The All-Road Advantage

The Contend AR 1 is not just a road bike; it's a versatile explorer. By combining a Balanced Road Geometry with high-volume tires and the vibration-damping D-Fuse system, Giant has created a bike that stays fast on pavement while offering the stability needed for unpaved shortcuts and rough county roads.

*Giant reserves the right to change any component to an equivalent or superior part based on availability without prior notice. Weight may vary depending on frame size and final assembly.
