Giant tcr composite 3

Ideally, you should buy a bike that fits and pleases you, not based on a comment by a stranger on the internet.

Giant churn out reliably excellent bikes year after year but I'd suggest you compare it with Specialized, Trek and other similarly priced models before you decide (on the shop floor, don't just look at spec sheets).

If you want all day comfort why not consider a Defy?

I bought the TCR Comp 2 to replace my current Alum bike in Jan after hearing so many good things about Giants and TCR's. Had looked at the similar priced Focus, Spesh, Trek etc but couldnt hand over my cash quick enough once I seen the Giant in the flesh. So far managed a couple of outings on it a few weeks back over the North Yorkshire Moors, one 80 mile very hilly and the other a 85 mile flatish and quick. All I can say is what a bike! Light, fast, climbs brilliant, comfortable, so, so smooth and brilliant Ultegra shifting. The Aero frame looks like it belongs on a bike costing twice the price. Top bike for the money.

I have a Giant TCR C (the 3 refers to the components used; 0 or 1 being best components. C for composite) mine was built up from a frame with Shimano Ultegra components. It is a great bike; have covered a fair few miles with no complaints. It feels good and tight I would definately recomend.

yes I have got one and really like it. Bit unsure as I use Campag gear and this came with Shims but no regrets!

Comfy and twitchy enough to avoid the potholes.....

Think it's this that a lad on the club run has. It only surfaced last week when the sun came out. He loves it, but i can't tell you much more than that.
