Giant Propel Advanced SL Frameset Howlite Bike

The Propel Advanced SL Frameset in Howlite is your foundation for a dream aero build.

This is frame-and-fork only. The top-tier Propel platform for the rider or wrench who wants to spec every component their own way. Advanced SL-grade carbon and full aero integration give you a race-ready canvas. Build it for the L.A. River path, a Valley crit, or your next season of racing, and start with the best chassis Giant makes.

It's right for you if:

• You're a builder who wants to choose your own groupset and wheels.

• You're upgrading a favorite drivetrain onto a faster, lighter frame.

• You want the flagship aero platform without paying for a complete build.

• Full aero tube shaping means real free speed once you build it up.

• Integrated routing keeps cables hidden for a factory-clean finish.

• Disc-brake, thru-axle standard for modern stopping power and stiffness.

• The Howlite colorway is a distinctive, understated stone-white finish.

Highlights

AeroSystem Shaping

This is the exact aero platform the pros race, tuned through wind-tunnel testing and airflow analysis to stay fast at every wind angle. Start here and you are building on a proven race chassis.

Advanced SL-Grade Composite

Giant's flagship composite is 225 grams lighter than the last generation, so your finished build starts from a serious weight advantage. Every gram you save here is one you never have to fight uphill.

OverDrive Aero Steerer

The full-composite steerer delivers sharp, confident steering when you throw the bike into a corner. It is the front-end stiffness a race build deserves.

Integrated Seatpost

The built-in seatpost trims weight and cleans up the tail of the bike for better airflow. It rounds out a frameset made to be raced, not just admired.

Blank Canvas Build

As a frameset, this is your foundation for a fully custom Propel spec'd exactly how you ride. Steve and Brian can help you build it right the first time.
