Giant says

Brought to you by the world s foremost aluminium frame engineers, Defy breaks all the rules of what was previously thought possible for an entry level road bike. With its ALUXX SL frameset, Defy is lighter, stiffer and better riding than many composite bikes on the market.

Owner Reviews

by H E Henden  on 7 Jun 2010
Because of my age. I wanted a bike with a triple chain ring, up front. So I could get up hills a bit easyer. I found the Giant Defy 3. For what I payed. Less than £625. I am very happy with it. Accept the saddle. It's like sitting on a blank. I went for the, White/Black/and Yellow one. It looks good and it rides well. I've even put tri bars on it and done a 10 mile. Hilly time trial on it. I won't be getting rid of it, ever.
