Can someone tell me what the angle is on the Giant TCR Aero 1 bike? I can't seem to find it anywhere...

I think you might be able to use trig to figure that one out...but honestly, why do you need to know the rear triange angle? what purpose does it serve? I think the seat angle is 75 degrees, and the head angles vary from 71 to 72.5 and I think thats is all that really matters when you are riding.

I could be wrong though...I'm sorta curios...

I meant to ask what the seat angle is. Sorry! But thanks for the info. You said you think it's 75 degrees. Does anybody know for sure?

Here's the link with the geometry for the TCR Aero 1 from 2003. If you happen to be browsing the giant site, there's a small link under the picture that shows angles and lengths.

and just so you can see the page that it came from:
