Giant bikes: living up to its name!

Giant certainly does its name justice - this huge Chinese quality brand is the largest bicycle producer in the world. The company, which was founded in 1972 beams out the Chinese principles of success: hard work, quality and perfection. The question is; what separates Giant bikes from the competition and makes it so unique?

What makes Giant bikes special?

The answer lies in how Giant has revolutionised bicycle sport. Advances through technical developments were achieved by the firm with the introduction of bicycle frames made out of carbon. The carbon material is extremely resilient and noticeably lighter than steel or even aluminium. Giant was one of the first companies to utilise this material in the 1980s in order to manufacture bikes under 10 kilogramms. The use of carbon made a distinct performance improvements possible both amongst pro's and hobby cyclists. In 1996 the company achieved the ultimate break through: Giant managed to make a bike completely out of carbon. This was made possible partly by the fact that Giant produces everything itself, and is thus not dependent on deliveries. A further advantage of total in-house production is that when it comes to servicing a Giant bike all parts are at hand.
