MKP Recommends

Getting a Quarq power meter, wireless AXS shifting, and SLR 1 carbon wheels on a flagship Defy at $4,800 in as-new demo condition is strong value, since the power meter and carbon wheels together add well over the cost of a base build and there’s nothing to spend. Worth knowing the Defy is one of the most comfortable endurance platforms Giant makes, with the D-Fuse seatpost noticeably smoothing rough roads and clearance for 38mm tyres, so it suits a rider who wants a fast carbon bike that stays comfortable over the biggest days, essentially a new bike with power data already fitted at well under new price.
