Giant Road TCR can be found in a few colors, among these colors Yellow haze .
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 CSB Aero. Giant equiped this exact model with Shimano 105SC Dual Pivot brakes, Shimano 105SC levers braking system and Giant Carbon hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Giant used Giant CU92 aluminum material for the frame. Cinelli Touch-E high strength material is used on the handlebar of this TCR to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Mike Burrows Adjustable.
For the smoothest biking experience Shimano 105SC, 42/52 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to Sachs PC-41 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Giant, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano 105SC STI Dual Control gear shift levers.
