Giant Contend AR 3 Road Bike In 2023 Black Chrome

Some roads are smooth, others are rough.

This smooth-riding all-rounder handles it all, taking you from the main route to more adventurous options with confidence and control.

Balanced road geometry – Frame is specifically engineered to produce a balanced, all-rounder feel that blends confident rider positioning with agile cornering and acceleration.
Smooth ride quality – Innovative D-Fuse seatpost reduces road shocks and vibrations, and a Giant WheelSystem lets you run tubeless tyres up to 38mm for a smoother ride quality and reduced risk of flats.
Total control – Seamless disc brake integration, including flat mounts and 12mm front and rear thru-axles, produces more consistent braking power for better control, even in wet weather and on rough roads.
