Description
The Giant Propel Advanced 2 works to reduce drag and minimise the energy needed to ride and sprint at full speed, especially when it’s windy. The bike is one of the lightest of its kind on the market, with a concentration on sharp handling coupled with the proven aero performance.
This Giant Propel Advanced 2 comes with the latest version of the Shimano 105 groupset, the third-tier offering that has benefited from years of trickle down from the top end of Shimano’s component hierarchy.Giant is clued-up enough to know this, and the Propel Advanced Pro 2 is fitted with aerodynamic brake callipers both front and rear. The Giant branded TRP Speed Control SL braking system uses a calliper mounted to the back of the fork to keep the unrefined shape out of the wind. The braking performance is good and, with open access, the callipers are relatively easy to adjust.
In terms of pure speed, the Propel will happily allow the rider to sit down, tuck in and channel every muscular sinew into straight-line forward motion; the frame encourages it, even. The sculpted tube profiles are awash with kamm-tail shapes, and with the slightly dropped down tube and cut out in seat tube (designed to slicken airflow), it certainly looks aero. But the Computational Fluid Dynamics and wind tunnel testing that the Propel has undergone would suggest that Giant has scientific proof of it being so, too.
Condition
The frame does have a few imperfections and scratches where the paint has come off. This has not compromised the carbon at all. Please see the photos for a better idea on the condition. These were from transportation and the bike has not been crashed. The bike is mechanically sound and has brand new inner and outer gear cables. Brakes are nice and strong as well!
