Casually drops the best advertisement for Giant

I've had mine for nearly a year and I am delighted with it. No frills, no gimmicks, it just works. Worth every penny

Gotta love the D-Fuse seatpost but that integrated seat clamp is an astronomical PIA!!!

Giant is like Toyota, reliable, reasonably price, selling great volumes, nothing to complain about.

I do own Pinarello dogma f 12 and I just got this giant to use it as every day Bike I fell in love with it in the day one what an amazing bike highly recommended❤️

Only thing I like to complain about Defy is as an endurance bike it should offer more mounting bolts. At least a third water bottle cage or mudguard bolts? Bike design wise though it’s nothing short of awesome.

How would you say it compares to the Revolt when riding in the road?

[jbraMoVal]

I need to test ride any road bike. I been a mtb rider all my life but I really want to do faster and longer rides 😅 for sure a Giant

[jaybe]

Makes me want to buy a defy. What would be max tire clearance ? Is there even 42mm possible?

[thejeffinvade]

What level of defy do you have? Advanced SL with last generation of SRAM red?

[andreashjalmarsson]

What brand are those red/brown shades? Looks as nice as the bike 😁

With press fit BB this bike is not an option.
