A stiffer yet more compliant frame that's also lighter and more aerodynamic helped the all-new Giant Propel already claim a major stage win.
After logging a stage win at the 2022 Tour de France under Dylan Groenewegen, the new Giant Propel aero road bike was designed to be faster and lighter, particularly when combined with the new SLR cockpit and the Cadex 50 Ultra Disc wheels on the top model.
The new Propel had to be comfortable for the rider, but still lay down the power. So, the head tube, down tube, and bottom bracket junction are stiffer to reduce torsional and lateral flex, allowing more of the rider’s power to make it to the rear wheel. To reduce drag, the main tubes were given a truncated airfoil shape. Then they went a step further and designed custom water bottle cages for it, with different shapes for the down tube bottle versus the seat tube bottle.
The hoses run under the stem, shielded from the wind before passing through any spacers and the headset. The layout makes it easy to swap stems or adjust stack height., which use bladed carbon spokes and their new Aero Tire to further optimize overall aerodynamics. Available with Dura-Ace Di2, the Advanced SL model comes in at $12,500.
