Welcome to Team Giant

Giant is a global bicycle company, dedicated to bringing you the finest bicycles for over thirty years. The Giant brand is sold throughout Europe, the Pacific Rim and North America by Giant Professional Cycling Retailers. Just about anywhere you go, you’ll find Giant Bicycles.

We may be big, but it’s the local touch from our dealers that provides the assistance that will make your ride safe and fun. Authorized Giant Dealers are the only place in the U.S. and Canada where you can buy the Giant product of your choice. We are dedicated to the independent bicycle dealers in your community because they are the most professional and best-qualified source to assure your bike’s mechanical integrity, guarantee proper fit, give you proper advice on where and when to ride, consult with you about safety (including selection and proper fit of a helmet), properly assemble and install accessories, and to communicate anything and everything else you need to know about the grand sport of cycling!

Our employees and Professional Cycling Retailers are justifiably proud of our international reputation for the highest-quality bicycle products and service. We have spent the last three decades learning our craft and winning multiple awards for excellence along the way.

Giant makes a bike for every member of the family, for every stage of their lives, on any kind of terrain. Our contributions to cycling encompass every facet of the sport and lifestyle, from transportation to recreation to competition. At Giant, we believe that the bicycle is more than just a machine. We believe that it is an integral component of society, a friend, and a way to explore your personal boundaries. We're proud to know that we have contributed to a healthy lifestyle for millions of people all around the world.
