Samenvatting

The Giant Contend series is celebrated for its endurance geometry, offering a comfortable and upright riding position ideal for long rides and newer cyclists. Its aluminum frame and D-Fuse seatpost provide a smooth ride, absorbing road vibrations effectively. While it may not match the speed of race-specific models, its versatility, value for money, and reliable performance make it a standout choice in the endurance category.

Pros
  • Endurance geometry for comfort

  • High-quality aluminum frame

  • D-Fuse seatpost for vibration management

  • Versatile for various terrains

  • Great value for money

Cons
  • Heavier than race-specific models

  • Components may lack efficiency compared to higher-end bikes

  • High-speed handling not as precise

Key Quotes
this frame is on par with other aluminum road bikes I’ve ridden that are twice its price
Bicycling
The Contend bikes have an endurance geometry: less aggressive than a race rig and more comfortable for a rider who hasn’t yet developed the racer’s flexibility.

Giant Contend AR 1 2020 review: Fresh and affordable all-road - CyclingTips

okt 2019 · Dave Rome

If the lines between road and gravel bikes were already blurry, then the way things are trending is likely to confuse you even further. All-road bikes are relatively new and aim to do everything a good endurance-style road bike does, albeit with a pinch of additional versatility. As the name suggests, they’re designed to handle […]

Hoogtepunten
  • Impressively composed ride, meets All-Road name, quality features, tubeless tyres, wide-range gearing.

Dieptepunten
  • Fussy thru-axles, loosely-captured hub end caps, rattly shifters, versatility comes at the expense of weight.

Giant Contend SL 2 Disc review

mei 2017 · Matthew Loveridge

The brake system will put some off, but the Contend SL is a great all-rounder. Buy if you want a comfortable distance machine with most of the advantages of hydraulic discs

Hoogtepunten
  • Excellent all-round ride quality, braking performance

Dieptepunten
  • Complex brake setup, boring paint job
