Our take
The 2017 Giant Defy Advanced looks like a very capable endurance road bike, particularly with its lightweight carbon fiber frame. The hydraulic disc brakes are a definite plus for all-weather stopping power and control, a modern feature that enhances safety and performance. Paired with 700C wheels and drop bars, it's clearly built for covering miles efficiently. While it's a few years old now, the carbon frame and hydraulic discs still offer excellent value. The red color is quite striking, though aesthetics are always personal. For riders seeking a comfortable yet performant road bike, this model is worth considering.
