Thanks for the reply, Peter. I have to say that I’m relieved to hear that, on balance, you’d probably still put the TCR ahead of the Propel for most riders, even if the difference is now only a marginal one. I recently bought a TCR Advanced SL 0, and have been wondering ever since if I made a mistake, and should have gone for the Propel instead. But I can take some comfort in your assessment!

Enjoyed the review. How would you compare the Giant Propel Advanced SL 0 to the Giant TCR Advanced SL 0 in terms of speed, stiffness, handling, comfort, etc.? Which would you choose for all-round road riding?
