Summary
The Giant TCR is celebrated for its stiff, light, and responsive frame, offering a comfortable ride that doesn't compromise on performance. It's noted for its excellent cornering and smooth rolling steadiness, especially with wider tyres, and represents extraordinary value for money. The bike's innovative features, like disc brakes and thru-axles, alongside its versatile and strong frame, make it a standout in the race category.
Stiff, light and responsive
Comfortable and easy to ride
Excellent cornering
Extraordinary value for money
Innovative with disc brakes and thru-axles
Carbon rims require some caution
Slightly less stiff and heavier than the TCR SL
Aesthetic of the compact frame may not appeal to everyone
the new TCR Advanced defies its branding (and all of the expectations that normally go with it) to challenge the best efforts of race-bred brands with much stronger pedigrees.
Cycling TipsQuick, nimble and stiff are all words I’d happily throw at the package.

The TCR Advanced has served in Giant’s road catalogue for over 10 years. However, the design of the frameset has been overhauled for 2016 with the goal of improving its stiffness to weight ratio. CTech editor Matt Wikstrom spent a few weeks riding the new TCR Advanced Pro 0 to learn what the new design has to offer.
