Giant Defy Advanced Ultegra Di2 (2027)
Built for endurance, comfort and real-world road performance, the Giant Defy Advanced Ultegra Di2 is designed to help you ride longer, smoother and more efficiently. Perfect for sportives, long-distance training and rough UK roads, it combines lightweight carbon construction with advanced compliance technology to keep you feeling fresher for longer.
The Advanced-Grade Composite frame delivers an excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio while actively reducing road vibrations. Engineered for “quiet compliance,” the Defy smooths out imperfect surfaces and minimises fatigue—helping you maintain power and comfort over big miles.
Equipped with Shimano Ultegra Di2 electronic shifting, gear changes are fast, precise and effortless, allowing you to stay in rhythm across rolling terrain and long climbs. Hydraulic disc brakes provide confident, consistent stopping power in all weather conditions, giving you full control on descents and technical roads.
Designed specifically for endurance riding, the Defy features a more relaxed geometry for all-day comfort without sacrificing efficiency. Integrated compliance features such as the D-Fuse seatpost and cockpit work together to absorb shocks and vibrations, delivering a smoother ride quality on rough tarmac.
Rolling on Giant SLR 2 40 carbon wheels with tubeless technology, the bike offers excellent efficiency, grip and reduced rolling resistance. Increased tyre clearance (up to 35mm) adds versatility and allows you to run lower pressures for improved comfort and stability on unpredictable road surfaces.
Combining cutting-edge technology with a focus on long-distance performance, the Defy Advanced Ultegra Di2 is the ideal choice for riders who want to go further, stay comfortable and ride at their best.
