Designed for riders chasing speed on every ride, the Giant Propel Advanced 2 combines aerodynamic performance with confident handling and everyday ride comfort. Whether you’re pushing the pace on fast training rides, racing with friends or aiming for new personal bests, this aero road bike delivers efficient power transfer and impressive stability at speed.
The Advanced-grade composite frame is engineered to maximise stiffness and efficiency while reducing drag through Giant’s AeroSystem design. Shimano 105 2x11 gearing provides dependable shifting and a wide gear range suited to climbs, flats and fast descents. Hydraulic disc brakes deliver confident control in all conditions, while integrated cockpit components and tubeless-ready wheels help create a smoother, faster ride. With clearance for tyres up to 32mm, the Propel Advanced 2 balances pure speed with all-day comfort.
Instant Speed
In the moments when explosive speed matters most, the new Propel Advanced is quicker and more dynamic than ever. The frameset is lighter than the previous generation with greater torsional stiffness and pedalling stiffness—so you feel instantaneous reaction when you make your move.
Sustained Speed
A reengineered frameset and integrated components combine for a smoother ride when you’re rolling in the group or piling up training miles. The Vector seatpost offers greater compliance compared to the previous generation, while the fork and integrated cockpit absorb bumps and vibrations up front. And additional tyre clearance allows for high-volume tyres up to 32mm, further smoothing out the ride to help you maintain higher speeds with less fatigue.
Top-End Speed
The frameset, cockpit, wheels and tyres form a unified system that lowers total resistance when you’re pushing high speeds. The AeroSystem frame and integrated cockpit minimise drag, while the aero WheelSystem and tyres reduce rolling resistance. That means more speed for taking pulls, rolling off the front, or driving the pace across flats and over climbs.
