Features
Escape 3 Disc is entirely adaptable and totally fun to ride because to its lightweight ALUXX aluminum frame, upright positioning, and high-quality materials that provide it a smooth, pleasant ride. It now has a premium composite fork* and cutting-edge D-Fuse seatpost. Both are excellent at reducing road turbulence, dampening shocks and vibrations, and providing you with a more comfortable ride. In dry or wet conditions, the disc brakes provide strong stopping power, and the 700c wheels with Giant EasyRide Tubeless tyres (on some models) keep you moving quickly, effectively, and with a lower risk of flats. Additionally, there is clearance for wider tyres up to 45mm in width, which makes it simpler to ride on more difficult terrain. It has built-in mounts so you can add fenders or racks to personalize your journey. Escape Disc is prepared to go, no matter which route you take.
ALUXX-Grade Aluminum
With single-butted tubes and 6061 alloy, this Performance level frame material creates sturdy, lightweight framesets for a variety of bikes and riding styles.
The lightweight Aluxx aluminum frame of the Escape 3 is offered in two different colors and sizes ranging from small to extra large.
These sizes can fit people who are between 5’3″ and 6’5″ tall, with a stand over height that varies from 28.1 to 33 inches high.
D-Fuse Technology
Giant originally introduced their ground-breaking D-Fuse technology in 2014. As a seatpost for high-level cyclocross bikes, it was initially developed because, by dampening shocks and vibrations, it would smooth out the ride and provide the rider more control over challenging terrain. This revolutionary concept is built upon the distinctive “D-shaped” tube with a rounded front and flattened rear part. Following its success in cyclocross, which included numerous world championship victories, D-Fuse was ultimately introduced to endurance road and gravel bikes as well as the front portion of the bicycle. The handlebars add compliance at two critical points of contact along with the seatpost without adding weight or complexity associated with pivots or inserts.
Brakes & Shifters
For the majority of on- and off-street uses, Tektro manual brakes offer powerful stopping capability. The Escape can handle fast stops for traffic lights or pedestrians despite its city configuration, and Tektro gives you the control you require.
The Escape 3 Disc’s adaptable Shimano ST-EF41 shifters enable you adjust whether you’re riding on smooth pavement or uneven country roads.
Even while you might not constantly use every gear, just being aware of its existence gives you more control.

Our Rating
The Escape 3’s ability to carry passengers within cities on a regular basis is its main selling point. However, in milder situations, a rider’s athleticism can take the bike off-road, so you are not limited to sticking to the pavement every day.
The Escape 3 Disc is ready to hit the pavement right out of the box, despite the fact that many riders might wish to upgrade their seatpost, saddle, pedals, and handlebars based on comfort preferences or sizing needs. Even complete beginners can operate this bike with a few minor tweaks and be up and running in no time.
