The Giant TCR Advanced Pro 2 is the high-performance enthusiast’s choice in the 10th-generation TCR lineup, offering the perfect blend of race-ready speed and mechanical reliability. While it shares the same world-class Advanced-grade composite frame geometry as its higher-tier siblings, the Pro 2 is designed for the purist who prefers the tactile feel and ease of maintenance of a mechanical drivetrain. The 2026 model benefits from Giant’s updated AeroSystem Shaping, which uses truncated ellipse tubing to shave seconds off your solo efforts without compromising the bike's legendary stiffness-to-weight ratio.
A standout upgrade for the Pro series is the OverDrive Aero integration. Even with a mechanical setup, the hydraulic hoses are routed internally through the Contact SL AeroLight stem and handlebar, creating a sleek, aerodynamic profile that was previously the domain of electronic-only builds. Equipped with the latest 12-speed Shimano 105 groupset and high-performance Giant SLR 2 40 Carbon wheels, the TCR Advanced Pro 2 is a lightweight, aggressive climber that doesn't need a battery to win a sprint or conquer a mountain pass.
