TCR-2 bike is available in many sizes such as Large , medium and small .
Giant Road TCR-2 can be found in a few colors, among these colors ONCE Yellow and Black .
This bike is equiped with 700 x 23c Hutchinson Carbon Comp tires and DT stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Mavic CXP 21, 32-hole. Giant equiped this exact model with Shimano 105 Dual Pivot brakes, Shimano 105 STI Dual Control levers braking system and Shimano 105 hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Giant used Aluxx SL aluminum material for the frame. Cinelli Altera high strength material is used on the handlebar of this TCR-2 to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Giant Alloy/Carbon.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano 105, 39/53 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Shimano CN-HG72 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Giant, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano 105 STI Dual Control gear shift levers.
