Exceptional Stability

  • Our frame design ensures a balanced, all-rounder feel, effectively combining assured rider positioning with the agility needed for cornering and accelerating.

Supreme Comfort

  • The unique D-Fuse seat post is specifically designed to minimise the impact of road shocks and vibrations. What's more, the Giant WheelSystem allows for the fitment of tubeless tyres up to 38mm, enhancing ride quality and reducing the chance of getting a flat.

Complete Control

  • The incorporation of seamless disc brake integration, flat mounts and 12mm front and rear thru-axles, ensures consistent braking power. Stay in control regardless of weather conditions or uneven terrains.

Advanced Technology

  • Featuring ALUXX Aluminium Technology, this bike offers strong, yet lightweight construction for the perfect balance of speed and resilience.
  • The D-Fuse Technology in the handlebar and seatpost work synergistically to absorb road tremors, promising a smoother, speedier ride.
  • Giant's overdrive technology grants an oversized fork steerer tube for precision in front-end steering performance while the Compact Road Design results in a lightweight, rigid bike making it the perfect fit for riders of all sizes.
  • The Tubeless System is specially designed to reduce the likelihood of flat tyres, offering you smoother and faster rides.

This bike is more than a mode of transport; it transforms your daily ride into an adventure. No matter where your journey takes you, the 'Contend AR 3' by Giant makes getting there half the fun.
