Is Giant propel advanced carbon 1?
Advanced Composite Technology Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio.
Is Giant Propel good for climbing?
Climbing performance is more dependent on the rider than the bike, but I have a 6.5kg Giant Propel Advanced SL (non disk). It climbs well despite having 55mm deep wheels fitted. A stiff BB for good power transfer and feedback makes it feel really responsive to input. Stiff fork helps too.
Is propel faster than TCR?
The propel likely climbs about as fast as the tcr, unless the finish line is at the top of a very very very tall mountain, which it very rarely is. Most of the time the propel will come out ahead even on undulating courses. But speed comes as a price.
Is Giant propel an Aero bike?
The Giant Propel Advanced is an aero road bike. With UCI approval it is race-ready. The bike is offered with disc brakes and quality Shimano or SRAM groupsets, depending on the model. The bike is best for flat and rolling terrain.

Is the giant propel advanced 1 a fast bike?
The Propel Advanced 1 is a very fast bike (for people who object to a bike being described as ‘fast’, that means that for a given power input it is quick compared to competitors). Tuck yourself down on the drops, hit the pedals hard and you’re rewarded with impressive speed for your efforts.
How big is the stack on a giant propel?
The stack (vertical distance from the centre of the bottom bracket to the top of the head tube) is 566mm and the reach (the horizontal distance between those points) is 391mm. It’s an aggressive (but not crazy) geometry that’s exactly the same as Giant uses for its higher level Propels and very similar to that of the TCR lightweight race bikes.
What’s the difference between the propel advanced 1 and SL?
This thing can really shift. Although the materials are different, the Propel Advanced 1 is a very similar design to Giant’s top level Propel Advanced SL – the only distinction is that the SL version has an integrated seatpost.
Is the giant propel a wind tunnel bike?
In fact, the Propel is built around the mantra of being for the rider, and not to satisfy wind tunnel engineers – the fact that it’s also so damn fast makes this technical marvel a very worthy competitor. The downside of such a brilliantly realised chassis is that it takes up plenty of the overall budget of the bike’s specifications.
