2018 giant propel
Moderator: robbosmans
heard throught the grapevine new propel coming soon. read this post on another forum. anyone ww media know more ?
"The new Propel will be released before this years TdF. First bikes will be available in mid august, at least in Europe.
It's got new stems and aerobars, full integreation of all cable housings, and of course with disc or non discbrakes. Think of a Trek Madone, but with more edges and not as roundish. The design got an update too. The bikes a the Taipei Cycling Show had grafics similar to the liv Avow TT bikes."

I bet they will go for direct mount brakes as at least in my area, the few people who ever bought a Propel were always and only complaining about the brakes.
Found these on a japanese forum: https://tieba.baidu.com/p/5186238604
I guess there is no new frame for 2018?

It make sense! Looks like the one in the pictures is a lower end Propel, like a non pro advanced 2/3 version. Hopefully the pro/SL will have the new frame.

It looks aggressive and robust. Perhaps the sprinters have had alot of inputs in the design!?
