Based off recommendations was looking at a new giant contend. Considering the similar price points is this a better pick-up? Maybe getting in over my head as someone new to this. Thanks for any insight
Unfortunately I don’t think so. This is about as aggressive as race bike geometry gets. It is actually a time trial frame that someone has put drop bars on. And it is slammed, meaning that there is no room for adjustment in terms of fit.
I would recommend something a little more upright and with plenty of room on the steer tube so you can hone in your fit.
ruffins on
Yeah extremely agressive and looks like many proprietary parts aswell
