Giant Defy Advanced 2

The Giant Defy Advanced 2 is a value-leading endurance road bike. Its 105 drivetrain follows classic road wear curves, mile for mile.

Service Intervals
Chain: check every 500 mi, replace at 2,000-2,500 mi Cassette: replace every 2-3 chains Tires (32c): replace at 2,000-3,000 mi Brake pads: replace at 1,500-2,500 mi Full tune-up: every 12 months or 2,500 mi

Intervals assume mixed road riding. Wet climates and heavier riders trend to the low end of each range.

Track it automatically

Saddle connects to Garmin, Wahoo, and Strava, counts every mile on your bike, and tells you when each component is actually due. Then it books the work at your local shop in one tap.
