    Why BikeRadar Loves It<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    BikeRadar\u2019s rigorous testing process has highlighted several reasons why the Giant Defy Advanced Pro 2 stands out from the competition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “The Giant Defy Advanced Pro 2 is our Road Bike of the Year winner for 2024, also winning the Endurance Bike of the Year award in the process. Giant\u2019s latest generation of its endurance-focused Defy got sportier, smoother and lighter at the flagship SL level, and this Pro model is just as impressive for a lot less cash.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
