Giant Defy Advanced 2 bike, carbon
Giant Defy Advanced 2 bike
The latest generation of Giant Defy Advanced models is designed for endurance road riding, offering unparalleled ride quality in its class. It is the ideal choice for long rides or gran fondo type races. The precisely constructed carbon frame and purpose-built components effectively absorb surface irregularities and minimize rider fatigue. The frameset achieves a perfect balance between high-performance reactivity and all-day comfort, thus providing an exceptional endurance road riding experience.Thanks to the special frame design for endurance riding, the bike ensures a smooth and efficient ride, reducing fatigue even on very long routes. Components designed for this purpose also contribute to further damping of road irregularities and vibrations. Ergonomically shaped handlebars are optimized for increased comfort and feature a flare for better control. Wide aluminum rims are ideal for wide tubeless tires, ensuring predictable control and stability on various types of surfaces, from asphalt to cobblestones.
- Frame material: Advanced Composite carbon
- D-Fuse component technology
- Contact D-Fuse handlebars with 8-degree flare
- Wide aluminum rims optimized for tubeless tires up to 38 mm
Especially suitable for sports enthusiasts who like to spend time on wheels after work or over the weekend. Suitable for regular riding and training. Usually fitted with components that are the golden middle when it comes to reliability and durability.
Carbon frame
Lightweight, stiff and at the same time still flexible material that absorbs shocks well and increases comfort. A higher price is to be expected.
Hydraulic disc brakes
Reliable in all conditions, better modulation of the braking effect with the use of less force on the lever. Heavier weight, more demanding service.

All bicycles at the MTBIKER shop are new, not-ridden, from an official distributor and with a full warranty. Several brands even offer a lifetime warranty on the frame after registration. We perform all warranty services in MTBIKER stores after personal delivery or after sending the bike (or its part) by courier.
- The bicycle is taken out of the manufacturer's box
- The bicycle is assembled, inspected and adjusted (front and rear derailleur, shock, fork, wheels,...)
- The bicycle is carefully packaged back into a box and shipped
- If you order a bike for in-person pick-up or home delivery, the bike will be waiting for you assembled and checked
- If you order a bicycle via courier to your home address, the following must be done at home:
- Take the bike out of the box and carefully remove safety material and foils
- Mount handlebar to stem (1 minute, 4 or 5 mm hex hey is needed).
- Mount front wheel to fork (1 minute, without the need of any tools if the bike has a quick release).
- Loosen the screws in the headset, straighten the stem with the front wheel, tighten the upper screw on the fork and then tighten the headset (2 minutes, 4 or 5 mm hex key is needed).
- Mount the pedals to the cranks while lubricating the thread and carefully mounting it the right way (1 minute, 8 mm hex key or 15 mm wrench).
- Mount seat post to frame (10 seconds, without needing any tools if the frame has a quick link).
- Inflate the tires or fork and shock to desired pressure (2 minutes, pump needed).
- Check the tightening of hex keys and quick-releases (2 minutes, 4 and 5 mm hex key is needed).
- Go for a test drive! Handle your bicycle carefully until you get used to it. If the bike has disc brakes, their performance will be limited from now on - they will gain their full power after 4-5 strong brakes at higher speed.
