2022 Giant Stance E+ 2 M (Short)

New Advanced composite frame and Advanced SL composite fork save a combined 200 grams compared to previous generation. Updated geometry includes a lower bottom bracket, longer reach, and steeper headtube angle for improved acceleration and climbing.

New frame features a lower seatstay junction with smaller diameter tubes to absorb road shocks and vibrations. Contact SLR D-Fuse carbon handlebar and D-Fuse seatpost work as a system to optimize compliance without sacrificing stiffness while cornering, sprinting or climbing.

A flip chip on the rear dropout adjusts the wheelbase short for quicker handling, or long for improved stability at speed. The long setting also allows for larger diameter tires up to 53mm. You can choose the included D-Fuse seatpost for maximum compliance, or switch to a 30.9mm round or dropper post.

Features may include:

• ADVANCED COMPOSITE

High-performance grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction.

• FULL COMPOSITE FORK

New, lighter weight Advanced SL-grade composite fork with an OverDrive tapered steerer tube absorbs road shock and vibrations and allows added clearance for tires up to 53mm wide.

• D-FUSE TECHNOLOGY

Proprietary D-shaped composite seatpost and handlebar work together to dampen vibrations and absorb road shock, resulting in a smooth, compliant ride quality.

• OVERDRIVE

Designed to boost front-end stiffness and steering for precise handling, this oversized steerer tube technology features oversized headset bearings (1 1/4” lower and 1 1/8” upper) and a tapered steerer tube to provide optimal steering stiffness.

• SEATPOST (ADAPTOR)

New frame design allows you to switch from the proprietary D-Fuse seatpost to a standard round 30.9mm seatpost. This enables riders to choose any type of seatpost, including a dropper seatpost, depending on riding style and terrain.

• DISC-BRAKE INTEGRATION

The frame and fork are engineered specifically for disc brakes for reliable braking performance in all weather and road conditions.

• GIANT TUBELESS SYSTEM

Integrated Tubeless WheelSystem and tires delivers improved efficiency, comfort and control in the most user-friendly and reliable system.

• POWERCORE

A massively oversized bottom bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86mm wide bottom bracket design. Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside.

• FLIP-CHIP DROPOUT

Allows riders to quickly adjust the geometry and rear-wheel tire clearance with eccentric, offset two-position hardware in the rear wheel dropouts.

• INTEGRATED MOUNTS

Frameset features six water bottle mounts: two on the down tube, two on the fork, plus one each on the top tube and seat tube. Also includes a special adaptor at the seatpost for mounting a rack and is compatible with third-party setups so it’s easy to customize with fenders and other accessories.
