2012 Editors’ Choice Plush Bikes: Giant Defy Advanced 1
Road-quieting rides with comfortable positions for long days in the saddle In winning its second consecutive Editors’ Choice award, the Defy confirmed its place among the best road bikes of any kind. We include it in the plush category because it has a slightly upright position, making it more comfortable for less flexible cyclists. Overall, the Defy is well suited to endurance-style riding.
