TCR Advanced 1 - PC

Winning race bikes have just the right balance of light weight, superior stiffness and smooth compliance on the road. TCR Advanced delivers on all three.

Class-leading efficiency

A high stiffness-to-weight ratio combined with strategically placed aero tube shaping results in faster climbing, explosive acceleration and unyielding pedaling stiffness for race-winning performance.

Advanced aerodynamics

This is where the TCR's most quantifiable gains can be found compared to previous generation models. Every tube shape was analyzed, engineered and tested to create an overall structure with significantly lower drag at a wider range of yaw angles.

Total control

A composite fork delivers torsional stiffness for sharp handling and steering precision, while a Giant WheelSystem with tubeless technology allows you to run lower tire pressures for increased grip and a reduced risk of punctures.

Technologies

Advanced Composite Technology

Giant's High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.

Compact Road Design

Introduced by Giant with the professional Team ONCE in the 1990s, Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward sloping toptube (from the headtube to the seattube) creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit.

PowerCore

A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter wide bottom-bracket design (92-millimeter wide for off-road bikes). Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.

Tubeless System

Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant's Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
