SMOOTH, FAST AND FUN. THIS VERSATILE ALUMINUM ROAD BIKE HAS BEEN REVAMPED TO GIVE IT A WELL-ROUNDED PERFORMANCE RIDE QUALITY. IT’S THE PERFECT CHOICE TO HELP YOU PUSH THE PACE, RIDE MORE MILES, AND EXPAND YOUR ROAD RIDING EXPERIENCE.

Designed for aspiring riders aiming to ride a little faster and go a little farther, Contend offers a smooth, efficient ride quality and a quick, agile feel on the road. The innovative D-Fuse seatpost helps reduce road shocks and vibrations, and there’s enough frame and fork clearance to run wider tires (up to 32mm) to further smooth out the ride. Engineered and built in Giant’s industry-leading aluminum forging facility, it’s a true all-rounder for ambitious road riders.
