Giant has updated the Revolt gravel bike with integrated down tube storage, internal cable routing and new compliance-improving finishing kit.\u00a0<\/p>

Available in Advanced Pro and Advanced carbon layup options at launch, the 2022 Bike of the Year winning bike<\/a> is, otherwise, unchanged.\u00a0<\/p>

Prices start at \u00a32,499 \/ $N\/A \/ \u20ac2,499 \/ AU$3,199 for the base Shimano GRX-RX400-equipped Revolt Advanced 3, rising to \u00a35,599 \/ $7,000 \/ \u20ac6,499\/ $8,499 for the top-spec Revolt Advanced Pro 0.\u00a0<\/p>

Integrated routing<\/h2>
Like the tenth-generation TCR<\/a>, the new Giant Revolt features fully integrated cable routing.\u00a0<\/p>
Gear cables and brake hoses are routed through the handlebar, hollowed stem and specially-shaped headset spacers, before heading into the frame. This offers \u201cuncluttered cockpit aesthetics and improved aero performance\u201d according to Giant, although we know it won’t be popular with all riders.<\/p>
$\"New$
Tools and spares can be stored inside the down tube. – Giant<\/figcaption><\/figure>
The Revolt also now has integrated down tube storage. This is accessed via a locking lid beneath the bottle cage mounts. Giant hasn\u2019t specified the capacity of the storage chamber.<\/p>
With the exception of these new features, the new Revolt\u2019s silhouette is nearly identical to the outgoing bike.\u00a0<\/p>
Comparing the two bikes side-by-side, the down tube appears marginally beefier and the raised seat cluster is also less pronounced, but there\u2019s very little in it.<\/p>
$\"New$
The latest super-slim D-Fuse seatpost was introduced on the latest Defy. – Giant<\/figcaption><\/figure>
Slimmer seatpost<\/h2>
The new Revolt adopts the D-Fust seatpost first seen on the Defy (our 2024 Road Bike of the Year<\/a>).\u00a0<\/p>
This is slimmed and flattened from its D-shaped profile just below the saddle clamp to improve rear-end compliance, according to Giant.<\/p>
A conventional 30.9mm-diameter round seatpost<\/a> (including dropper posts<\/a>) can also be used with a shim.<\/p>
$\"New$
The new Revolt has clearance for 53mm tyres in the ‘long’ setting. – Giant<\/figcaption><\/figure>
Flip chips<\/a>, which provide 10mm of fore and aft chainstay length adjustment, carry over from the last bike. Running these in the long position increases the bike\u2019s tyre clearance to 53mm.\u00a0<\/p>
Rack, mudguard and ample bottle cage mounts also carry over from the previous-generation Revolt.<\/p>
Revolt Advanced Pro vs Revolt Advanced<\/h2>
The Advanced and Advanced Pro models of Giant’s TCR and Propel road bikes<\/a> are differentiated by the integrated seatpost and higher-grade carbon layup on the more expensive Advanced Pro.\u00a0<\/p>
The Revolt Advanced and Advanced Pro are only differentiated by the layup \u2013 features such as integrated storage, fully internal cable routing and accessory mounts are retained across both levels.\u00a0<\/p>
Giant hasn\u2019t specified the weight difference between the two.\u00a0<\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n
