Giant TCR Advanced 2 £2,000 giant-bicycles.com

COMEBACK KID The Giant TCR was one of the most iconic bikes of the Nineties. The Advanced 2 is the cheapest of the upgraded models, with a carbon frame and disc brakes. EXPERT OPINION Not only excellent value for money, this is as responsive as its reputation suggests. It’s a racer’s bike but comfortable enough for endurance riders, too.
