performance Grade Giant Composite Technology framesets feature performance-grade carbon raw material formed by time-tested construction techniques. T-600 raw composite material is handcrafted using a modified monocoque construction technique. This eliminates the outermost woven composite sheet (found on Advanced SL- and Advanced-grade framesets) to produce a lightweight, stiff and compliant frameset with outstanding value.

Vector Seatpost Features: This full-composite, lightweight and highly aerodynamic seatpost is engineered specifically for the unyielding demands of the performance-minded road rider. Benefit: Increased fore/aft stiffness for maximum energy transmission, improved aerodynamics (compared to a traditional round seatpost), and two offset options (10 or 23 millimeters). PowerCore Features: A massively oversize bottom-bracket/ chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter-wide bottom-bracket design capable of accepting integrated bottom brackets. Joining the bottom bracket to the rear of the frame are asymmetric chainstays for additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside. Benefit: Outstanding pedaling stiffness for maximum efficiency. Custom Tuning Features: Hand-cut composite swatches are strategically laid-up, piece by piece, to create each frame. The frame’s ride qualities are meticulously crafted and controlled through precise layering of each individual swatch (there are more than 500 pieces per frame) in an exact schedule. Benefit: The direction of each individual piece’s composite grain allows Giant engineers to custom-tune each frame’s ride characteristics. The result is a careful balance of forgiving vertical compliance and efficient lateral stiffness for maximum performance and all-day comfort. OverDrive Features: An oversize headtube/fork-steerer- tube/headset area provides maximum steering precision without additional weight. The 1 1/8- inch top / 1 1/4-inch bottom headset bearings and tapered composite steerer tube are used in...
