First Place!!! Bicycling Magazine's Editor's Choice Award!

The cream of the crop, the pick of the litter, the best thing since sliced bread... However you say it, our Giant for Women Avail Advanced 2 is tops in the “Women’s Enthusiast Road” category.

Here are a few of the editors’ reasons why: “As nicely as the Avail Advanced 2 suited our bodies, with its compact frame, women’s saddle and short-reach shifters and levers, it also matches the way many women ride. It’s built with performance-oriented components, especially the Shimano 105 group, that make us trust every part to do what we ask it to do, but the relaxed geometry and carbon frame kept us comfortable no matter how far or fast we rode.” There’s more: “…The Avail Advanced 2 proved easy to power up the hills and motor along the flats, as well as stable on the downhills, and it reacted nimbly in corners. And when we needed to shave speed or stop suddenly, the Shimano 105 brakes offered solid power. …The Giant’s frame and componentry add up to the top all-around performance.”

Superb!
