MKP Recommends

Shimano Ultegra on a flagship carbon endurance frame at $1,900 is genuinely strong value, and the Defy is one of the most comfortable endurance platforms Giant makes, with the D-Fuse seatpost noticeably smoothing rough roads. Worth knowing the frame clears tyres up to 38mm, so a rider can run wider rubber for extra comfort and grip on rough roads and light gravel, making this a fast carbon bike that stays comfortable over the biggest days and handles rougher surfaces too, with the wheels an easy upgrade path down the line.
