Looks excellent. As @guadzilla notes, Giants usually offer excellent value, and this model comes with as much as anyone really should ever need (and yes, that is an opinion.)

Thios compares with the Contend men’s model, which I researched quite a bit before buying a different Al-frame, CF-fork disc endurance-frame bike. It was a lcose choice, because the Giant is a great bike.

105 (and this is the latest, 8000 series) has 99 percent of the performance of the more expensive Ultegra group, and is truly a joy to ride. The gear range will take you from 33 mph on the flats to up a ridiculously steep hill, the brakes will stop you immediately with little pressure.

The bike lacks nothing.

IMO.
