaling performance.

The oversized bottom bracket area features a fully integrated 86mm wide design. Symmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.

Engineered with proprietary Dynamic Balanced Lacing and composite spokes. this tubeless ready composite WheelSystem delivers superior efficiency. comfort and control in the most user-friendly system.

The frame and fork are engineered with flat-mount disc-brake technology for powerful. consistent braking performance in all conditions.
