At Escapa, we have the perfect bike frames for you from top brands like Factor.
The Giant TCR Advanced SL 25 Frame is the ultimate foundation for a professional-level road bike. It’s built for competitive road cyclists obsessed with performance—from Grand Tour pros like Simon Yates to amateur riders looking to take their game to the next level. The flagship TCR model combines its legendary ride quality with the integration of new systems and construction methods to make it more efficient than ever. The down tube has been significantly redesigned to improve aerodynamics; internal cable routing further minimizes aerodynamic drag, and with the integrated seatpost, every component has been carefully selected and tested to optimize the system.
The Giant TCR Advanced SL 25 frame is a WorldTour-level race frame—the pros’ choice for all-around performance. The new TCR flagship utilizes innovative system integration and construction methods to deliver a clear advantage on the road
Advanced T800 Carbon Technology
Raw, professional-grade carbon fiber is woven at Giant’s in-house carbon factory using our most advanced engineering and manufacturing methods, including: Continuous Fiber Technology for greater strength and lower weight; Carbon Nanotube Resin Technology that improves impact resistance; and the Fusion Process for lighter, stronger frame joints.
Compact Road Design
Introduced by Giant in the late 1990s for the professional Team Once, the Compact Road design forever revolutionized the look and performance capabilities of competition road bikes. A top tube that slopes downward (from the head tube to the seat tube) reduces the size of the front and rear triangles, allowing for a lighter and stiffer bike. Furthermore, it makes it easier for men and women of all heights to find a bike that fits them.
Integrated
Designed as a key performance factor for the frame as a whole, the integrated seatpost saves up to 45 grams in weight compared to standard carbon seatposts, while improving aerodynamics and offering greater comfort on the road.
OverDrive Aero
Located inside the head tube of the new Propel lineup, the D-shaped fork steerer tube and corresponding spacers provide an extremely aerodynamic and easier-to-maintain system for integrated brake and derailleur cables.
Integrated Aerodynamics
All tube shapes were designed and developed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling and wind tunnel testing. From the truncated ellipse shape of the frame tubes to the new Cockpit design and component integration, everything contributes to a more aerodynamic profile that gives the frame an aerodynamic advantage of 2.28 watts over the previous generation.
Winning Efficiency
With a higher stiffness-to-weight ratio than the previous generation, combined with a new aerodynamic tube shape and a lighter overall weight, this uncompromising race bike delivers explosive acceleration and unwavering pedaling stiffness. The result is winning performance when it counts.
