Abstract:
The 2007 TCR family, of which there are three models to choose from, are made from the Giant's new T800 carbon. It's a higher modulus [stiffer grade - ed.] than the previous T700 grade of carbon, and utilises the latest development in carbon, nano-technology. The process involves using carbon nanotubes (tubes made from bundles of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal layout, like the pattern on a football) impregnated into the resin mix. The end result is an improved stiffness-to-weight ratio.
