2016 v 2017

Postby 1Rowdy1 » Wed Feb 22, 2017 2:20 pm

Hi can anyone tell me apart from the paint job, is there a difference in frame quality between the 2016 and 2017 Giant Advance 2. Thanks for any help

Which series? There is an Advanced 2 variant in numerous model ranges.
I had a thought, but it got run over as it crossed my mind.

That clarifies it. No, there isn't. The frames are exactly the same under the paint, and pretty much all the running gear is unchanged as well.

Which should mean better bang for buck if you can source a '16 in your size
