Road Frames

The heart of a light and versatile expedition bike, and the endpoint of our Hook platform. This titanium version retains the vigor of our hooligan tourer and distills it into a light and comfortable frame. Able to accommodate multiple-wheel sizes, along with myriad luggage configurations, it’s ready to be the centerpiece in any number of different builds. Paired with our light yet staunch full-carbon EXT V2 fork, this provides triple cage mounts, along with steadfast handling in rough conditions. HIGHLIGHTS: - Titanium 3Al-2.5V frame with T47 BB shell fender mounts and through axles. - Full carbon tapered fork with internal light cable routing, through axles and triple cage mounts. - Sram UDH derailleur hanger. - Toptube bag direct mounts, triple cage mounts on downtube and seattube for optimized bottle position, bottle cage mounts underneath the downtube, and rear rack mounts. - CNC yoke for maximum tire and chainring clearance. - Ovalized toptube for supreme steering precision and comfort. - Biaxially ovalized downtube for optimized power transfer and steering precision. - Front derailleur compatible. - 12 mm through axles front and rear.

Tom Ritchey rides about 10,000 miles per year, and he loves those long boundless rides where the surface changes from gravel to tarmac and everything in between. Combine that with his more than 40 years of designing and building bicycles, and it’s no wonder the Outback has become an icon in the gritty world of gravel and adventure bikes. Tom also loves to travel. Inspired by an inherent passion for experiencing different cultures and a ceaseless desire to explore the world by bike, Tom designed the new Outback Steel Break-Away® for those of us that appreciate the versatility of the Outback and possess the wanderlust to travel with it to far-off destinations – this bike is for everyone who has demanded a steel Outback Break-Away over the past few years. The Outback Steel Break-Away easily and quickly disassembles to fit into its own included sturdy travel case, which helps you avoid airline extra baggage fees. Once you arrive at your destination, the bike assembles with ease - allowing you to quickly get out and go. In addition to its liberating and innovative Break-Away design, the Outback Steel Break-Away sports several practical and adaptable features that offer riders the ability to chase epic ride experiences beyond the end of the road and the end of the day. Rack and fender mounts help to keep things dry and expand the load-carrying capacity for longer bikepacking adventures, while clearance for 700c x 48mm or 650b x 2.0in tires opens up a whole new world of possibilities. The frame accepts flat-mount disc calipers, and the new all-carbon fiber Ritchey Adventure Fork with multi-purpose mounts on the legs gives you more places to stow the supplies you gather at the last café – wherever that may be. - Quickly disassembles to fit into its own sturdy travel case, assembles with ease once you arrive at your destination - Heat-treated, triple-butted Ritchey Logic II tubing - Includes Ritchey WCS Carbon Adventure 12x100mm thru-axle fork - Fork features rack, fender and bottle cage mounts - Forged and machined straight head tube - Full length housing stops for use with cable or hydraulic brakes - Front and rear flat mount disc brake interface - 12x142mm rear thru-axle - Fits up to 700x48c or 650x2.0" tires - WCS headset included - Break-Away travel case, padding, hinge clamps, rear brake cable connector and derailleur cable connectors all included

CLIMB, CORNER AND DESCEND WITH SPEED AND EFFICIENCY. FROM THE MOUNTAINS TO THE FLATS, IN ALL TYPES OF CONDITIONS, THIS LIGHTWEIGHT COMPOSITE ROAD RACER TAKES YOU TO THE NEXT LEVEL. Class-leading efficiency - With an outstanding stiffness-to-weight ratio and updated aero tube shaping, this frameset is engineered for superior climbing capabilities, aerodynamic efficiency and sprint stiffness for race-winning performance. Advanced aerodynamics - This is where the TCR’s most quantifiable gains can be found compared to previous generation models. Every tube shape was analyzed, engineered and tested to create an overall structure with significantly lower drag at a wider range of yaw angles. Total control - Integrated disc brakes deliver smooth, powerful stopping power and modulation for added control in variable weather and road conditions. Flat mounts and new thru-axles boost stiffness and improve overall handling, while added frame and fork clearance allows for larger diameter tires up to 32mm. ADVANCED COMPOSITE TECHNOLOGY - Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction. OVERDRIVE 2 - The most advanced steerer tube technology in today’s Giant bikes. Designed to offer unprecedented front-end steering performance, the system’s oversized headset bearings (1 1/2” lower, 1 1/4” upper) and tapered steerer tube work in harmony to provide supreme steering stiffness. COMPACT ROAD DESIGN - Introduced by Giant with the professional Team ONCE in the 1990s, Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward sloping toptube (from the headtube to the seattube) creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit. POWERCORE - A massively oversized bottom-bracket/chainstay area features a fully integrated, 86-millimeter wide bottom-bracket design (92-millimeter wide for off-road bikes). Asymmetric chainstays provide additional stiffness on the driveside and stability on the non-driveside. VARIANT SEATPOST - This proprietary seatpost design offers an optimized balance of light weight, superior ride quality and simple adjustment to enhance the total race performance of the TCR road range.
