This suggests M/L. With a shorter stem, L may also work for a less aggressive fit.

Frame has arrived!
Advanced Pro Model in the Carbon Colourway, size M/L
Frameset (with front and rear derailier hangers) - 992g
Fork (un-cut) - 381g
Seat Post - 193g



Did a mock-up with the parts I have so far. Just really want the groupset to arrive, but maybe after I finish the drywall work

I'm assuming your weights didn't include the thru axles? Thanks.

Just received my TCR Advanced Pro with new Ultegra di2 yesterday.
The bike looks stunning and I can't wait to try it outside.

I just notice a little bulge with a crack in the paintjob around where the front brake caliper is mounted. Is there anything to worry about?

Probably not, but I would still have the shop inspect it and make sure. If I got that bike, I would want it to be perfect...

Hello all,

I recently upgraded my TCR Advanced 2 2017 with a cute, clean-looking Contact SLR integrated Bar
https://www.giant-bicycles.com/int/cont ... p-bar-2020
it rides great, provides comfort, stifness and my hands finally do not get numb after a while. It also looks nice and clean.
But, spending so much $$$ and affection on a purchase (this one is not easy to buy!) i'd like it to perfectly fit my bike.
Unfortunately, standard round spacers provided in line with basic alloy stem make the bar look a bit bulky a turkey-necked.

Any idea guys if there are any dedicated spacers to provide complete look and full adjustment? There is one producct to match withAero integrated bar, but the clamp side has quite a different shape than that of a non-aero bar so they do not fit.

How do find the ride comfort of the Tarmac SL6 to the Giant TCR Advanced? Cheers.

This is a post from a rider with both bikes (disc version). The rim brake TCR is reportedly more comfortable than the disc.

Thanks, but:
1. This are obviously suited for TCR 2021 and my model is 2017.
2. That's obviously for OD2 tube and mine is OD ( 1 1/8'). I can only find one bloc alloy adapter.
3. There's no cone in the set.
4. It's mostly about the compatibility with the stem part of the bar and not the headtube.

Thx for your time. Regards

Congrats! Very nice.

What did you use to wrap the right brake cable and shift wire together?

Thanks! I used shrink hose on the cables. The di2 cable is visible the last 10cm under the handlebar.

Are the 9170 levers with the 9270 calipers working well?

Never thought of doing that...
