The Defy Advanced E+ AR is the ideal choice for performance-minded road riders.

With its composite frameset, integrated pedal assistance, and high-quality components including wireless electronic shifting, the Defy Advanced E+ Elite AR is designed for performance-minded road riders seeking added capabilities to ride farther and faster. This model comes with 38mm wide Giant CrossCut AT tyres for added versatility on rough roads and gravel. The new SyncDrive Move Plus motor, which delivers up to 30Nm of support (equivalent to 75Nm with a mid-drive motor) in a lightweight, quiet system, is cleanly integrated into the rear hub and features five support levels and Smart Assist technology to determine optimal pedalling support for a smooth, natural riding experience. The system is powered by the EnergyPak 400 battery, which provides powerful support in an integrated, lightweight package.

The SyncDrive Move Plus motor is integrated into the rear hub and delivers 30Nm of power directly to the rear wheel. Weighing just 1.7kg, it’s specially tuned for the pedalling pattern of performance road riding, with minimal energy loss and more torque at higher speeds. The result is a natural feel when accelerating or maintaining steady power at speed, and no motor drag while freewheeling or coasting.

The down tube integrated EnergyPak 400 battery system weighs just 2.3kg and is purpose-built for the specific needs of E-bikes. A top tube mounted RideControl Go button makes it quick and easy to turn the E-bike on or off and change power modes. Smart Assist technology uses three sensors to precisely measure the power being applied to the pedals and produce just the right amount of support for a smooth, natural ride experience.
