Size Guide
Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Hassle free returns

Any item (apart from nutrition products) can be returned to us within 28 days of purchase, given the item has not been used or fitted, and is returned in its original packaging with valid proof of purchase.

Online purchases can be returned either in store at Giant Lincoln or returned to us via post.

Customer Returns Form


If you wish to cancel, return or exchange an order please print and complete the returns form below. Place the form inside your return package along with your receipt.




Return Terms & Conditions

Items must be returned in their original packaging and be unused. Refunds will be issued once the products have been received and inspected.

Click & Collect customers: should you decide your item is not right for you, it can be exchanged or refunded straight away in store, or you still have up to 28 days to return it if you take the item away.

If the items we have sent you are faulty, damaged or not as we described, we will cover any associated re-delivery/return postage costs.

Refunds will be processed using the same method of payment used for the original purchase.

We are unable to offer a refund without a valid receipt.

Please see the Terms & Conditions page for full guidance.

Bike Returns – Change of Mind

If you decide you no longer want your bike after delivery, that’s okay — we understand that sometimes things just don’t feel quite right.
However, if the bike is not faulty and has simply been unwanted or ordered in error, you’ll be responsible for returning it to us in unused, original condition (including all packaging, manuals, and accessories).

We can help arrange a collection if needed, but please note that a return charge of £80 will apply to cover the cost of collection and handling. This amount will be deducted from your refund.

Refunds will only be processed once the bike has been received back and inspected. If the bike shows any signs of use or damage beyond what’s necessary to check it over, we may reduce the refund to reflect any loss in value.

This policy does not affect your statutory rights if your bike is faulty or not as described — in those cases, we’ll arrange collection or replacement at no cost to you.

2025 Giant Defy Advanced SL 0 – Endurance Road Redefined

The 2025 Giant Defy Advanced SL 0 is engineered for riders who demand speed, comfort, and control on long rides. Perfect for sportives, gran fondos, and extended solo adventures, this flagship endurance road bike blends lightweight performance with all-day compliance.

Functional Simplicity
Designed without unnecessary complexity, the frameset is among the lightest in its class, delivering an ideal balance of reactivity and comfort for modern endurance riding.

Engineered Compliance
The Advanced SL-grade composite frame and fork are optimized for endurance, providing a smooth, efficient ride that reduces fatigue on long distances. D-Fuse components absorb road shocks and vibrations, keeping you fresh and controlled mile after mile.

Total Control
The Contact D-Fuse handlebar features ergonomic shaping and an 8-degree flare for superior comfort and handling. Wide hookless carbon rims (22.4mm inner width, 40mm depth) accommodate high-volume tubeless tires (up to 38mm), ensuring stability and predictability, even in crosswinds.

Key Highlights:

  • Advanced SL-grade composite frame and fork for lightweight endurance performance

  • D-Fuse seatpost and Contact D-Fuse handlebar for vibration absorption and comfort

  • Hookless carbon rims designed for high-volume tubeless tires

  • Ideal for sportives, gran fondos, and long-distance endurance rides

The 2025 Giant Defy Advanced SL 0 delivers a smooth, efficient, and controlled ride, making it the ultimate endurance road machine.
