Featured Technologies

  • ALUXX Aluminium Technology: Using this high-performance frame material, the Contend AR 2 demonstrates a sturdy yet lightweight construction for a variety of road conditions and riding styles.
  • D-Fuse Technology: The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar, designed to operate cohesively, absorb shocks and vibrations for a comfortable, fatigue-free ride, no matter the distance.
  • OverDrive: Pioneered by Giant, this original oversized fork steerer tube technology is designed to guarantee precise front-end steering. Its oversized headset bearings and tapered steerer tube deliver optimum steering stiffness.
  • Compact Road Design: Brought into existence by Giant with Team ONCE in the 1990s, Compact Road transformed high-performance biking forever. Its downward sloping toptube creates smaller front and rear triangles for a more lightweight and rigid bike, all while providing excellent fit for riders of all sizes.
  • Tubeless System: Enjoy fewer punctures, enhanced traction, less rolling resistance and an overall smoother, swifter ride with the implementation of Giant's Tubeless System.
