About Giant Contend AR 2 2025
Break out of the box and expand your road riding adventures. From smooth pavement to bumpy backroads, this ultra-capable road bike has built-in compliance and high-volume tyres, so you can ride any road with confidence and control.
Key Performance Factors
Balanced Road Geometry: Frame is specifically engineered to produce a balanced, all-rounder feel that blends confident rider positioning with agile cornering and acceleration.
Smooth Ride Quality: Innovative D-Fuse seatpost reduces road shocks and vibrations, and a Giant wheelset lets you run tubeless tyres up to 38mm for a smoother ride quality and reduced risk of flats.
Total Control: Seamless disc brake integration, including flat mounts and 12mm front and rear thru-axles, produces more consistent braking power for better control, even in wet weather and on rough roads.
