Bike frames – what do I need to know?

A good bike frame is the foundation of every good sports bike. But how do you know what makes a good frame? Well, first and foremost it must be stable and relatively lightweight. Secondly, it is important that bike frames are also stiff enough to conduct the rider's pedalling energy into propulsion without loss. Finally, it must absorb ground vibrations in order to guarantee optimum comfort. Of course, the first, and most important, decision you have to make is what material your bike frame should be made out of.

Buying bike frames: the options?

The choice of frame material is key. Steel frames are quite heavy, but offer optimum durability and comfort. Aluminium, on the other hand, offers excellent stiffness and stands out because of its low weight. Carbon fibre composite, which is quite expensive to manufacture, represents a superior lightweight construction material. Carbon frames offer unrivalled stability at a low weight. This, along with its damping properties, make carbon likely to be the way of the future when it comes to bike frame construction.

Bike frames at bikester.co.uk – your online bike shop

Aside the choice of material, a frame's geometry also has a significant impact on a bicycle's handling. Seat angle, steering angle and wheel base are important variables in determining a cycle's agility and its ability to navigate obstacles. At bikester.co.uk, your online bike shop, you will find a range of top brands. In our collection you will find Rocky Mountain MTB frames, Nox cycles MTB frames and Time racing bike frames.
