I've owned the 2020 SuperSix Ultegra for almost a year now, I have to say it is the best bike I've ever owned. Just amazing, fast, compliant, corners and descends like a dream. However, I would not mind trying the TCR!

[@gregmorrison7320]

I'm a Cannondale fan but not a fan of the dropped stays, never owned a Giant before but this year I went with the TCR, the value it offered was too much to resist.

[@sbccbc7471]

Giant TCR Advanced: Compatible with any groupset, Di2-ready out-of-the-box (relevant hardware and silicone plugs are included with the bike), no proprietary cockpit, satisfactory ride feedback. There's not much to fault about this bike. And I'll definitely take the previous-gen SuperSix EVO with rim brakes any day, just like the Cannondale I used to know.

[@kenharris9751]

I'm on my 2nd TCR nd am looking no further. I've been riding since 1980 and have been on many different brands of bikes. I have been in the bicycle industry for 35 years and I have not found a better bargain bicycle than the Giant TCR. Performance and ride quality are where it is at. Thanks, Giant!

I’m a bit of a Giant fanboy given my last 4 bikes have all been Giant so it’s no surprise that I’d pick a TCR. I think Giant consistently produce good bikes for sensible money which is why I’ve kept buying them. That said, if anyone has a Canondale going free I wouldn’t refuse it!

I'd go for the Cannondale too. But, I just love Cannondales anyway. The Cannondale does look better in my opinion too.

[@sbellidog]

I recommend the videos from "Luescher Teknik" about the design failure of the SuperSix. Long story short, they have built a headset movement limiter within the fork crown that hits the frame itself when that limit is reached. Not sure if C'dale has acknowledged the failure yet, and if they are going to do anything to solve it.

[@faosa73]

exactly, I would go with the evo, but this problem is unacceptable

[@hornet224]

I bought the 2022 Cannondale CAAD13 105 Hydro Disk for $2200 USA. It has the same frame profile as the $4500 Supersix EVO, but C1 Smartform alloy frame, and DT Swiss aluminum wheels. Cost 1/2 as much and maybe 95% as good as the EVO. This bike is still far above my skill level and a Best Buy.

[@stanislavkindiakov6334]

Haha, I got new TCR Advanced 1 for 1970 Euro, it has even better value for money 😅

[@Thomas-fy9yc]

I actually picked up both, the 2021 TCR advanced pro O and a 2022 Supersix Evo in the last week. Returning the TCR. Supersix has a little less aggressive stack, better finish, and more comfy ride. At this price point, I think that most are significantly less price sensitive than new buyers. Also in the USA, most of the riders I rode with had no idea that Giant made anything more than entry level bikes…🤔. I had to convince them it was a serious bike.

[@marcustan5868]

[@lyang0411]

Interesting with the last part of your statement. I live very very close to a Trek regional hub. People around here are familiar with the big 3: Giant Trek and Specialized.

[@Emjay1950]

I love my 2014 Giant TCR, it's light, it's nimble and it's red, black and white paint scheme is the best. But I am getting on in years and am switching to a comfort bike, the TCR Defy Advanced with its smaller 34/50 crankset and its 11/34 cassette, both of which combine to facilitate climbing those more difficult hills.

[@4466ssss4]

I own a systemsix Hi-mod and I find it very comfortable, more than my old 2013 synapse. I tested a Giant Defy few days ago, with big tubeless tires (30 or 32), and I felt the road like crazy. I ride my systemsix with tubetype GP5000 at 6,5-7 bars and the road cracks are damped through the whole bike. With the Defy, an endurance bike, I felt everything in the handlebar. It seems that Cannondale damps with the whole frame, but Giant do it with the seat post and mostly from the rear. It was a strange feeling, I did not like it. I would like to test the TCR but my guess is the supersix is more comfortable. The sad truth about bikes : it's easier to test a Porsche or a Mercedes than a carbon road bike. We have to rely on youtube to make a choice !

[@marcpost4034]

Owned a 2017 TCR Advanced Pro 0 and just bought a new Supersix Evo Ultegra. Supersix is way more comfortable on long rides and handles great. Supersix wins for me. Hookless rims are a no go for me.

[@HybrisParExcellence]

Great bikes but I don't get the cable routing entering the frame on top of the downtube. I just cannot get used to the looks of it.

[@DaveCM]

It doesn't look as clean. It kind of looks to me that they did it so they only have to have one opening made which can be the Di2 junction box location or the entry for mechanical cables.

Both bikes are fantastic but different from each other. I rode both bikes last year. The tcr is equipped with a 52/36 crank and much more a racing bike for the peloton. Stiff with high aero wheels. the sse offers more comfort with 50/34 crank and much more pleasant to climb with. I like them both

[@dominikk7237]

Overall (probably) what you get for the money, TCR is the best bike on the market, period. I have TCR 2015 and don't thing about a change in the near future. The geometry of the frame, carbon quality, aerodynamic, handling are superb! I have ridden many top bikes while being on holiday (rental)...still TCR is my choice...great all-around bike, fast on flat and in the mountains. I have no knowledge about Cannondale, but I like TCR geometry more...and those extra 500g of Evo.....it is a lot of grams.

