TCR Advanced Pro 1 components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a carbon one, so, it is super light and stiff. In conclusion, a carbon fork gives you great control when steering, and is also more forgiving.
Wheels
The TCR Advanced Pro 1 2015 bike is equipped with 700c aluminum wheels when leaving the factory. These are the most popular wheels for road, aero, gravel, cyclocross, race, and gravel bikes. However, while they give you great speed and control, these wheels are not so bump-friendly.
Brakes
For your safety, it is important to have quality breaks on your bike. Giant TCR Advanced Pro 1 has Rim brakes installed. Rim brakes deliver an average performance overall. However, they are not nearly as effective as hydraulic brakes are.
Sizes
TCR Advanced Pro 1 comes in 6 sizes, that range from 155 cm – 200 cm (5.09 ft – 6.56 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
