Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads I’m new to the Giant world so I’m just wondering if this a Propel Advanced SL 0 or 1? A bit thrown off by the Shimano 105 groupset and the ad title. Also, what are some things to look out for when inspecting? by Senior-Marketing3637 Bicycle Bike Right for me Which bicycle Which bicycle is right for me Which bike Which bike is right for me
Constant-Pen4041 on January 3, 2024 1:41 pm For around the same price you can get a canyon . I’ll link it below . Idk if it’s as aero but it’ll come with a warranty and it’s new .

MadAss5 on January 3, 2024 1:59 pm I’d probably focus on the giant gash. I wouldn’t ride it until it is repaired or given an OK by an expert. This is pretty much a parts bike.
SelectTadpole on January 3, 2024 2:06 pm Sooo. You wanna buy a used mechanical 105 group with a busted frame for the price of a decent new bike? Even if the carbon is ok (which it looks like it’s gashed itself in the pic to me) the paint still needs repair to protect it from UV exposure. Please pass on this bike IMO
Wend-E-Baconator on January 3, 2024 2:19 pm See if you can take it to a shop that does carbon for a look.
