Aero performance, modern electronic shifting, and exceptional value
The 2027 Giant Propel Advanced 1 in Carbon brings the unmistakable speed and aerodynamic efficiency of the Propel platform to riders who want race‑ready performance at a more accessible price point. With its Advanced‑grade carbon frame, integrated cockpit, and the latest Shimano 105 Di2 drivetrain, this model delivers smooth electronic shifting, responsive handling, and impressive aero gains — perfect for fast group rides, crits, and weekend racing.
Advanced‑grade carbon for efficient, responsive speed
The Propel Advanced 1 uses Giant’s Advanced‑grade composite, engineered for excellent stiffness‑to‑weight performance and real‑world aerodynamic efficiency. Every tube is shaped using AeroSystem Shaping Technology, producing truncated‑ellipse profiles optimised for airflow across varying wind angles. The result is a bike that accelerates quickly, holds speed effortlessly, and remains stable in crosswinds.
Integrated aero cockpit for clean, efficient airflow
The Contact Aero integrated handlebar and stem create a sleek, drag‑reducing front end with fully internal cable routing. This not only improves aerodynamic efficiency but also gives the bike a modern, minimalist aesthetic. The geometry blends aggressive race positioning with long‑ride comfort, making the Advanced 1 versatile enough for everything from crit racing to endurance events.
Shimano 105 Di2: smooth, precise, and modern
Equipped with the latest Shimano 105 Di2 12‑speed groupset, the Propel Advanced 1 delivers crisp, reliable electronic shifting with the ergonomics and performance riders expect from Shimano’s Di2 platform. Paired with powerful hydraulic disc brakes, the drivetrain offers consistent performance in all conditions — ideal for riders stepping into electronic shifting for the first time.
Aero WheelSystem for speed and stability
The bike rolls on Giant’s aerodynamic wheel system, designed for efficient airflow, lateral stiffness, and confident handling. Tubeless‑ready rims paired with high‑performance tyres reduce rolling resistance, improve puncture protection, and enhance cornering grip — essential for high‑speed riding and technical descents.
Carbon: sleek, modern, and unmistakably fast
The Carbon colourway gives the bike a stealth‑inspired, performance‑driven aesthetic. Deep graphite tones highlight the sculpted aero lines of the frame, creating a finish that looks sharp, modern, and built for speed.
