Giant Contend AR 2 - Luminous Lagoon

This modern all-rounder is built around a lightweight aluminium frame combined with a carbon fork, giving you control and comfort over long distances. The extra tyre clearance makes room for wide, high-volume tyres – ideal for unpredictable or changing road surfaces. The components are set up for everything you’ll meet on the road. The seatpost and cockpit provide compliant handling and lasting comfort when you push past your previous limits. Every distance, every type of road.

INSPIRED BY ENDURANCE
A D-Fuse Composite seatpost absorbs shocks and vibrations from the rear wheel, while an Advanced Composite fork reduces bumps at the front. These proven technologies from the high-performance Giant road bikes deliver extra ride comfort and help minimise fatigue on long tours. The Giant Approach saddle adapts to your body thanks to Particle Flow Technology. The high-volume, tubeless Gavia Fondo 2 tyres with 32 mm width allow for lower tyre pressure for better grip and a smoother ride feel. The tyres feature Race Shield Kevlar puncture protection to help prevent flats.

FULL CONTROL
An ergonomically shaped handlebar optimises comfort for your hands in every grip position – on the top bar, on the brake lever hoods and in the drops. The drop is set at 7.2 degrees, giving you more safety and control on descents and in corners. Hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent, well-modulated braking performance and help reduce hand fatigue on long descents. A proven Shimano drivetrain offers a wide gear range for an optimal cadence on changing terrain.
