Here is a link to Giants own report comparing their 2009 TCR Advanced SL
for weight, stiffness and comfort with rival frames:

Trek Madone 6.9
Specialised Tarmac SL2
Cannondale Super Six team
Cervelo R3
Look 595
Canyon F10
Scott Addict SL

Radar diagram format, and its a 4mb download file.

As you would expect Giant comes out on top in its own report although the actual numbers are not quantified at all so take everything with a pinch of salt if so inclined.

Nevertheless - its interesting and worth a look.

    What a load of marketing crap - They have missed a few top offerings like the Kuota's, Skil-Shimano, Orbeas and BH.

    Same results as the Microsoft funded test on Browser security that found IE8 the most secure.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
