Endurance Power with a Performance Edge
The 2025 Giant Defy Advanced E+ Elite 2 combines long-distance comfort with lightweight electric performance. Featuring a carbon endurance frame, integrated battery, and discreet rear-hub motor, it delivers a refined, road-focused e-bike experience designed for riders who want to go further, faster, and in more comfort.
Smooth, Intelligent Assistance
At the heart of the bike is Giant’s SyncDrive Move Plus hub motor, delivering 30 Nm of torque with the smooth, quiet operation that defines the Defy series. Using Smart Assist technology, the motor automatically adapts to your pedalling input and terrain, providing a seamless and natural-feeling boost without disrupting cadence or balance.
Clean Integration & User-Friendly Control
The 400 Wh EnergyPak battery is fully integrated into the down tube, maintaining the bike’s sleek aesthetic while offering reliable range for long rides. Compatibility with a 200 Wh range extender adds extra distance when needed. The RideControl GO LED interface on the top tube provides easy access to power modes and battery status at a glance, keeping the cockpit clean and uncluttered.
Comfort & Capability for Every Road
Endurance geometry, D-Fuse carbon handlebars, and a D-Fuse seatpost work together to absorb road chatter and reduce rider fatigue. With clearance for tyres up to 38 mm, the Defy Advanced E+ Elite 2 is as comfortable on rough backroads as it is on smooth tarmac. Paired with SRAM’s wireless electronic drivetrain and powerful hydraulic disc brakes, it’s built to deliver all-day performance in any conditions.
