When introduced by Giant in 1990s, Compact Road revolutionized the look and feel of high-performance road bikes forever. A downward sloping toptube (from the headtube to the seattube) creates smaller front and rear triangles for a lighter, stiffer bike. It also makes it easier for riders of all sizes to have a perfect fit.

The proprietary “D” shaped composite seatpost damps vibration, resulting in a smooth, compliant ride.

A proven “single-pivot” design that uses the flexing action of the chainstay/seatstay junction to produce a lightweight and durable suspension system with 4.7 inches/120mm of rear travel.

Developed as a superlight rear suspension setup for XC bikes that demand efficiency, control and responsive handling, FlexPoint Pro is a linkage-driven, single-pivot system that delivers 115mm of rear-wheel travel. It’s engineered with a full-composite swingarm that significantly reduces overall frame weight.

This all-new technology allows you to quickly adjust the geometry of your bike to better suit riding conditions and rear-wheel size choice. Using two different flip chips – a combination high/ low and a dedicated mid-position chip – riders can change the head tube angle, seat tube angle and bottom bracket height using eccentric hardware located on the upper rocker arm of the rear suspension.

The flip chip allows riders to quickly adjust the geometry of their Maestro-equipped mountain bike to better suit how and where they ride. It lets riders change the headtube/seattube angles and bottom bracket height via eccentric (offset, two-position) hardware located on the upper rocker arm.

Allows riders to quickly adjust the geometry and rear-wheel tire clearance with eccentric, offset two-position hardware in the rear wheel dropouts.

Designed as a key performance factor in the overall frameset, the integrated seatpost saves up to 45 grams compared to standard composite posts, while improving aerodynamics and adding road-smoothing compliance.

A lightweight, all-internal seatpost locking mechanism provides confident clamping force with clean performance and aesthetics.

Hookless rim design enhances overall durability and offers a wider inner rim width without adding extra weight. It also helps to create a rounder tire shape providing superior grip and handling as well as added sidewall support when cornering.

Hybrid Cycling Technology is a system that combines electric power with human power to produce the most efficient, powerful and natural E-bike riding experience. It’s a seamless extension of a rider’s own power that sets Liv and Giant E-bikes apart from other “electric” bicycles. The system consists of four key innovative technologies that work in unison with your own body’s power output—a seamless extension of your own capabilities.

Liv's new 6-sensor Smart Assist technology provides the most versatile and natural riding experience across diverse terrain and riding styles. Used in all SyncDrive motors, this technology listens to you then tells the motor how to best respond. Translating six measurements about your riding, this adds the perfect amount of power at just the right time. The result is an extremely fluid riding experience that feels like riding a standard bike but with so much more “oomph.”

Torque Sensor

The torque sensor continuously reads your pedaling input and adds the ideal support from the motor in a seamless, perfectly timed power boost that is proportional to your effort.

Speed Sensor

The speed sensor factors in the speed the rider is traveling.

Motor Rotation Sensor

Allows the motor to run as smoothly and seamlessly as possible.

Slope Detection Sensor 

Calculates how steep of a hill you are riding and is able to automatically adjust power output to make climbing a breeze.

Accelerometer Sensor

Measures the amount of acceleration or deceleration the bike experiences based on your input.

The PedalPlus 4-sensor technology system combines speed and torque sensors with motor and pedal rotation sensors to produce consistent power across the entire gear range. It precisely measures the amount of force a rider is applying to the pedals so that the motor delivers a seamless power boost.

The Mips® BPS (Brain Protection System) is designed to add protection in helmets against the rotational motion. The rotational motion is a combination of rotational energy (angular velocity) and rotational forces (from angular acceleration) that both affects the brain and increases the risk for minor and severe brain injuries. Mips® BPS has been scientifically proven to reduce rotational motion when implemented in a helmet by absorbing and redirecting rotational energies and forces transferred to the brain.

Mips Air Node™ is a super light and slim helmet security system that moves 10-15 mm in relation to the helmet’s energy-absorbing layer, reducing the rotational forces that are otherwise transmitted to the brain during impact. Fully integrated into the helmet’s padding, Mips Air Node™ is as light as possible and designed to fit each individual helmet model and size, making it virtually invisible until needed.

Magnetic Fidlock® helmet buckles are intuitive, pinch-free and can be opened or closed with one hand, even while wearing gloves.

A tailor-made feel is now achievable through Particle Flow Technology, which are free-flowing particles are inserted into two separate pockets within the saddle structure.
