Experience smooth, swift cycling like never before with the 'Contend SL 1' from leading brand, Giant. Perfected for performance, this lightweight aluminium road bike will motivate you to reach new milestones and cover greater distances with each ride.

Balanced Road Geometry

Masterfully engineered, the Contend SL 1’s frame is meticulously designed to deliver a balanced feel. This ensures confident rider positioning combined with agile handling, enhancing your on-road cycle experience.

Smooth Ride Quality

Designed with an innovative D-Fuse composite seatpost, the bike absorbs road shocks and vibrations effeciently. The inclusion of a Giant WheelSystem also permits the usage of tubeless tyres up to 28mm, delivering a richer ride quality with a lower risk of flattening.

Lightweight Efficiency

The ALUXX SL aluminium frame makes this bike incredibly efficient. It excels at speedy acceleration and efficient climbing, ensuring comfort for intensive days of cycling.

Introducing State-of-the-art Technologies

ALUXX SL Aluminium Technology

Constructed primarily from 6011 alloy, state-of-the-art aluminium is utilised to deliver an unrivalled strength-to-weight ratio. The frame is carefully welded for enhanced ride quality and superior performance.

D-Fuse Technology

Contend SL 1 features a D-Fuse seatpost and handlebars that together work as a unified system, effectively absorbing road shocks and vibrations. This ensures better, faster, and more comfortable riding experiences for long distances.

OverDrive

OverDrive is Giant’s one-of-its-kind oversized fork steerer tube technology. It delivers precise front-end steering performance, thanks to its optimised headset bearings and tapered steerer tube, ensuring the optimal steering stiffness.

Compact Road Design

First introduced by Giant in collaboration with professional Team ONCE in the 90s, the Compact Road concept has redefined the landscape of high-performance road bikes. The design features a downward sloping toptube which results in smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also ensures a perfect fit for riders of all sizes.

Tubeless System

Experience fewer flats and higher traction with Giant's Tubeless System. The system reduces rolling resistance and provides a smoother, faster ride. The Contend SL 1 makes exploiting these benefits easier than ever before.
