Anybody riding a Giant Tcx ? . Looking at a tcx slr1 with rival 1 for off road and around local parks and trails .How do they ride ? Are they really just a good cx bike or would some ‘gravel riding’ be decent on it ?

    I currently have 2016 SLR2 all be it modified slightly. I've used it on loads of blue trails, Sherwood pines red route and off piste around there, gravel tracks, various bits of cannock and its managed easily and mines not running hydraulic brakes yet. Your choice of the SLR1 is a good one mine has been modified on the gearing and also tyres upped to 42,s for better grip and comfort.


    Yeah the only thing is I’ve had bad experience with apex 1 so hoping rival 1 might be a bit better .
    I found the shifting wasn’t crisp and had general issues however it was on a caadx and convinced it was set up badly from day one . The giant may be a lot better