[@stanislavkindiakov6334]

You are so right! Now they tell us that 500g is nothing, but when manufacturer cut just 200g from the frame, he asks double the price!

That said, the only problem with the TCR is that it’s too damn common. Literally you can blindly throw a stone and will probably hit someone on a giant on the course. So I sold it, and am now deciding between either the dogma F or the sl7. Great bike. But not a bike that makes me happy owning one if that makes sense. So between the two, it’s certainly the supersix for me.

[@turbovizsla]

I have put several 100 miles on both of these bikes in recent months and I must say there is one huge difference. The way they take power. If you can lay down some watts the TCR is going to feel like an angry snake beneath when you apply some power to the pedals. The bottom bracket and frame twist and shout, impersonating wet linguine at an Italian karaoke night. I was very disappointed in how the TCR felt under acceleration. The Supersix felt like every other Supersix I've ridden, snappy and taking that power and turning it into speed.

[@NewEnglandDirtRoadie]

are there no carbon productions bikes with external cable routing anymore?

[@mattk8810]

Pretty much no. Wireless is starting to become affordable so bikes are shifting away from that. No harm in buying an older model frame.

[@sbccbc7471]

If you're talking about full external routing (like the ones on 20th-century road bikes, but they're actually just called external routing), not on mass-production carbon road bikes at least. If you're talking about traditional internal routing (where internal routing starts from the down tube and this is NOT called as external routing), usually the less expensive ones still have it.

[@astrayagrarian]

How about neither???

[@user-hu9ms8sq2r]

I'm leaning towards the Giant but I am 2m tall with a 100 cm inseam and I think it'll run a bit small. Any road race bike to recommend? My bike fitter couldn't think of anything and I'm getting tired of riding a track bike which is also too small (60cm Dolan PreCursa)

[@sbccbc7471]

The SuperSix EVO's shift and brake lines can be fully internally routed with integrated cockpits, only the TCR Advanced isn't capable of that. But it's not such a bad thing as that calls for greater cockpit compatibility.

[@AlexTampa-zn9xo]

Almost and impossible decision to make. But! The TCR it is.

[@mrtnknrr]

Basically the conclusion is that there is no real winner. For price/quality Giant wins, but purely on performance Cannondale wins. Where Cannondale wins as well in my opinion is that during the last 3 decades they have been the #1 pioneer in bicycle innovations. It's not just that they win all independent tests for example for frame stiffness and aerodynamics, but the money you spend goes in R&D to make bikes even better, compared to Giant where your money doesn't go to bringing bikes to the next level, but rather in optimizing the cost structure. In my opinion it's not strange that with all the money Cannondale spends on R&D, you pay a slightly higher price tag.

[@jkk916]

Man is that supersix heavy. My caad12 was below 8 kg and it cost me around 1600 €.

[@mrtnknrr]

A Caad12 105 (rim brake version) in 58cm was 8,3kg without pedals. But it comes with heavy wheels, heavy tyres and the 105 group set is heavy as well. I swapped these parts I've mentioned and my Caad12 is now sitting on 7,3kg, but will be sub 7kg later this year after some more upgrades.

[@jkk916]

@@mrtnknrr Wheels and also seatpost on Caad12 were heavy AF. My Caad12 Ultegra (54 cm) is now 7.4 kg with pedals and bottle cages. And I use relatively heavy carbon fiber clincher wheelset (around 1700 g). No fancy stuff on that bicycle. I also changed seatpost (it was cheap), handlebars and seat (I would do that anyway no matter the weight). I also have different stem but there is no way to loose significant weight by changing it. It is crazy how easier and cheaper is to get to 6.8 kg with a rim brake bicycle. Excuses for buying disc brake bike like "rim brakes are destroying rims" and "I want to save money on my expensive wheelset" always crack me up.

[@zwamman]

4K for an 8.1kg non-aero bike with mechanical shifting, dodgy crankset, from a manufacturer known to produce frames with sub-par quality control. The bike industry has truly lost the plot over these past years.

A question to all...looking for one bike to rule them all so which one of these would fit the bill? I do a bit more climbing than flats mind you. Cheers!

[@sbccbc7471]

I'd take the TCR Advanced. The SuperSix EVO has a steel bump stop at the fork's crown, which if it hits the frame hard from a sudden steering input in, say, a crash, it can cause cracks at the bottom of the head tube (refer to Luescher Tecnik's video about this, but the one he had on hand is bladed, one of the ones I personally see is round).
