[rabobank89]

Mmmm..

Really loving the colour schemes for 2015.. Might spoil myself on a Defy Advanced when they get on special..

Some of the higher end stuff;

Talk about beauty being in the eye of the beholder, all of those paintjobs look absolutely awful to me. I still like the basic shape of the Propel though.

I am waiting to see which defy's make it to aus but pretty keen on one!

The range is already released in Aus. Check out your Giant Store.

Yeah I don't have taste..

[Cmm]

Will do. Was in one the other day only had a new propel would want to see the defy in the flesh as its completely new

[Duck!]

The local website has finally been updated, so you can now see exactly what's on offer here now.

What did you get...?

Am I right in that they have changed the Giant font on the bikes? I Don't like it - kind of reminds me of 80s video games font!

However give me one of those Defy Pro 0s in all black with a black saddle and black bar tape and I'd me more than happy. That's one hot bike. Maybe next year or 2016 when the price comes down a bit.

[rabobank89]

Yeah new logo font...

All black would be nice and elegant.. Rather be seen so the brighter the better

[rodneycc]

You'd be right at home with the orange then Rabo

I have gone with a defy pro 2. The pro 0 was a little disappointing in person I prefer the matte black/white of the 2.

The one running 105? Did you pay full RRP?

Well that saves me writing exactly the same thing lol.

[Cmm]

Rabo yeah the one running full 105 retail was $2700 didn't pay that though

That Propel Advanced Pro 0 is mighty tempting.................

Makes me glad I bought my Propel this year. Much prefer the white and lime green to any of these colour schemes.

Not sure about the roadies, but I like that Anthem... black fork stanchions - Pike??

[edit: nope. SID is still quite tasty, though...[/edit]

I picked up the advance pro 0 last week. I like the black more than most of the other colours, also comes with the Di2 and hydro brakes

[armara]

just finished 50km on the new one. much nicer to ride but heaps of noise in the shifters on bumpy roads (that's all the roads where I live). brakes should have bedded in by now but are still a bit soft. not very good compared to my xt's. the shop will look at it tomorrow so will see how it goes then.

reportedly

remove the hood covers and glue a small piece of rubber onto the top of the brake lever, where it smacks into the hood’s cross pins. A very inelegant solution.

Agree with you mate, Giant had the paint/logo' nailed for a few years there but have taken a step back into the horror paint jobs of the past. Quite happy with my black & red 2014 SL

I was considering either the Trek Superfly 8 or the 2014 XTC 29er 1, and to be honest - other things being equal - the aesthetics of the latter was a big factor in my decision. Once I'd made up my mind, I discovered that the 2014 model was no longer available in my size, but then I was equally enamoured by the 2015 XTC Advanced 29er 1 (my final choice). It is, IMHO, a seriously handsome bike!

[thelittlebattler]

Don't know how 2015 they are (they certainly look very shiny), but there was a lot of Propels kicking around the crits tonight. I have to say, they looked mighty cool.

I would buy one in a heartbeat, until I remember that the monkey that would sit on top of it was not built in a wind tunnel.
