Description

This Giant Contend AR 2 2024 is available with our legendary Podium Point free accessory scheme.

Giant's Contend AR builds on the popularity and success of Contend but with more capabilities for riding on rough roads. With disc brake integration, added frame and fork clearance (up to 38C) and Giant Tubeless System wheels offer there's the additional control and comfort required to tackle any road.

Built around a lightweight ALUXX aluminium frame with a full composite fork the Contend AR has an incredibly light fuselage. The full composite front fork gives a smooth ride whilst at the rear a D-Fuse composite seatpost dampens road vibrations producing a more enjoyable ride experience and minimising fatigue. The disc brake integration is seamless and includes flat mounts and 12mm front and rear thru-axles for more consistent braking power and better control, even in wet weather and on rough roads. Gear cables are also integrated for a super slick look.

The Contend AR's geometry has been designed to produce a balanced, all-rounder feel that blends confident rider positioning with agile cornering and acceleration. This is a true all-rounder for road riders who have a thirst for adventure.

Please note: This model features tubeless ready wheels and tyres which offer a superior ride and less rolling resistance than traditional innertubes. This system requires tyre sealant to function correctly and this will be fitted in our workshop prior to despatch. The nature of this sealant means that the tyre may not be fully sealed until it has been ridden a short distance and therefore the bicycle may arrive with reduced pressure in the tyres. Please check the bicycle's tyres are inflated to the recommended pressure before cycling.

Sizing information is provided as a general guide only. This is based on the average rider riding the bicycle in the style for which it is intended. This takes no account of a rider's personal proportions, physique, flexibility and biomechanics. If your height places you on, or near, a bicycle size step then we recommend you consider both sizes. All bicycles offer a range of handlebar and saddle adjustment which will enable you to fine tune your riding position once the correct size has been established. If you are unsure on sizing, we strongly recommend you visit our store so we can assist you. Pedal On offers advice and information on sizing in good faith, the final decision and responsibility on which size to purchase is yours.
