Read more: https://www.bikesandlife.com/products/giant-tcr-advanced-pro-1-road-bike In our early season review of the 2016 Giant TCR Advanced Pro 1 we show off this incredible all-around race road bike in it's natural environment: twists, turns, descents, and climbs. The TCR Advanced Pro 1 is nimble and reactive - a great sprinter and unreal climber. It was a pleasure to hit some fast turns and feel the firm connection this bike has to the road. The Giant TCR frame was fully redesigned for 2016 with a new advanced composite construction, redesigned Variant seatpost, and Giants own SL1 carbon wheelset. Believe me when I say this bike stuck to the road and was a rocket when you put the hammer down. One of the most incredible things about the TCR Advanced Pro 1 is how Giant was able to maintain their position of Best In Class for stiffness to weight ratio. That means that given the weight of the frame it transfers more power to the road than any other bike on the market. What's the takeaway? This bike is light, fast, and super reactive. It will be a pleasure to ride. If you're a data driven purchaser you have to check out the test results Giant summarizes on their website. Not to put a test ride down - they're the end all of research - but when you see the numbers it's hard to think badly of the TCR Advanced Pro 1. Stop in a Bikes and Life store and test ride the 2016 Giant TCR Advanced Pro 1 for yourself to feel the incredible performance they pack into this very reasonably priced $3200 bicycle. Take care and have fun!

Hey. Great review. I'm looking at the 2017 model. Any advice for bike size. I'm 5'8 , 30 inside leg. 59kg. The geometry and size charts for this bike are throwing me off a bit. Thanks.

What shoes are you wearing? They look awesome!

Will you all at Bikes + Life review the new 2017 line? I'm really looking closely at the TCR Advanced 2. It's got a fantastic value for a full carbon compact road frame with 105.

looks awesome, but I'm leaning more to the defy advanced pro 1.

Nice review - just as an aside, were you at NYCE Wheels before?

Just wanted to say thanks for an awesome review. I was in the market for a new road bike and after seeing your review I went and gave one a test ride. Needless to say I walked out of the shop with one of these machines and a huge grin from ear to ear.

Is it just me, or does the video look animated/like a video game? huh... good video , though!
-
What size frame are you riding in the vid?

This is a great review. Guys, keep up the good work. Beautiful location too... Looking forward to more road bike reviews!

This is not a review - at all. This is just a marketing video pandering to Giant in the hope they'll let you trial future stuff. Name me one thing in this video that isn't in the sale blurb on Giant's website. Any drawbacks? If I don't race the pro peloton I'm sure I can still ride a bike for less than $3200 - how is it good value then? Why should I buy the 2016 model over the 2014 model - surely its a significant saving?
Come back when you actually have a review -
Incredible scenery and bike! I've got the TCR Advanced SL 2 and I LOVE IT!

Damn that colour scheme is awesome! Looks a great highly tuned minimalist frame. Look like you get a lot of bike for the money
