Disc or Rim Brakes

The first thing to consider is whether you want to build your bike on rim or disc brakes. These brake types (and wheels, respectively) use different attachment mechanisms to the frame/fork.

If you want a bike with rim brakes, the frame and the fork will be designed for a quick release.

Frames for disc brakes are designed for a thru-axle (also called through-axle). It has to provide threads so the thru-axle can be threaded out of the frame/fork when removing the wheels.

Frame Type

There are several road bike types. However, this article focuses only on endurance, performance, and aero frames to keep things simple.

1. Performance-Oriented

Lightweight performance road frames are ideal for climbers, racers, and people who like thinner frame tube profiles.

Aero frames are suitable for riders who prefer speed over low weight. They are ideal for flat and hilly terrain.

Hybrid frames combine the best features of the performance and aero frames – they are relatively light and aerodynamic at the same time.

2. Endurance Oriented

Endurance road bike frames allow a more upright position that is more comfortable for beginners and people with limited flexibility.

Weight

Frames’ weight will vary depending on the frame type, size, and even the painting.

Complete painting can add around 3.5unces (100g).

Remember that the lightest possible frame may not always be the best choice. Other features, like the stiffness of the frame, are also important.

Stiffness

“The stiffer the frame, the less energy loss, and the faster you ride” applies rather theoretically. The reality is a little bit different.

A stiff frame can make the rider tired faster, especially on rough roads, as it cannot absorb unevenness.

Determining a frame’s stiffness can be difficult without more detailed testing data, which is typically unavailable. As a result, you may have to rely on the manufacturer’s claims or the experiences of others who have tried a frame you are interested in.

Overall, Chinese carbon frames from trusted manufacturers are on par with frames from more well-known brands in terms of stiffness and weight.

Bottom Bracket and Groupset Compatibility

Another thing to consider is the compatibility of the frame with the bottom bracket (BB). There are 2 basic types of bottom brackets – threaded and press fit.

Groupset compatibility is usually simpler, as most modern carbon road bike frames are compatible with mechanical and electronic groupsets from popular brands like Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo.

However, using an electronic groupset on an older frame with external cable routing may not look great.

Size & Color Option

Choosing the right bike size is crucial for riding comfort and injury prevention.

There are several methods for doing so, such as using your height or inseam length or consulting a road bike size chart like the one provided.

For color options, we can offer the possibility of uploading your own design, but this is typically a paid service and not included in the price of the frame.

Remember that the paint job may add around 100g to the frame’s weight, so if weight is important to you, consider buying a frame without any paint job (raw carbon).
