With its composite frame integrated pedal assistance and high-quality components including wireless electronic shifting the Defy Advanced E+ Elite is designed for performance-minded road riders seeking added capabilities to ride farther and faster. 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 offers five support levels plus 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. Key Performance Factors SEAMLESS POWER The SyncDrive Move Plus motor is integrated into the rear hub and delivers 30Nm of power equivalent to 75Nm with a mid-drive motor 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. SYSTEM INTEGRATION 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. All models feature SRAM wireless electronic shifters and an integrat PURE ROAD PERFORMANCE A lightweight composite frameset and high-performance components including a D-Fuse seatpost and handlebars for compliance integrated WheelSystems with tubeless tyres and a wireless electronic drivetrain all add up to a smooth efficient ride quality that mirrors the award-winning performance of the Defy endurance road bike range. Advanced Composite Technology Giant’s High Performance Grade raw carbon material is used to produce this custom frame material in our own composite factory with a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The front triangle of these framesets is assembled and molded as one continuous piece in a proprietary manufacturing process called Modified Monocoque Construction. Smart Assist All SyncDrive motors have Smart Assist technology which adjusts the support to match the rider’s needs. By using information from multiple sensors both rider input and terrain feedback are used to determine the optimal amount of pedaling assistance. SyncDrive is the only e-bike system that utilizes both rider input and terrain feedback. It gives you a smooth natural riding experience with ample power when you need it while also conserving power when you don’t need as much. Energypak Giant’s latest EnergyPak battery systems feature streamlined designs that are integrated with the E-bike for a sleek and modern profile. Giant E-bikes offer several different EnergyPak options including the EnergyPak Smart and EnergyPak. Each one is designed to optimize the E-bike experience for a specific style of riding. D-Fuse Technology The D-Fuse seatpost and handlebar were designed to function as a system absorbing road shocks and vibrations so you can ride farther faster. RideControl App The updated RideControl App expands the existing customization options for your SyncDrive motor. Now you choose exactly how you want the system to perform. You can use the app to adjust from the battery-saving Eco mode all the way up to Power mode and collect all relevant ride metrics during your activity. SyncDrive Move Plus The new SyncDrive Move Plus motor delivers 30Nm of torque which is comparable to 75Nm of torque in a mid-drive motor—all in a lightweight quiet system that’s fully integrated into the rear hub. It features five support levels plus Smart Assist technology which can automatically adjust pedaling support without having to change settings while riding. The motor uses sensors to constantly adjust output based on advanced algorithms. E+ System E+ System combines electric power with human power to produce a smart natural and powerful E-bike riding experience. It’s an integrated group of technologies that includes our RideControl control units EnergyPak battery systems and SyncDrive motors.
