Advanced Composite Technology
In our own carbon processing factory, we use high-quality raw carbon with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio to produce custom Advanced Composite material. The front triangle of the frame is assembled and cured in a mold as a single continuous piece (monocoque) using a patented manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.

Flip Chip rear dropouts
The flip chip system consists of eccentric two-position inserts in the rear dropouts of the frame, which allow you to easily change the wheelbase. A shorter wheelbase makes the bike more agile, while a longer wheelbase improves stability at higher speeds and increases rear tire clearance (up to 53 mm). For more information, see the link below.

Giant Tubeless System
Fewer flats. Better tire grip. Less rolling resistance, more comfortable and faster riding. With Giant's tubeless system, you can enjoy all these benefits. The rims come with tubeless tape and valves already installed, so all you need to do is apply sealant and your wheels are ready for tubeless riding.

PowerCore
The massive oversized bottom bracket and rear triangle feature a fully integrated 86.5 mm bottom bracket design (92 mm on MTB bikes). The asymmetrical rear triangle provides greater stiffness on the chain side and better stability on the opposite side.

OverDrive
The oversized front fork steerer tube is designed to increase the stiffness of the front end of the frame set and steering for precise bike control. It includes oversize headset bearings (1 1/4" bottom and 1 1/8" top for road bikes and 1 1/2" bottom and 1 1/8" top for MTB bikes) and a tapered fork steerer tube for optimal steering stiffness.

MegaDrive
The massive rectangular down tube and oversized top tube form a unit that provides excellent lateral and torsional stiffness in the front of the frame. The result is precise steering and tracking. The intricately designed rectangular down tube provides unprecedented steering and pedaling stiffness.

D-Fuse Technology
The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebars work together as a system to dampen vibrations and absorb shocks from various riding surfaces for a more comfortable and efficient ride. Thanks to their specific "D" shape, the seatpost and handlebars flex slightly under load without compromising stiffness when cornering, climbing, or riding out of the saddle.

Compact Road Design
When Giant collaborated with the ONCE professional racing team in the 1990s to introduce a completely new road bike design called Compact Road, it forever changed the look and feel of racing and performance road bikes. The angled top tube (from the head tube to the seat tube) creates a smaller front and rear triangle, resulting in a lighter and stiffer bike. Another advantage of Compact Road geometry is that it makes it easier for riders to achieve the ideal riding position.
