From its sleek, aero-inspired alloy frame and composite fork to its road-smoothing components and ergonomically designed cockpit, the new Contend SL makes performance road riding accessible to all. Speed through the city or join the group ride with more confidence, control and speed.

Features
Aero-Inspired Design: Aero-shaped down tube, composite fork, and internally routed cables reduce wind drag for greater efficiency, while the Giant ALP WheelSystem with 30mm aluminum rims offers lightweight durability for everyday road riding.
Command Control: Ergonomic handlebar with 7.2° flared drops enhances comfort and control in every riding position. Hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent braking performance with reduced hand fatigue, while the Shimano drivetrain with a 50/34T crankset delivers a wide gear range for varied terrain.
Smooth Comfort: Advanced-Grade composite fork absorbs road vibrations to reduce hand and arm fatigue. The ergonomic handlebar distributes pressure more evenly, while the D-Fuse seatpost and Giant Grit Core saddle with Particle Flow Technology improve shock absorption and riding comfort. High-volume 28mm tubeless tires allow lower tire pressures for enhanced grip and a smoother ride.
