Expirience with the Giant GLORY ADVANCED

Ludwig Döhl It's been a few years since Danny Hart became world champion on a Giant Glory and yet this bike is still legendary. Now the Taiwanese have raised the GLORY ADVANCED to the latest level. Thanks to a moderate 61,6 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Giant puts a lot of trust in its products.
