Giant MCR bike review

Giant produced the MCR bike in 1998 and can be classified as a Road bicycle, this exact model costs in american market arround $2,600.00.
Giant Road MCR can be found in a few colors, among these colors Blue carbon fade .
This bike is equiped with 700 x 23c Michelin Bi-Synergic tires and Giant Carbon Spoke carbon fiber spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Rigida SCB Aero. Giant equiped this exact model with Shimano 600 Ultegra Dual Pivot brakes, Shimano 600 Ultegra levers braking system and Giant Carbon hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Giant used Carbon fiber composite material for the frame. Cinelli Touch-E high strength material is used on the handlebar of this MCR to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Mike Burrows Adjustable.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano 600 Ultegra, 39/53 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-HG92 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Giant, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano 600 Ultegra STI Dual Control gear shift levers.
