Simon Withers
The Giant Contend 1 is a great road bike for the money in the competitive £1,000 market
Pros
- Excellent package
- slick groupset performance
- enjoyably rewarding ride
Cons
- The front end doesn’t absorb quite as much vibration as the rear
robwilmott
Brilliant all-round road bike that's comfortable and engaging to ride
The Giant Contend SL 1 is a superb bike for its price. The let-down is looks and weight but you can't really argue with that performance v price point.
Pros
- Price
- Handling
- Ride quality
Cons
- Weight
