DESCRIPTION
Fast gravel is fun gravel. The bike of choice for Giant gravel racing pros, this superlight speedster delivers a smooth ride over rugged roads, and is adaptable to all types of conditions and riding styles.
Lightweight Efficiency
Advanced composite frame and Advanced SL composite fork save a combined 200g compared to previous generation. Updated geometry includes a lower bottom bracket, longer reach, and steeper head tube angle for improved acceleration and climbing.
Tuned Compliance
A lowered seatstay junction with smaller diameter tubes absorbs road shocks and vibrations. The Contact SLR D-Fuse carbon handlebar and D-Fuse seatpost work as a system to optimize compliance without sacrificing stiffness while cornering, sprinting and climbing.
Adaptable to the Terrain
A flip chip on the rear dropout adjusts the wheelbase: short for quicker handling, or long for improved stability at speed. The long setting also allows for larger diameter tires up to 53mm. You can choose the included D-Fuse seatpost for maximum compliance, or switch to a 30.9mm round or dropper post.

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.
