Giant Contend
Road Bikes

At Westbrook Cycles, we are proud to stock and supply a wide range of road bikes to all kinds of customers - and our range serves both different budgets and different capabilities and requirements. The Contend Range of Road Bikes from Giant perfectly compliments our range of road bikes suitable for those looking for a great entry level road bike, at a sensible price point. 

As this bike is aimed at entry level road cyclists, the bike is designed to offer both comfort, with a more upright riding position, alongside speed and handling of a race bike - offering cyclists the very best of both worlds. There are six models within the Contend range, all of which feature a wide selection of gears, ensuring the right gear is available for all kinds of climbs. This gearing is combined with compact chainsets. 

There are two different frame options available within the range. The SL models within the range features a frame made of Aluxx SL-Grade aluminium, which is built with a 6011 alloy which keeps the weight down, whilst retaining strength. The Contend SL range also features D-fuse seatposts, which makes a big difference when cycling over rougher and mixed terrain. On the more budget friendly Contend range, the frame is constructed from single butted 6061 alloy tubes. All models are fitted with a hybrid composite fork, which perfectly balanced comfort and control. 

Lastly, the frames also have mudguard and rack mounts - meaning this bike can be used for touring, commuting, as well as winter training. The wheels on the Contend range has been designed and manufactured by Giant themselves. All Contend bikes are supplied with wheels which provide the perfect balance between comfort and control - with all wheels being absolutely fine for riding on rough surfaces. All Contend bikes also feature tubeless tyres and wheels, allowing riders to enjoy their ride protected from punctures. 

Overall, the Contend range provides a good riding position and versatility which allows the Contend range of road bikes to be ridden and enjoyed across a wide range of services, for an even wider of purposes. Everything from touring to the commute is covered.
