Fast road riders who want aero on Giant's chart. TCR is the lighter, more conventional sibling.
Giant's aero race bike. Stiffer at the front, more wind-cheating than TCR, still in the same size-letter family so many riders can twin the two.
XC racers and fit riders who want a lightweight 29er, not a trail bike in disguise.
Short-travel XC with Canyon's longer modern reach. It sprints like an XC bike and is less of a downcountry slacker than some 120 mm peers.
Aero road riders on Cube.
Cube aero road. Deeper than Attain, race-leaning.
