Early example of a Giant TCR. Always wanted one of these due to Mike Burrows heavy involvement of their development, as far as I know the Giant TCR is the bike that introduced compact frame geometry. I believe that Mike also developed the adjustable stem, aero carbon seatpost and aero wheels with carbon hubs and carbon core aero spokes. As far as modern bike design goes it was quite radical in my opinion.
Anyway this is a very nice purple anodised version (Triathlon) which is in very good condition with only a few blemishes in the anodising letting the side down (looks worse in the pictures than in reality).
Groupset is complete Shimano Ultegra 6500 9 speed.
Lovely bike aleady a modern classic.
£500 + postage or collection from Kent ME12.
