Why the Giant Propel?
The Giant Propel was designed with meticulous attention to detail. Its frame, optimized through advanced CFD and wind tunnel analysis, features strategically modified sections in the head tube, down tube, and bottom bracket, emphasizing stiffness for enhanced power transfer. However, Giant didn't stop at sheer stiffness; the Propel series recognizes the importance of real-world performance. The rear half of the bike has been carefully re-engineered to introduce a balanced level of compliance and control, ensuring a smooth and responsive ride quality. The result is a cutting-edge road bike that seamlessly combines aerodynamics, power, and versatility, making the Giant Propel a formidable choice for cyclists seeking top-tier performance on every ride.
Technical Details
When we talk about getting more aerodynamic, it's not just about the frame – it's the whole package. The Propel Advanced bike isn't just sleeker; it's now paired with the Contact SLR Aero handlebar and stem, along with CADEX 50 wheels and CADEX Aero tires. When you put it all together and compare it to the older version, the new model save you 6.21 watts, that's a 27 second savings at 40kph over a 40km.

Frame Sizing
The sizing chart is a great place to start when picking your next bike but everyone will fit a bike a bit differently. Your torso, arm, and leg lengths all play into what size of bike you may need. Plus, there's your own personal preference.
We always recommend swinging by the shop and taking the bike that you're looking for a spin to see how it feels. If you're unable to come by, looking at the geometry of your current bike and comparing it is a good place to start. If you have any further questions, our customer service team is there to help.
