PRODUCT DETAILS
GIANT DEFY ADVANCED 2 2025 - CARBON
With effortless efficiency and quiet compliance, this lightweight endurance road machine helps you ride stronger and longer.
The composite frame and purpose-built components smooth out rough roads and minimise fatigue.
SIMPLE IS BEST
Free of cumbersome gimmickry, the frameset is one of the lightest in its category. With a perfect balance of high-performance reactivity and all-day comfort, it offers a “less is more” experience for modern endurance road riding.
COMFORT
Advanced-grade composite frame and fork are specifically engineered for endurance road riding, delivering a smooth and efficient ride quality that minimises fatigue on long rides.
The new D-Fuse components work together to further absorb road shocks and vibrations.
SHIMANO 105
Shimano’s latest 12-speed 105 family reinvigorates road cycling with its completely refreshed interface and premium mechanical shifting.
The ergonomic Dual-Control Levers accommodate a wide range of hand sizes, while the drive-train’s sub-1:1 gear ratio provides excellent climbing options.
It’s perfect for recreational road cyclists who don’t want to compromise on performance.
