Anyway, I updated the photo links in my original post for better pics of my bike and cockpit.

2016 Defy Advanced 3
Here's mine:
More than I can ask for in features, performance, stiffness, and compliance. Not content to keep things factory spec, I upgraded from the stock Tiagra to Ultegra 6800 shifters and rear derailleur, 6700 crankset, and 105 5800 cassette. Swapped out stock saddle for a Fabric Line. Biggest performance upgrade was the switch to tubeless Schwalbe Pro One tires and A-Class CXD4 wheelset. It's great to join the family!

This was my first "real" road bike. Loved this bike and if my Spooky ever dies I'll be back on the Giant train.

Not the best photo, but I don't have a smart phone, so I used my works ipod, lol... I'm digging the look of the blue tires with the bike. They're Rubino Pro G+, alright tires, but I've already got a deep cut in them in less than a week. I should buy my next set of tires before it's destroyed. The second drink bottle went on too, only used it for one ride so far, but if I take it out for longer rides in summer it will be very much needed.

2016 Giant SCR 2
My return to the road bikes (since an un-branded steel framed bike that I had when I was a teenager), a new SCR 2 has arrived yesterday at home.
AluxX aluminium frame and fork, 50/34 Ounce Prowheel compact crankset, Shimano Claris 8-speed drivetrain (12-25) and Tektro brakes is a basic but reliable equipment.
Because the weather, I can't ride my new beauty yet... but I'm very happy with her
Regards

Hi,
I have a 2016 Defy Disc 1. I need to replace the freehub and rear bearings but I am having trouble finding a parts source. Hoping someone here knows of source.
Thanks
Rich

I bought a 2018 Contend SL Disc 1...I am loving this bike, my first ever road bike. My next bike is definitely going to be a race road bike instead of an all-arounder.

I bought a 2017 Defy Advanced Pro 1 in the summer and really loving it. Subsequently, cooler weather is coming now and road conditions will soon not be as optimal for the road tires so my local store gave me a great deal and I picked up their last 2017 Anyroad CoMax as well.
Really like Giant as my first bike back in 2014 was a Seek 3 and now I've upgraded and got hooked on cycling!
