Technologies
Technologies of Giant Contend 1 Road Bicycle
ALUXX Aluminum Technology: This performance level frame material features 6061 alloy with single-butted tubes to produce strong, lightweight framesets for a variety of different bikes and riding styles.
D-Fuse Technology: The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar were designed to function as system, absorbing road shocks and vibrations so you can ride further, faster.
Overdrive: Giant's original oversized fork steerer tube technology. Designed to provide precise front-end steering performance, the system's oversized headset bearings (1 1/4" lower and 1 1/8" upper for road, 1 1/2" lower and 1 1/8" upper for mountain) and tapered steerer tube work in conjunction to provide optimal steering stiffness.
Compact Road Design: Introduced by Giant with the professional team ONCE in the 1990s, the Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward sloping toptube (from headtube to the seattube) creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit.
Tubeless System: Fewer flat tires. Greater traction. Less rolling resistance and a smoother, faster ride. Giant's Tubeless System makes it easier than ever to experience all these benefits.
